We bound the hereditary discrepancy of a hypergraph $\HH$ in two colors in terms of its hereditary discrepancy in $c$ colors. We show that $\herdisc(\HH,2) \le K c \herdisc(\HH,c)$, where $K$ is some absolute constant. This bound is sharp.
We prove that the vertices of every $(r + 1)$-uniform hypergraph with maximum degree $\Delta$ may be coloured with $c(\frac{\Delta}{d + 1})^{1/r}$ colours such that each vertex is in at most $d$ monochromatic edges. This result, which is…
A two-coloring of the vertices $V$ of the hypergraph $H=(V, E)$ by red and blue has discrepancy $d$ if $d$ is the largest difference between the number of red and blue points in any edge. Let $f(n)$ be the fewest number of edges in an…
Casselgren, Markst\"orm, and Pham conjectured that any precolored dis\-tan\-ce-2 matching in the $d$-dimensional cube $Q_d$ with at most $d$ colors can be extended to a proper $d$-edge-coloring. In this paper, we prove this conjecture and…
A C-coloring of a hypergraph ${\cal H}=(X,{\cal E})$ is a vertex coloring $\varphi: X\to {\mathbb{N}}$ such that each edge $E\in{\cal E}$ has at least two vertices with a common color. The related parameter $\overline{\chi}({\cal H})$,…
A \emph{domatic} (\emph{total domatic}) \emph{$k$-coloring} of a graph $G$ is an assignment of $k$ colors to the vertices of $G$ such that each vertex contains vertices of all $k$ colors in its closed neighborhood (neighborhood). The…
The distinguishing number of a graph $H$ is a symmetry related graph invariant whose study started two decades ago. The distinguishing number $D(H)$ is the least integer $d$ such that $H$ has a $d$-distinguishing coloring. A…
A graph $G$ is said to be $d$-distinguishable if there is a vertex coloring of $G$ with a set of $d$ colors which breaks all of the automorphisms of $G$ but the identity. We call the minimum $d$ for which a graph $G$ is $d$-distinguishiable…
Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a $t$-regular hypergraph on $n$ vertices and $m$ edges. Let $M$ be the $m \times n$ incidence matrix of $\mathcal{H}$ and let us denote $\lambda =\max_{v \perp \overline{1},\|v\| = 1}\|Mv\|$. We show that the…
A surprising diversity of different products of hypergraphs have been discussed in the literature. Most of the hypergraph products can be viewed as generalizations of one of the four standard graph products. The most widely studied variant,…
A graph $G$ is class II, if its chromatic index is at least $\Delta+1$. Let $H$ be a maximum $\Delta$-edge-colorable subgraph of $G$. The paper proves best possible lower bounds for $\frac{|E(H)|}{|E(G)|}$, and structural properties of…
A symmetric digraph $\overleftrightarrow{G}$ is obtained from a simple graph $G$ by replacing each edge $uv$ with a pair of opposite arcs $\vec{uv}$, $\overrightarrow{vu}$. An arc-colouring $c$ of a digraph $\overleftrightarrow{G}$ is…
A harmonious coloring of a $k$-uniform hypergraph $H$ is a vertex coloring such that no two vertices in the same edge have the same color, and each $k$-element subset of colors appears on at most one edge. The harmonious number $h(H)$ is…
We prove the following asymptotically tight lower bound for $k$-color discrepancy: For any $k \geq 2$, there exists a hypergraph with $n$ hyperedges such that its $k$-color discrepancy is at least $\Omega(\sqrt{n})$. This improves on the…
The {\em overlap number} of a finite $(d+1)$-uniform hypergraph $H$ is defined as the largest constant $c(H)\in (0,1]$ such that no matter how we map the vertices of $H$ into $\R^d$, there is a point covered by at least a $c(H)$-fraction of…
Let $H$ be a triple system with maximum degree $d>1$ and let $r>10^7\sqrt{d}\log^{2}d$. Then $H$ has a proper vertex coloring with $r$ colors such that any two color classes differ in size by at most one. The bound on $r$ is sharp in order…
We consider the following extension of the concept of adjacent strong edge colourings of graphs without isolated edges. Two distinct vertices which are at distant at most $r$ in a graph are called $r$-adjacent. The least number of colours…
In this paper, we explore algebraic approaches to $d$-improper and $t$-clustered colourings, where the colouring constraints are relaxed to allow some monochromatic edges. Bilu [J. Comb. Theory Ser. B, 96(4):608-613, 2006] proved a…
A colouring of a hypergraph's vertices is polychromatic if every hyperedge contains at least one vertex of each colour; the polychromatic number is the maximum number of colours in such a colouring. Its dual, the cover-decomposition number,…
The competition hypergraph $C{\cH}(D)$ of a digraph $D$ is the hypergraph such that the vertex set is the same as $D$ and $e \subseteq V(D)$ is a hyperedge if and only if $e$ contains at least 2 vertices and $e$ coincides with the…
