We prove that every planar graph with maximum degree ∆ is strong edge (2∆−1)-colorable if its girth is at least 40 [...] +1. The bound 2∆−1 is reached at any graph that has two adjacent vertices of degree ∆.

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....

Given three planar graphs F,H, and G, an (F,H)-WORM coloring of G is a vertex coloring such that no subgraph isomorphic to F is rainbow and no subgraph isomorphic to H is monochromatic. If G has at least one (F,H)-WORM coloring, then W−F,H(G) denotes the minimum number of colors in an (F,H)-WORM coloring of G. We show that (a) W−F,H(G) ≤ 2 if |V (F)| ≥ 3 and H contains a cycle, (b) W−F,H(G) ≤ 3 if |V (F)| ≥ 4 and H is a forest with Δ (H) ≥ 3, (c) W−F,H(G) ≤ 4 if |V (F)| ≥ 5 and H is...

The Kneser graph K(n,k) is the graph whose vertices correspond to k-element subsets of set {1,2,...,n} and two vertices are adjacent if and only if they represent disjoint subsets. In this paper we study the problem of equitable coloring of Kneser graphs, namely, we establish the equitable chromatic number for graphs K(n,2) and K(n,3). In addition, for sufficiently large n, a tight upper bound on equitable chromatic number of graph K(n,k) is given. Finally, the cases of K(2k,k) and K(2k+1,k)...

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.

We provide a tight bound on the set chromatic number of a graph in terms of its chromatic number. Namely, for all graphs G, we show that χs(G) > ⌈log2 χ(G)⌉ + 1, where χs(G) and χ(G) are the set chromatic number and the chromatic number of G, respectively. This answers in the affirmative a conjecture of Gera, Okamoto, Rasmussen and Zhang.

We present an overview of the theory of nowhere zero flows, in particular the duality of flows and colorings, and the extension to antiflows and strong oriented colorings. As the main result, we find the asymptotic relation between oriented and strong oriented chromatic number.

The paper gives an account of previous and recent attempts to determine the order of a smallest graph not containing K₅ and such that every 2-coloring of its edges results in a monochromatic triangle. A new 14-vertex K₄-free graph with the same Ramsey property in the vertex coloring case is found. This yields a new construction of one of the only two known 15-vertex (3,3)-Ramsey graphs not containing K₅.

The Grundy number of a graph G is the maximum number k of colors used to color the vertices of G such that the coloring is proper and every vertex x colored with color i, 1 ≤ i ≤ k, is adjacent to (i-1) vertices colored with each color j, 1 ≤ j ≤ i -1. In this paper we give bounds for the Grundy number of some graphs and cartesian products of graphs. In particular, we determine an exact value of this parameter for n-dimensional meshes and some n-dimensional toroidal meshes. Finally,...
