For an odd integer $n = 2d-1$, let $\mathcal B_d$ be the subgraph of the hypercube $Q_n$ induced by the two largest layers. In this paper, we describe the typical structure of proper $q$-colorings of $V(\mathcal B_d)$ and give asymptotics…

In this paper, we study Dehn colorings of spatial graph diagrams, and classify the vertex conditions, equivalently the palettes. We give some example of spatial graphs which can be distinguished by the number of Dehn colorings with…

We introduce and investigate single conflict coloring in the setting of r-uniform hypergraphs. We establish some basic properties of this hypergraph coloring model and study a probabilistic model of single conflict coloring where the…

For an $r$-regular graph $G$, we define an edge-coloring $c$ with colors from $\{1,2,\cdots,$ $k\}$, in such a way that any vertex of $G$ is incident to at least one edge of each color. The multiset-color $c_m(v)$ of a vertex $v$ is defined…

For a non-decreasing sequence $S = (s_1, \ldots, s_k)$ of positive integers, an $S$-packing edge-coloring of a graph $G$ is a decomposition of edges of $G$ into disjoint sets $E_1, \ldots, E_k$ such that for each $1 \le i \le k$ the…

We consider the problem of $2$-coloring geometric hypergraphs. Specifically, we show that there is a constant $m$ such that any finite set of points in the plane $\mathcal{S} \subset {\mathbb R}^2$ can be $2$-colored such that every…

We consider the problem of orienting the edges of the $n$-dimensional hypercube so only two different in-degrees $a$ and $b$ occur. We show that this can be done, for two specified in-degrees, if and only if an obvious necessary condition…

In this paper, we study discrepancy questions for spanning subgraphs of $k$-uniform hypergraphs. Our main result is that, for any integers $k \ge 3$ and $r \ge 2$, any $r$-colouring of the edges of a $k$-uniform $n$-vertex hypergraph $G$…

Let $G$ be a graph and $R\subseteq V(G)$. A proper edge-coloring of a graph $G$ with colors $1,\ldots,t$ is called an $R$-sequential $t$-coloring if the edges incident to each vertex $v\in R$ are colored by the colors $1,\ldots,d_{G}(v)$,…

A red-white coloring of a nontrivial connected graph $G$ is an assignment of red and white colors to the vertices of~$G$. Associated with each vertex $v$ of $G$ of diameter $d$ is a $d$-vector, called the code of $v$, whose $i$th coordinate…

A {\em packing coloring} of a graph $G$ is a mapping assigning a positive integer (a color) to every vertex of $G$ such that every two vertices of color $k$ are at distance at least $k+1$. The least number of colors needed for a packing…

A $k$-uniform hypergraph $H = (V, E)$ is $k$-partite if $V$ can be partitioned into $k$ sets $V_1, \ldots, V_k$ such that every edge in $E$ contains precisely one vertex from each $V_i$. We call such a graph $n$-balanced if $|V_i| = n$ for…
