A K3-WORM coloring of a graph G is an assignment of colors to the vertices in such a way that the vertices of each K3-subgraph of G get precisely two colors. We study graphs G which admit at least one such coloring. We disprove a conjecture of Goddard et al. [Congr. Numer. 219 (2014) 161-173] by proving that for every integer k ≥ 3 there exists a K3-WORM-colorable graph in which the minimum number of colors is exactly k. There also exist K3-WORM colorable graphs which have a K3-WORM coloring with...
The domination game is played on a graph G by two players who alternately take turns by choosing a vertex such that in each turn at least one previously undominated vertex is dominated. The game is over when each vertex becomes dominated. One of the players, namely Dominator, wants to finish the game as soon as possible, while the other one wants to delay the end. The number of turns when Dominator starts the game on G and both players play optimally is the graph invariant γg(G), named the game...
A color-bounded hypergraph is a hypergraph (set system) with vertex set X and edge set = E₁,...,Eₘ, together with integers and satisfying for each i = 1,...,m. A vertex coloring φ is proper if for every i, the number of colors occurring in edge satisfies . The hypergraph ℋ is colorable if it admits at least one proper coloring.
We consider hypergraphs ℋ over a “host graph”, that means a graph G on the same vertex set X as ℋ, such that each induces a connected subgraph in G. In the current...
A 3-consecutive C-coloring of a graph G = (V,E) is a mapping φ:V → ℕ such that every path on three vertices has at most two colors. We prove general estimates on the maximum number of colors in a 3-consecutive C-coloring of G, and characterize the structure of connected graphs with for k = 3 and k = 4.
