A majority edge-coloring of a graph without pendant edges is a coloring of its edges such that, for every vertex $v$ and every color $\alpha$, there are at most as many edges incident to $v$ colored with $\alpha$ as with all other colors.…

We propose the notion of a majority $k$-edge-coloring of a graph $G$, which is an edge-coloring of $G$ with $k$ colors such that, for every vertex $u$ of $G$, at most half the edges of $G$ incident with $u$ have the same color. We show the…

We say that an edge colouring breaks an automorphism if some edge is mapped to an edge of a different colour. We say that the colouring is distinguishing if it breaks every non-identity automorphism. We show that such colouring can be…

An edge-colouring of a graph is distinguishing, if the only automorphism which preserves the colouring is the identity. It has been conjectured that all but finitely many connected, finite, regular graphs admit a distinguishing…

We say that a vertex or edge colouring of a graph is distinguishing if the only automorphism that preserves this colouring is the identity. A (proper) distinguishing colouring is irreducible if there is no possibility of merging two…

An edge colouring of a graph is called distinguishing if there is no non-trivial automorphism which preserves it. We prove that every at most countable, finite or infinite, connected regular graph of order at least $7$ admits a…

An edge-coloring of a graph is called asymmetric if the only automorphism which preserves it is the identity. Lehner, Pil\'{s}niak, and Stawiski proved that all connected regular graphs except $K_2$ admit an asymmetric edge-coloring with…

A {\bf $\mathbf{k}$-majority coloring} of a digraph $D=(V,A)$ is a coloring of $V$ with $k$ colors so that each vertex $v\in V$ has at least as many out-neighbours of color different from its own color as it has out-neighbours with the same…

Call a colouring of a graph distinguishing, if the only colour preserving automorphism is the identity. A conjecture of Tucker states that if every automorphism of a graph $G$ moves infinitely many vertices, then there is a distinguishing…

An edge coloring of a graph $G$ is to color all the edges in the graph such that adjacent edges receive different colors. It is acyclic if each cycle in the graph receives at least three colors. Fiam{\v{c}}ik (1978) and Alon, Sudakov and…

A \emph{majority coloring} of a digraph is a coloring of its vertices such that for each vertex $v$, at most half of the out-neighbors of $v$ has the same color as $v$. A digraph $D$ is \emph{majority $k$-choosable} if for any assignment of…

An adjacent vertex distinguishing edge colouring of a graph $G$ without isolated edges is its proper edge colouring such that no pair of adjacent vertices meets the same set of colours in $G$. We show that such colouring can be chosen from…

An edge-weighting of a graph is called vertex-coloring if the weighted degrees yield a proper vertex coloring of the graph. It is conjectured that for every graph without isolated edge, a vertex-coloring edge-weighting with the set {1,2,3}…

A majority coloring of a directed graph is a vertex coloring in which each vertex has the same color as at most half of its out-neighbors. In this note we simplify some proof techniques and generalize previously known results on various…

Inspired by the majority colorings and C-colorings, we introduce and study the majority C-coloring of graphs. In such a vertex coloring, every vertex shares its color with at least half of its neighbors. The maximum number of colors that…

A coloring is distinguishing (or symmetry breaking) if no non-identity automorphism preserves it. The distinguishing threshold of a graph $G$, denoted by $\theta(G)$, is the minimum number of colors $k$ so that every $k$-coloring of $G$ is…

A strong edge coloring of a graph is a proper edge coloring where the edges at distance at most two receive distinct colors. It is known that every planar graph with maximum degree D has a strong edge coloring with at most 4D + 4 colors. We…

A majority coloring of an undirected graph is a vertex coloring in which for each vertex there are at least as many bi-chromatic edges containing that vertex as monochromatic ones. It is known that for every countable graph a majority…
