In 1972, Erd\"{o}s - Faber - Lov\'{a}sz (EFL) conjectured that, if $\textbf{H}$ is a linear hypergraph consisting of $n$ edges of cardinality $n$, then it is possible to color the vertices with $n$ colors so that no two vertices with the…
We consider the Erd{\H{o}}s - Faber - Lov\'{a}sz (EFL) conjecture for hypergraphs. This paper gives an upper bound for the chromatic number of $r$ regular linear hypergraphs $\textbf{H}$ of size $n$. If $r \ge 4$, $\chi (\textbf{H}) \le…
A linear hypergraph is intersecting if any two different edges have exactly one common vertex and an $n$-quasicluster is an intersecting linear hypergraph with $n$ edges each one containing at most $n$ vertices and every vertex is contained…
We show that the chromatic index of a hypergraph $\mathcal{H}$ satisfies Berge-F\"uredi conjectured bound $\mathrm{q}(\mathcal{H})\le \Delta([\mathcal{H}]_2)+1$ under certain hypotheses on the antirank $\mathrm{ar}(\mathcal{H})$ or on the…
The long-standing Erd\H{o}s-Faber-Lov\'asz conjecture states that every $n$-uniform linear hypergaph with $n$ edges has a proper vertex-coloring using $n$ colors. In this paper we propose an algebraic framework to the problem and formulate…
Motivated by the Erd\H{o}s-Faber-Lov\'asz (EFL) conjecture for hypergraphs, we consider the list edge coloring of linear hypergraphs. We discuss several conjectures for list edge coloring linear hypergraphs that generalize both EFL and…

This paper is concerned with two conjectures which are intimately related. The first is a generalization to hypergraphs of Vizing's Theorem on the chromatic index of a graph and the second is the well-known conjecture of Erd\H{o}s, Faber…
The Erd\H{o}s--Faber--Lov\'{a}sz Conjecture, posed in 1972, states that if a graph $G$ is the union of $n$ cliques of order $n$ (referred to as defining $n$-cliques) such that two cliques can share at most one vertex, then the vertices of…
For a graph $G$, let $\chi(G)$ denote its chromatic number and $\sigma(G)$ denote the order of the largest clique subdivision in $G$. Let H(n) be the maximum of $\chi(G)/\sigma(G)$ over all $n$-vertex graphs $G$. A famous conjecture of…
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…
In 1977, Erd\H{o}s asked the following question: for any integers $t,n \in \mathbb{N}$, if $G_1 , \dots , G_n$ are complete graphs such that each $G_i$ has at most $n$ vertices and every pair of them shares at most $t$ vertices, what is the…
Motivated by the Erdos-Faber Lovasz conjecture (EFL) for hypergraphs, we explore relationships between several conjectures on the edge coloring of linear hypergraphs. In particular, we are able to increase the class of hypergraphs for which…
Motivated by the Erd\H{o}s-Faber-Lov\'{a}sz (EFL) conjecture for hypergraphs, we consider the list edge coloring of linear hypergraphs. We show that if the hyper-edge sizes are bounded between $i$ and $C_{i,\epsilon} \sqrt{n}$ inclusive,…
In this paper, we prove a generalization of a conjecture of Erd\"{o}s, about the chromatic number of certain Kneser-type hypergraphs. For integers $n,k,r,s$ with $n\ge rk$ and $2\le s\le r$, the $r$-uniform general Kneser hypergraph…
The famous List Colouring Conjecture from the 1970s states that for every graph $G$ the chromatic index of $G$ is equal to its list chromatic index. In 1996 in a seminal paper, Kahn proved that the List Colouring Conjecture holds…
In 1973 P. Erd\H{o}s and L. Lov\'asz noticed that any hypergraph whose edges are pairwise intersecting has chromatic number 2 or 3. In the first case, such hypergraph may have any number of edges. However, Erd\H{o}s and Lov\'asz proved that…
In the way of proving Kneser's conjecture, L\'{a}szl\'{o} Lov\'{a}sz settled out a new lower bound for the chromatic number of graphs. He showed that if the hom complex $||Hom(\mathcal{K}_2, H)||$ of a graph $H$ is topologically…
The dichromatic number of a digraph $D$, denoted by $\vec{\chi}(D)$, is the smallest number of colours required to colour the vertices of $D$ such that each colour class induces an acyclic digraph. A conjecture of Erd\H{o}s and Neumann-Lara…
Confirming a conjecture of Erd\H{o}s on the chromatic number of Kneser hypergraphs, Alon, Frankl and Lov\'asz proved that in any $q$-colouring of the edges of the complete $r$-uniform hypergraph, there exists a monochromatic matching of…
