A $t$-tone $k$-coloring of a graph $G$ assigns a set of $t$ distinct colors from $\{1, \dots, k\}$ to each vertex so that vertices at distance $d$ share fewer than $d$ common colors. The $t$-tone chromatic number of $G$ is the minimum $k$…

A packing $k$-coloring is a natural variation on the standard notion of graph $k$-coloring, where vertices are assigned numbers from $\{1, \ldots, k\}$, and any two vertices assigned a common color $c \in \{1, \ldots, k\}$ need to be at a…

For a smooth plane cubic $B$, we count curves $C$ of degree $d$ such that the normalizations of $C\backslash B$ are isomorphic to $\Bbb A^1$, for $d\leq7$ (for $d=7$ under some assumption). We also count plane rational quartic curves…

Let $D=(\mathcal{P},\mathcal{B})$ be a symmetric $(v,k,\lambda)$-design and let $(X,Y)$ be an equinumerous incidence-free pair, with $X\subseteq \mathcal{P}$ and $Y\subseteq \mathcal{B}$. In this note, we give an elementary proof which…

We consider the robust chromatic number $\chi_1(G)$ of planar graphs $G$ and show that there exists an infinite family of planar graphs $G$ with $\chi_1(G) = 3$, thus solving a recent problem of Bacs\'{o}~et~al. (The robust chromatic number…

If we fix a spanning subgraph $H$ of a graph $G$, we can define a chromatic number of $H$ with respect to $G$ and we show that it coincides with the chromatic number of a double covering of $G$ with co-support $H$. We also find a few…

In this note we show every orientation of a connected cubic graph admits an oriented 8-colouring. This lowers the best-known upper bound for the chromatic number of the family of orientations of connected cubic graphs. We further show that…

We prove for k at most 10, that every graph of chromatic number k with a unique k-coloring admits a clique minor of order k.

We show that the number of $\mathbf{S}$-balanced configurations of four bodies in the plane is finite, provided that the symmetric matrix $\mathbf{S}$ is close to a numerical matrix.

We establish a simple generalization of a known result in the plane. The simplices in any pure simplicial complex in R^d may be colored with d+1 colors so that no two simplices that share a (d-1)-facet have the same color. In R^2 this says…

We prove that reflection of the coloring number of graphs is consistent with non-reflection of the chromatic number. Moreover, it is proved that incompactness for the chromatic number of graphs (with arbitrarily large gaps) is compatible…

Graph colorings is a fundamental topic in graph theory that require an assignment of labels (or colors) to vertices or edges subject to various constraints. We focus on the harmonious coloring of a graph, which is a proper vertex coloring…

A facial-parity edge-coloring of a $2$-edge-connected plane graph is a facially-proper edge-coloring in which every face is incident with zero or an odd number of edges of each color. A facial-parity vertex-coloring of a $2$-connected plane…

In 1976 Simmons conjectured that every coloring of a 2-dimensional sphere of radius strictly greater than $1/2$ in three colors has a couple of monochromatic points at the distance 1 apart. We prove this conjecture.

Hadwiger Conjecture has been an open problem for over a half century1,6, which says that there is at most a complete graph Kt but no Kt+1 for every t-colorable graph. A few cases of Hadwiger Conjecture, such as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6-colorable…

We conclude an investigation of Abrishami, Esperet, Giocanti, Hamman, Knappe and M\"oller studying the existence of periodic colourings of locally finite graphs. A colouring of a graph $\Gamma$ is periodic if the resulting coloured graph…

Let $P$ be a set of $n$ points in strictly convex position in the plane. Let $D_n$ be the graph whose vertex set is the set of all line segments with endpoints in $P$, where disjoint segments are adjacent. The chromatic number of this graph…

The representation is essentially the same as that given by J.P.Nagle in J. Comb. Theory (B), 1971, 10:1, 42--59. The distinction is in the definition of the weighting function via the number of flows. This new definition allows one to…

A colouring of a graph is "nonrepetitive" if for every path of even order, the sequence of colours on the first half of the path is different from the sequence of colours on the second half. We show that planar graphs have nonrepetitive…

The chromatic number of the finite projective space $\mathrm{PG}(n-1,q)$, denoted $\chi_q(n)$, is the minimum number of colors needed to color its points so that no line is monochromatic. We prove subadditivity of $\chi_q(n)$ with respect…
