A $b$-coloring of a graph is a proper coloring such that every color class contains a vertex adjacent to at least one vertex in each of the other color classes. The $b$-chromatic number of a graph $G$, denoted by $b(G)$, is the maximum…

Let $ n \in \mathbb{N} $ with $ n \geq 3 $, and let $\mathcal{G} = \{G_i:i\in [n]\} $ be a family of $ n $-vertex graphs on a common vertex set $V$, where the graphs in the family do not need to be distinct. A graph $H$ with vertex set $V$…

A total $k$-coloring of a graph $G$ is a coloring of $V(G)\cup E(G)$ using $k$ colors such that no two adjacent or incident elements receive the same color. The total chromatic number $\chi"(G)$ of $G$ is the smallest integer $k$ such that…

Given $k$ graphs $G_{1}, \ldots, G_{k}$, their intersection is the graph $(\cap_{i\in [k]}V(G_{i}), \cap_{i\in [k]}E(G_{i}))$. Given $k$ graph classes $\mathcal{G}_{1}, \ldots , \mathcal{G}_{k}$, we call the class $\{G: \forall i \in[k],…

The \textit{Distinguishing Chromatic Number} of a graph $G$, denoted $\chi_D(G)$, was first defined in \cite{collins} as the minimum number of colors needed to properly color $G$ such that no non-trivial automorphism $\phi$ of the graph $G$…

The dichromatic number $\vec{\chi}(G)$ of a digraph $G$ is the least integer $k$ such that $G$ can be partitioned into $k$ acyclic digraphs. A digraph is $k$-dicritical if $\vec{\chi}(G) = k$ and each proper subgraph $H$ of $G$ satisfies…

A $k$-matching in a graph $G$ is defined as a function $f:E(G) \rightarrow \{0,1,\ldots,k\}$ satisfying $\sum_{e\in E_G(v)} f(e)$ $\leq k$ for each vertex $v\in V(G)$, where $E_G(v)$ denotes the set of edges incident to $v$ in $G$. For…

An edge-coloured graph $G$ is called $properly$ $connected$ if every two vertices are connected by a proper path. The $proper$ $connection$ $number$ of a connected graph $G$, denoted by $pc(G)$, is the smallest number of colours that are…

Given a graph or multigraph $G$, let $\chi'_{trans}(G)$ denote the minimum integer $n$ such that any proper $\chi'(G)$--edge coloring of $G$ can be transformed into any other proper $\chi'(G)$--edge coloring of $G$ by a series of…

Let $\text{ch}(G)$ denote the choice number of a graph $G$ (also called "list chromatic number" or "choosability" of $G$). Noel, Reed, and Wu proved the conjecture of Ohba that $\text{ch}(G)=\chi(G)$ when $|V(G)|\le 2\chi(G)+1$. We extend…

For a graph $G$, the tree graph ${\cal T}_{G,t}$ has all tree subgraphs of $G$ with $t$ vertices as vertex set and two tree subgraphs are neighbors if they are edge-disjoint. Also, the $r^{th}$ cut number of $G$ is the minimum number of…

The chromatic discrepancy of a graph $G$, denoted $\phi(G)$, is the least over all proper colourings $\sigma$ of $G$ of the greatest difference between the number of colours $|\sigma(V(H))|$ spanned by an induced subgraph $H$ of $G$ and its…

The choosability $\chi_\ell(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the minimum $k$ such that having $k$ colors available at each vertex guarantees a proper coloring. Given a toroidal graph $G$, it is known that $\chi_\ell(G)\leq 7$, and $\chi_\ell(G)=7$ if…

Let $G$ be a graph of maximum degree $\Delta$ which does not contain isolated vertices. An edge coloring $c$ of $G$ is called conflict-free if each edge's closed neighborhood includes a uniquely colored element. The least number of colors…

The packing chromatic number $\chi_{\rho}(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the smallest integer $k$ such that the vertex set of $G$ can be partitioned into sets $V_i$, $i\in [k]$, where vertices in $V_i$ are pairwise at distance at least $i+1$.…

The boxicity $\operatorname{box}(H)$ of a graph $H$ is the smallest integer $d$ such that $H$ is the intersection of $d$ interval graphs, or equivalently, that $H$ is the intersection graph of axis-aligned boxes in $\mathbb{R}^d$. These…

A graph $G$ admits an $H$-tiling if it contains a collection of vertex-disjoint copies of $H$. In this paper, we confirm a conjecture proposed by K\"{u}hn, Osthus, and Treglown by showing that for any given graph $H$, there exists a…

For an oriented graph $G$, the least number of colours required to oriented colour $G$ is called the oriented chromatic number of $G$ and denoted $\chi_o(G)$.For a non-negative integer $g$ let $\chi_o(g)$ be the least integer such that…

The three well-known graph classes, planar graphs (P), series-parallel graphs(SP) and outer planar graphs(OP) satisfy the following proper inclusion relation: OP C SP C P. It is known that box(G) <= 3 if G belongs to P and box(G) <= 2 if G…

The strong chromatic number, $\chi_S(G)$, of an $n$-vertex graph $G$ is the smallest number $k$ such that after adding $k\lceil n/k\rceil-n$ isolated vertices to $G$ and considering {\bf any} partition of the vertices of the resulting graph…
