Abstract

In an edge-colored graph (G,c)(G,c), let dc(v)d^c(v) denote the number of colors on the edges incident with a vertex vv of GG and δc(G)\delta^c(G) denote the minimum value of dc(v)d^c(v) over all vertices vV(G)v\in V(G). A cycle of (G,c)(G,c) is called proper if any two adjacent edges of the cycle have distinct colors. An edge-colored graph (G,c)(G,c) on n3n\geq 3 vertices is called properly vertex-pancyclic if each vertex of (G,c)(G,c) is contained in a proper cycle of length \ell for every \ell with 3n3 \le \ell \le n. Fujita and Magnant conjectured that every edge-colored complete graph on n3n\geq 3 vertices with δc(G)n+12\delta^c(G)\geq \frac{n+1}{2} is properly vertex-pancyclic. Chen, Huang and Yuan partially solve this conjecture by adding an extra condition that (G,c)(G,c) does not contain any monochromatic triangle. In this paper, we show that this conjecture is true if the edge-colored complete graph contain no joint monochromatic triangles.
