A hypergraph $H$ is properly colored if for every vertex $v\in V(H)$, all the edges incident to $v$ have distinct colors. In this paper, we show that if $H_{1}$, \cdots, $H_{s}$ are properly-colored $k$-uniform hypergraphs on $n$ vertices,…
Let $M_1,M_2,\ldots,M_k$ be a collection of matroids on the same ground set $E$. A coloring $c:E \rightarrow \{1,2,\ldots,k\}$ is called \emph{cooperative} if for every color $j$, the set of elements in color $j$ is independent in $M_j$. We…
We prove a common generalization of two results, one on rainbow fractional matchings and one on rainbow sets in the intersection of two matroids: Given $d = r \lceil k \rceil - r + 1$ functions of size (=sum of values) $k$ that are all…
For a given $\delta \in (0,1)$, the randomly perturbed graph model is defined as the union of any $n$-vertex graph $G_0$ with minimum degree $\delta n$ and the binomial random graph $\mathbf{G}(n,p)$ on the same vertex set. Moreover, we say…
Let $G$ be an edge-colored graph on $n$ vertices. For a vertex $v$, the \emph{color degree} of $v$ in $G$, denoted by $d^c(v)$, is the number of colors appearing on the edges incident with $v$. Denote by $\delta^c(G)=\min\{d^c(v):v\in…
An edge coloring of a simple graph $G$ is said to be \textit{proper rainbow-cycle-forbidding} (PRCF, for short) if no two incident edges receive the same color and for any cycle in $G$, at least two edges of that cycle receive the same…
An edge-colored graph is a graph in which each edge is assigned a color. Such a graph is called strongly edge-colored if each color class forms an induced matching, and called rainbow if all edges receive pairwise distinct colors. In this…
A graph has a locating rainbow coloring if every pair of its vertices can be connected by a path passing through internal vertices with distinct colors and every vertex generates a unique rainbow code. The minimum number of colors needed…
In a properly edge colored graph, a subgraph using every color at most once is called rainbow. In this thesis, we study rainbow cycles and paths in proper edge colorings of complete graphs, and we prove that in every proper edge coloring of…
An exact r-coloring of a set $S$ is a surjective function $c:S \rightarrow \{1, 2, \ldots,r\}$. A rainbow solution to an equation over $S$ is a solution such that all components are a different color. We prove that every 3-coloring of…
