Let $G$ and $H$ be two vertex disjoint graphs. The {\em union} $G\cup H$ is the graph with $V(G\cup H)=V(G)\cup V(H)$ and $E(G\cup H)=E(G)\cup E(H)$. We use $P_k$ to denote a {\em path} on $k$ vertices, use {\em house} to denote the…

We denote a path on $t$ vertices as $P_t$ and a cycle on $t$ vertices as $C_t$. For two vertex-disjoint graphs $G_1$ and $G_2$, the {\em union} $G_1\cup G_2$ is the graph with $V(G_1\cup G_2)=V(G_1)\cup V(G_2)$ and $E(G_1\cup…

For two vertex disjoint graphs $H$ and $F$, we use $H\cup F$ to denote the graph with vertex set $V(H)\cup V(F)$ and edge set $E(H)\cup E(F)$, and use $H+F$ to denote the graph with vertex set $V(H)\cup V(F)$ and edge set $E(H)\cup…

Let $G$ be a graph. We say that $G$ is perfectly divisible if for each induced subgraph $H$ of $G$, $V(H)$ can be partitioned into $A$ and $B$ such that $H[A]$ is perfect and $\omega(H[B])<\omega(H)$. We use $P_t$ and $C_t$ to denote a path…

For a graph $G$, let $\chi(G)$ and $\omega(G)$ respectively denote the chromatic number and clique number of $G$. We give an explicit structural description of ($P_5$,gem)-free graphs, and show that every such graph $G$ satisfies…

For a graph $G$ and a set of graphs $\mathcal{H}$, we say that $G$ is {\em $\mathcal{H}$-free} if no induced subgraph of $G$ is isomorphic to a member of $\mathcal{H}$. Given an integer $P>0$, a graph $G$, and a set of graphs $\mathcal{F}$,…

Let $F_1$ and $F_2$ be two disjoint graphs. The union $F_1\cup F_2$ is a graph with vertex set $V(F_1)\cup V(F_2)$ and edge set $E(F_1)\cup E(F_2)$, and the join $F_1+F_2$ is a graph with vertex set $V(F_1)\cup V(F_2)$ and edge set…

For a graph $G$, let $\chi(G)$ ($\omega(G)$) denote its chromatic (clique) number. A $P_2+P_3$ is the graph obtained by taking the disjoint union of a two-vertex path $P_2$ and a three-vertex path $P_3$. A $\bar{P_2+P_3}$ is the complement…

Given two graphs $H_1$ and $H_2$, a graph $G$ is $(H_1,H_2)$-free if it contains no induced subgraph isomorphic to $H_1$ or $H_2$. Let $P_t$ be the path on $t$ vertices and $K_t$ be the complete graph on $t$ vertices. The diamond is the…

The {\em disjointness graph} $G=G({\cal S})$ of a set of segments ${\cal S}$ in $R^d$, $d\ge 2,$ is a graph whose vertex set is ${\cal S}$ and two vertices are connected by an edge if and only if the corresponding segments are disjoint. We…

For a graph $G$, let $\chi(G)$ denote the chromatic number of $G$. Given a graph $G$, the $reconfiguration$ $graph$ $for$ $the$ $k$-$colorings$ of $G$, denoted by ${\cal R}_k(G)$, is the graph whose vertices are the $k$-colorings of $G$ and…

Given two graphs $H_1$ and $H_2$, a graph $G$ is $(H_1,H_2)$-free if it contains no subgraph isomorphic to $H_1$ or $H_2$. Let $P_t$ and $C_s$ be the path on $t$ vertices and the cycle on $s$ vertices, respectively. In this paper we show…

Given two graphs $H_1$ and $H_2$, a graph is $(H_1,H_2)$-free if it contains no induced subgraph isomorphic to $H_1$ nor $H_2$. A graph $G$ is $k$-vertex-critical if every proper induced subgraph of $G$ has chromatic number less than $k$,…

A hereditary class $\cal G$ of graphs is {\em $\chi$-bounded} if there is a {\em $\chi$-binding function}, say $f$, such that $\chi(G)\le f(\omega(G))$ for every $G\in\cal G$, where $\chi(G)(\omega(G))$ denotes the chromatic (clique) number…

For a graph $G$, $\chi(G)$ and $\omega(G)$ respectively denote the chromatic number and clique number of $G$. In this paper, we show the following results: (i) If $G$ is a ($P_2+P_4$, $K_4-e$)-free graph with $\omega(G)\geq 3$, then…

This article foucuses on $(P_3\cup P_2,K_4)$-free graph. In this paper, we prove that if G is $(P_3\cup P_2,K_4)$-free, then $\chi(G)\le 7$. We then use our result to obtain the upper bound of order and chromatic number of…

Let $\partial_H(u)$ be the set of edges incident with a vertex $u$ in the graph $H$. We say that a graph $G$ is $H$-colorable if there exist total functions $f : E(G) \rightarrow E(H)$ and $g : V(G) \rightarrow V(H)$ such that $f$ is a…

Let $H=(V(H),E(H))$ be a graph. A $k$-coloring of $H$ is a mapping $\pi : V(H) \longrightarrow \{1,2,\ldots, k\}$ so that each color class induces a $K_2$-free subgraph. For a graph $G$ of order at least $2$, a $G$-free $k$-coloring of $H$…

For a set $\mathcal{H}$ of connected graphs, a spanning subgraph $H$ of $G$ is called an $\mathcal{H}$-factor of $G$ if each component of $H$ is isomorphic to an element of $\mathcal{H}$. A graph $G$ is called an $\mathcal{H}$-factor…

In this paper, we establish an optimal $\chi$-binding function for $(P_2\cup P_4,\text{ diamond})$-free graphs. We prove that for any graph $G$ in this class, $\chi(G)\le 4$ when $\omega(G)=2$, $\chi(G)\le 6$ when $\omega(G)=3$, and…
