A graph is called dominating if its vertices can be labelled with integers in such a way that for every function f: omega-> omega the graph contains a ray whose sequence of labels eventually exceeds f. We obtain a characterization of these…
In this paper, we investigate the relation between the (fractional) domination number of a digraph $G$ and the independence number of its underlying graph, denoted by $\alpha(G)$. More precisely, we prove that every digraph $G$ has…
Various results ensure the existence of large complete bipartite graphs in properly colored graphs when some condition related to a topological lower bound on the chromatic number is satisfied. We generalize three theorems of this kind,…
More than ten years ago in 2008, a new kind of graph coloring appeared in graph theory, which is the {\it rainbow connection coloring} of graphs, and then followed by some other new concepts of graph colorings, such as {\it proper…
Weak and strong coloring numbers are generalizations of the degeneracy of a graph, where for each natural number $k$, we seek a vertex ordering such every vertex can (weakly respectively strongly) reach in $k$ steps only few vertices with…
A coloring of a graph is an assignment of colors to its vertices such that adjacent vertices have different colors. Two colorings are equivalent if they induce the same partition of the vertex set into color classes. Let $\mathcal{A}(G)$ be…
We introduce several new concepts about graphs and investigate their basic properties. A longest path in a graph is called a detour and a longest cycle is called a cummerbund. The detour covering number of a graph is the number of vertices…
The problem of injective coloring in graphs can be revisited through two different approaches: coloring the two-step graphs and vertex partitioning of graphs into open packing sets, each of which is equivalent to the injective coloring…
Motivated by the definition of linear coloring on simplicial complexes, recently introduced in the context of algebraic topology \cite{Civan}, and the framework through which it was studied, we introduce the linear coloring on graphs. We…
We prove analogs of Brooks' Theorem for the list-distinguishing chromatic number of different classes of simple finite connected graphs. Moreover, we determine two upper bounds for the list-distinguishing chromatic number of a graph G in…
Given a graph G equals (V,E), a subset S subset of V is a dominating set if every vertex in V minus S is adjacent to some vertex in S. The dominating set with the least cardinality, gamma, is called a gamma-set which is commonly known as a…
Let $\gamma(G)$ and $\gamma_t(G)$ denote the domination number and the total domination number, respectively, of a graph $G$ with no isolated vertices. It is well-known that $\gamma_t(G) \leq 2\gamma(G)$. We provide a characterization of a…
It is known (Bollob\'{a}s (1978); Kostochka and Mazurova (1977)) that there exist graphs of maximum degree $\Delta$ and of arbitrarily large girth whose chromatic number is at least $c \Delta / \log \Delta$. We show an analogous result for…
We show a method how to convert any graph into the binary number and vice versa. We derive upper bound for maximum number of graphs, that, have fixed number of vertices and can be colored with n colors (n is any given number). Proof for the…
The circulant graph $C_n(S)$ with connection set $S\subseteq \{1,2,\cdots,n\}$ is the graph with vertex set $V=\{1,\ldots, n\}$ and two vertices $x,y$ are adjacent if $|x-y|\in S$. In this paper, we will calculate the total dominator…
A proper vertex coloring of a graph is said to be locally identifying if the sets of colors in the closed neighborhood of any two adjacent non-twin vertices are distinct. The lid-chromatic number of a graph is the minimum number of colors…
A theory about the implication structure in graph coloring is presented. Discovering hidden relations is a crucial activity in every scientific discipline. The development of mathematical models to study and discover such hidden relations…
The celebrated Erdos, Faber and Lovasz conjecture may be stated as follows: Any linear hypergraph on v points has chromatic index at most v. We will introduce the linear intersection number of a graph, and use this number to give an…
We consider edge colorings of a graph in such a way that each two different triangles have distinct colorings. It is an extension of the well-known idea of distinguishing all maximal stars in a graph. It was introduced in literature in 1985…
The independence number, coloring number and related parameters are investigated in the setting of oriented hypergraphs using the spectrum of the normalized Laplace operator. For the independence number, both an inertia--like bound and a…
