The harmonious chromatic number of a graph $G$ is the minimum number of colors that can be assigned to the vertices of $G$ in a proper way such that any two distinct edges have different color pairs. This paper gives various results on…
Let $G$ be an edge-colored graph. A rainbow (heterochromatic, or multicolored) path of $G$ is such a path in which no two edges have the same color. Let the color degree of a vertex $v$ be the number of different colors that are used on the…
Total coloring of a graph is a coloring of its vertices and edges such that adjacent or incident elements receive distinct colors. Total coloring conjecture (stipulating that the total chromatic number of a graph $G$ is at most…
Given an integer $1\leq j <n$, define the $(j)$-coloring of a $n$-dimensional hypercube $H_{n}$ to be the $2$-coloring of the edges of $H_{n}$ in which all edges in dimension $i$, $1\leq i \leq j$, have color $1$ and all other edges have…
Graph colorings is a fundamental topic in graph theory that require an assignment of labels (or colors) to vertices or edges subject to various constraints. We focus on the harmonious coloring of a graph, which is a proper vertex coloring…
Given an edge-coloring of a simple graph, assign to every vertex $v$ a set $S_v$ comprised of the colors used on the edges incident to $v$. The $k$-intersection chromatic index of a graph is the minimum $t$ such that the edge set can be…
A wheel graph consists of a cycle along with a center vertex connected to every vertex in the cycle. In this paper we show that every subgraph of a wheel graph has list coupled chromatic number at most 5, and this coloring can be found in…
We examine the measurable chromatic number of distance colorings on the surface of 2-dimensional spheres of varying radii, showing in particular that similar arguments to those used to raise lower bounds in the plane work for all but a…
In this paper we find chromatic numbers of distance graphs $G(n,3,2)$ for infinitely many n. Also we improve upper bound for $\chi(G(n,r,s))$ in large part of cases.
The problem of finding the minimum number of colors to color a graph properly without containing any bicolored copy of a fixed family of subgraphs has been widely studied. Most well-known examples are star coloring and acyclic coloring of…
The four-color theorem states that no more than four colors are required to color all nodes in planar graphs such that no two adjacent nodes are of the same color. The theorem was first propounded by Francis Guthrie in 1852. Since then,…
An injective coloring of a graph is a vertex coloring where two vertices with common neighbor receive distinct colors. The minimum integer $k$ that $G$ has a $k-$injective coloring is called injective chromatic number of $G$ and denoted by…
I argue that there is no 4-chromatic planar graph with a joinable pair of color identical vertices, i.e., given a 4-chromatic planar graph G and a pair of vertices {u, v} in G, if the color of u equals the color of v in every 4-coloring of…
We prove that the two-colouring number of any planar graph is at most 8. This resolves a question of Kierstead et al. [SIAM J. Discrete Math.~23 (2009), 1548--1560]. The result is optimal.
We study the infinite graph of $n$-dimensional rectangular grid that doesn't appear distance regular and the distance regular colorings of this graph, which are defined as the distance colorings with respect to completely regular codes. It…
We study a model of random graph where vertices are $n$ i.i.d. uniform random points on the unit sphere $S^d$ in $\mathbb{R}^{d+1}$, and a pair of vertices is connected if the Euclidean distance between them is at least $2- \epsilon$. We…
The packing chromatic number of a graph is the minimum number of colors for which the graph admits a packing coloring. This distance-based parameter may change under local structural modifications of the graph. In this paper, we introduce…
We introduce a variant of the vertex-distinguishing edge coloring problem, where each edge is assigned a subset of colors. The label of a vertex is the union of the sets of colors on edges incident to it. In this paper we investigate the…
The packing chromatic number $\chi_{\rho}(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the smallest integer $k$ such that there exists a $k$-vertex coloring of $G$ in which any two vertices receiving color $i$ are at distance at least $i+1$. It is proved that in…
