Bounds for the b-Chromatic Number of Subgraphs and Edge-Deleted Subgraphs

P. Francis, S. Francis Raj (2016)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

A b-coloring of a graph G with k colors is a proper coloring of G using k colors in which each color class contains a color dominating vertex, that is, a vertex which has a neighbor in each of the other color classes. The largest positive integer k for which G has a b-coloring using k colors is the b-chromatic number b(G) of G. In this paper, we obtain bounds for the b- chromatic number of induced subgraphs in terms of the b-chromatic number of the original graph. This turns out to be...

Backbone colorings along stars and matchings in split graphs: their span is close to the chromatic number

Hajo Broersma, Bert Marchal, Daniel Paulusma, A.N.M. Salman (2009)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

We continue the study on backbone colorings, a variation on classical vertex colorings that was introduced at WG2003. Given a graph G = (V,E) and a spanning subgraph H of G (the backbone of G), a λ-backbone coloring for G and H is a proper vertex coloring V→ {1,2,...} of G in which the colors assigned to adjacent vertices in H differ by at least λ. The algorithmic and combinatorial properties of backbone colorings have been studied for various types of backbones in a number of papers....

List coloring of complete multipartite graphs

Tomáš Vetrík (2012)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

The choice number of a graph G is the smallest integer k such that for every assignment of a list L(v) of k colors to each vertex v of G, there is a proper coloring of G that assigns to each vertex v a color from L(v). We present upper and lower bounds on the choice number of complete multipartite graphs with partite classes of equal sizes and complete r-partite graphs with r-1 partite classes of order two.

K3-Worm Colorings of Graphs: Lower Chromatic Number and Gaps in the Chromatic Spectrum

Csilla Bujtás, Zsolt Tuza (2016)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

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...

The set chromatic number of a graph

Gary Chartrand, Futaba Okamoto, Craig W. Rasmussen, Ping Zhang (2009)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

For a nontrivial connected graph G, let c: V(G)→ N be a vertex coloring of G where adjacent vertices may be colored the same. For a vertex v of G, the neighborhood color set NC(v) is the set of colors of the neighbors of v. The coloring c is called a set coloring if NC(u) ≠ NC(v) for every pair u,v of adjacent vertices of G. The minimum number of colors required of such a coloring is called the set chromatic number χₛ(G) of G. The set chromatic numbers of some well-known classes of graphs...

On acyclic colorings of direct products

Simon Špacapan, Aleksandra Tepeh Horvat (2008)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

A coloring of a graph G is an acyclic coloring if the union of any two color classes induces a forest. It is proved that the acyclic chromatic number of direct product of two trees T₁ and T₂ equals min{Δ(T₁) + 1, Δ(T₂) + 1}. We also prove that the acyclic chromatic number of direct product of two complete graphs Kₘ and Kₙ is mn-m-2, where m ≥ n ≥ 4. Several bounds for the acyclic chromatic number of direct products are given and in connection to this some questions are raised. ...
