We develop an algorithmic framework for graph colouring that reduces the problem to verifying a local probabilistic property of the independent sets. With this we give, for any fixed $k\ge 3$ and $\varepsilon>0$, a randomised…
It was proved by Ron Graham and the second author that for any coloring of the $N \times N$ grid using fewer than $\log \log N$ colours, one can always find a monochromatic isosceles right triangle, a triangle with vertex coordinates $(x,…
For a simple graph G = (V, E), a coloring of vertices of G using two colors, say red and blue, is called a quasi neighborhood balanced coloring if, for every vertex of the graph, the number of red neighbors and the number of blue neighbors…
Graph matching, also known as network alignment, refers to finding a bijection between the vertex sets of two given graphs so as to maximally align their edges. This fundamental computational problem arises frequently in multiple fields…
The problem of vertex coloring in random graphs is studied using methods of statistical physics and probability. Our analytical results are compared to those obtained by exact enumeration and Monte-Carlo simulations. We critically discuss…
Regular colored graphs are dual representations of pure colored D-dimensional complexes. These graphs can be classified with respect to an integer, their degree, much like maps are characterized by the genus. We analyse the structure of…
The reconfiguration graph $\mathcal{C}_k(G)$ for the $k$-colourings of a graph $G$ has a vertex for each proper $k$-colouring of $G$, and two vertices of $\mathcal{C}_k(G)$ are adjacent precisely when those $k$-colourings differ on a single…
Let $r\geq2$ and $r$ be even. An $r$-hypergraph $G$ on $n$ vertices is called odd-colorable if there exists a map $\varphi:[n]\rightarrow\lbrack r]$ such that for any edge $\{j_{1},j_{2},\cdots,j_{r}\}$ of $G$, we have…
The paper considers the NP-hard graph vertex coloring problem, which differs from traditional problems in which it is required to color vertices with a given (or minimal) number of colors so that adjacent vertices have different colors. In…
For integers r and k > 0(k>r),a conditional (k, r)-coloring of a graph G is a proper k-coloring of G such that every vertex v of G has at least min{r,d(v)} differently colored neighbors, where d(v) is the degree of v. In this note, for…
We discuss representations and colorings of orthogonality hypergraphs in terms of their two-valued states interpretable as classical truth assignments. Such hypergraphs, if they allow for a faithful orthogonal representation, have quantum…
A coloured graph is k-ultrahomogeneous if every isomorphism between two induced subgraphs of order at most k extends to an automorphism. A coloured graph is t-tuple regular if the number of vertices adjacent to every vertex in a set S of…
A proper conflict-free colouring of a graph is a colouring of the vertices such that any two adjacent vertices receive different colours, and for every non-isolated vertex $v$, some colour appears exactly once on the neighbourhood of $v$.…
The chromatic number $\chi(G)$ of a graph $G$, that is, the smallest number of colors required to color the vertices of $G$ so that no two adjacent vertices are assigned the same color, is a classic and extensively studied parameter. Here…
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…
Let G = (V, E) be a multigraph without loops and for any x {\in}V let E(x) be the set of edges of G incident to x. A homogeneous edge-coloring of G is an assignment of an integer m >= 2 and a coloring c:E {\to} S of the edges of…
We consider the problem of existence of perfect $2$-colorings (equitable $2$-partitions) of Hamming graphs with given parameters. We start with conditions on parameters of graphs and colorings that are necessary for their existence. Next we…
Recently, it was proved that triangle-free intersection graphs of $n$ line segments in the plane can have chromatic number as large as $\Theta(\log\log n)$. Essentially the same construction produces $\Theta(\log\log n)$-chromatic…
We consider the polychromatic coloring problems for unions of two or more geometric hypergraphs on the same vertex sets of points in the plane. We show, inter alia, that the union of bottomless rectangles and horizontal strips does in…
A clique colouring of a graph is a colouring of the vertices so that no maximal clique is monochromatic (ignoring isolated vertices). The smallest number of colours in such a colouring is the clique chromatic number. In this paper, we study…
