We prove that if one colors each point of the Euclidean plane with one of five colors, then there exist two points of the same color that are either distance $1$ or distance $2$ apart.
We present a tiling of more than 99.985698% of the Euclidean plane with six colors, reducing the previous record for uncovered fraction of the plane by about 12.8%. We also present a tiling of more than 95.99% of the plane with five colors.…
Let $G$ be the unit distance graph in the plane. A well-known problem in combinatorial geometry is that of determining the chromatic number of $G$. It is known that $4\le \chi(G)\le 7$. The upper bound of 7 is obtained using tilings of the…
We consider the coloring of certain distance graphs on the Euclidean plane. Namely, we ask for the minimal number of colors needed to color all points of the plane in such a way that pairs of points at distance in the interval $[1,b]$ get…
We give a new, simple proof for the lower bound of the chromatic number of the Euclidean plane with two forbidden distances, based on a graph with only 16 vertices.
This is a treatise on finite point configurations spanning a fixed volume to be found in a single color-class of an arbitrary finite (measurable) coloring of the Euclidean space $\mathbb{R}^n$, or in a single large measurable subset…
In 1950 Edward Nelson asked the following simple-sounding question: \emph{How many colors are needed to color the Euclidean plane $\mathbb{E}^2$ such that no two points distance $1$ apart are identically colored?} We say that $1$ is a…
The chromatic number of the plane problem asks for the minimum number of colors so that each point of the plane can be assigned a single color with the property that no two points unit-distance apart are identically colored. It is now known…
We present an alternate proof of the fact that given any 4-coloring of the plane there exist two points unit distance apart which are identically colored.
A measure theoretic approach of the problem that there exits a finite unit-distance graphs in the plane that are not five (or four) colorable.
We prove that every finite colouring of the plane contains a monochromatic pair of points at an odd distance from each other.
Consider the graph $\mathbb{H}(d)$ whose vertex set is the hyperbolic plane, where two points are connected with an edge when their distance is equal to some $d>0$. Asking for the chromatic number of this graph is the hyperbolic analogue to…
Arrangements of pseudolines are a widely studied generalization of line arrangements. They are defined as a finite family of infinite curves in the Euclidean plane, any two of which intersect at exactly one point. One can state various…
We consider circular version of the famous Nelson-Hadwiger problem. It is know that 4 colors are necessary and 7 colors suffice to color the euclidean plane in such a way that points at distance one get different colors. In $r$-circular…
The famous Hadwiger-Nelson problem asks for the minimum number of colors needed to color the points of the Euclidean plane so that no two points unit distance apart are assigned the same color. In this note we consider a variant of the…
Two vertices of an odd-distance graph are connected by an edge if and only if their Euclidean distance is an odd integer. We construct a 6-chromatic odd-distance graph in the plane.
The work is devoted to one of the variations of the Hadwiger--Nelson problem on the chromatic number of the plane. In this formulation one needs to find for arbitrarily small $\varepsilon$ the least possible number of colors needed to color…
We give two extensions of the recent theorem of the first author that the odd distance graph has unbounded chromatic number. The first is that for any non-constant polynomial $f$ with integer coefficients and positive leading coefficient,…
Given a natural $n$, we construct a two-coloring of $\mathbb{R}^n$ with the maximum metric satisfying the following. For any finite set of reals $S$ with diameter greater than $5^{n}$ such that the distance between any two consecutive…
We study colorings of the hyperbolic plane, analogously to the Hadwiger-Nelson problem for the Euclidean plane. The idea is to color points using the minimum number of colors such that no two points at distance exactly $d$ are of the same…
