A 3-coloring of the elements of an abelian group is said to be rainbow--free if there is no 3-term arithmetic progression with its members having pairwise distinct colors. We give a structural characterization of rainbow--free colorings 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…
Given a coloring of group elements, a rainbow solution to an equation is a solution whose every element is assigned a different color. The rainbow number of $\mathbb{Z}_n$ for an equation $eq$, denoted $rb(\mathbb{Z}_n,eq)$, is the smallest…
In this paper, we study the rainbow Erd\H{o}s-Rothschild problem with respect to 3-term arithmetic progressions. We obtain the asymptotic number of $r$-colorings of $[n]$ without rainbow 3-term arithmetic progressions, and we show that the…
An exact $r$-coloring of a set $S$ is a surjective function $c:S\to [r]$. The rainbow number of a set $S$ for equation $eq$ is the smallest integer $r$ such that every exact $r$-coloring of $S$ contains a rainbow solution to $eq$. In this…
Let $\mathbb{F}_p$ be the field with $p$ elements with $p$ prime, $X_1,\ldots, X_n$ pairwise disjoint subsets of $\mathbb{F}_p$with at least $3$ elements such that $\sum_{i=1}^n|X_i|\leq p-5$, and $\mathbb{S}_n$ the set of permutations of…
We give a linear-time algorithm to decide 3-colorability of a triangle-free graph embedded in a fixed surface, and a quadratic-time algorithm to output a 3-coloring in the affirmative case. The algorithms also allow to prescribe the…
In this paper, we give a polynomial time algorithm which determines if a given triangle-free graph with no induced seven-vertex path is 3-colorable, and gives an explicit coloring if one exists.
We study rainbow-free colourings of $k$-uniform hypergraphs; that is, colourings that use $k$ colours but with the property that no hyperedge attains all colours. We show that $p^*=(k-1)(\ln n)/n$ is the threshold function for the existence…
We give a linear-time algorithm to decide 3-colorability (and find a 3-coloring, if it exists) of quadrangulations of a fixed surface. The algorithm also allows to prescribe the coloring for a bounded number of vertices.
Let $p$ be a prime. In this paper we classify the $p$-structure of those finite $p$-separable groups such that, given any three non-central conjugacy classes of $p$-regular elements, two of them necessarily have coprime lengths.
In this work, we investigate the fewest number of colors needed to guarantee a rainbow solution to the equation $x_1 + x_2 = k x_3$ in $\mathbb{Z}_n$. This value is called the Rainbow number and is denoted by $rb(\mathbb{Z}_n, k)$ for…
A rainbow colouring of a connected graph is a colouring of the edges of the graph, such that every pair of vertices is connected by at least one path in which no two edges are coloured the same. Such a colouring using minimum possible…
Let [n]=\{1,\,2,...,\,n\} be colored in k colors. A rainbow AP(k) in [n] is a k term arithmetic progression whose elements have diferent colors. Conlon, Jungic and Radoicic [10] had shown that there exists an equinumerous 4-coloring of [4n]…
An edge-coloured cycle is $rainbow$ if all edges of the cycle have distinct colours. For $k\geq 1$, let $\mathcal{F}_{k}$ denote the family of all graphs with the property that any $k$ vertices lie on a cycle. For $G\in \mathcal{F}_{k}$, a…
For a ring R and system L of linear homogeneous equations, we call a coloring of the nonzero elements of R minimal for L if there are no monochromatic solutions to L and the coloring uses as few colors as possible. For a rational number q…
Grotzsch's theorem states that every triangle-free planar graph is 3-colorable. Several relatively simple proofs of this fact were provided by Thomassen and other authors. It is easy to convert these proofs into quadratic-time algorithms to…
It is well known that any set of n intervals in $\mathbb{R}^1$ admits a non-monochromatic coloring with two colors and a conflict-free coloring with three colors. We investigate generalizations of this result to colorings of objects in more…
An edge-colored graph $G$ is said to be rainbow connected if between each pair of vertices there exists a path which uses each color at most once. The rainbow connection number, denoted by $rc(G)$, is the minimum number of colors needed to…
Given a matroid together with a coloring of its ground set, a subset of its elements is called rainbow colored if no two of its elements have the same color. We show that if a binary matroid of rank $r$ is colored with exactly $r$ colors,…
