In this paper, we convert Collatz map into a simple conjugate iterative maps defined in [0,1]. Such maps are more familiar to us and easier to deal with. Some new features of this map are observed by this method. An interesting heuristic…
Edge Constrained Vertex Coloring (ECVC) problems are defined on a finite multigraph, their solutions are characterized, and a linear time algorithm is given for solving $N$ ECVCs on the same underlying multigraph. Using ECVC problems we…

We examine the effect of bounding the diameter for well-studied variants of the Colouring problem. A colouring is acyclic, star, or injective if any two colour classes induce a forest, star forest or disjoint union of vertices and edges,…
One of the toughest problems in Ramsey theory is to determine the existence of monochromatic arithmetic progressions in groups whose elements have been colored. We study the harder problem to not only determine the existence of…
We present an efficient algorithm for computing the partition function of the q-colouring problem (chromatic polynomial) on regular two-dimensional lattice strips. Our construction involves writing the transfer matrix as a product of sparse…

We devise a new formulation for the vertex coloring problem. Different from other formulations, decision variables are associated with the pairs of vertices. Consequently, colors will be distinguishable. Although the objective function is…
We develop a systematic way to solve linear equations involving tensors of arbitrary rank. We start off with the case of a rank $3$ tensor, which appears in many applications, and after finding the condition for a unique solution we derive…
As a prelude to what might be expected as forthcoming breakthroughs in finding new approaches toward solving three-dimensional lattice models in the twenty-first century, we review the exact solutions of two lattice models in three…
A simple but empirically efficient heuristic algorithm for the edge-coloring of graphs is presented. Its basic idea is the displacement of "conflicts" (repeated colors in the edges incident to a vertex) along paths of adjacent vertices…
In the problem of 2-coloring without monochromatic triangles (or triangle-tree 2-coloring), vertices of the simple, connected, undirected graph are colored with either 'black' or 'white' such that there are no 3 mutually adjacent vertices…
In responding to a question on Math Stackexchange, the author formulated the problem of determining the number of strings of balls colored in most $n$ colors with a number $k$ of repeated colors. In this paper, we formulate the problem more…
We propose a novel approach to automatically produce multiple colorized versions of a grayscale image. Our method results from the observation that the task of automated colorization is relatively easy given a low-resolution version of the…
We study "tricolor percolation" on the regular tessellation of R^3 by truncated octahedra, which is the three-dimensional analog of the hexagonal tiling of the plane. We independently assign one of three colors to each cell according to a…
The Colour Refinement procedure and its generalisation to higher dimensions, the Weisfeiler-Leman algorithm, are central subroutines in approaches to the graph isomorphism problem. In an iterative fashion, Colour Refinement computes a…
Percolation on a plane is usually associated with clusters spanning two opposite sides of a rectangular system. Here we investigate three-leg clusters generated on a square lattice and spanning the three sides of equilateral triangles. If…
Fix a simple graph $G=(V,E)$ and choose a random initial 3-coloring of vertices drawn from a uniform product measure. The 3-color cycle cellular automaton is a process in which at each discrete time step in parallel, every vertex with color…
