Similarity:

A total k-coloring of a graph G is a coloring of vertices and edges of G using colors of the set [k] = {1, . . . , k}. These colors can be used to distinguish the vertices of G. There are many possibilities of such a distinction. In this paper, we consider the sum of colors on incident edges and adjacent vertices.

Almost-Rainbow Edge-Colorings of Some Small Subgraphs

Elliot Krop, Irina Krop (2013)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

Let f(n, p, q) be the minimum number of colors necessary to color the edges of Kn so that every Kp is at least q-colored. We improve current bounds on these nearly “anti-Ramsey” numbers, first studied by Erdös and Gyárfás. We show that [...] , slightly improving the bound of Axenovich. We make small improvements on bounds of Erdös and Gyárfás by showing [...] and for all even n ≢ 1(mod 3), f(n, 4, 5) ≤ n− 1. For a complete bipartite graph G= Kn,n, we show an n-color construction to color...

Vertex-distinguishing edge-colorings of linear forests

Sylwia Cichacz, Jakub Przybyło (2010)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

In the PhD thesis by Burris (Memphis (1993)), a conjecture was made concerning the number of colors c(G) required to edge-color a simple graph G so that no two distinct vertices are incident to the same multiset of colors. We find the exact value of c(G) - the irregular coloring number, and hence verify the conjecture when G is a vertex-disjoint union of paths. We also investigate the point-distinguishing chromatic index, χ₀(G), where sets, instead of multisets, are required to be distinct,...

The upper domination Ramsey number u(4,4)

Tomasz Dzido, Renata Zakrzewska (2006)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

The upper domination Ramsey number u(m,n) is the smallest integer p such that every 2-coloring of the edges of Kₚ with color red and blue, Γ(B) ≥ m or Γ(R) ≥ n, where B and R is the subgraph of Kₚ induced by blue and red edges, respectively; Γ(G) is the maximum cardinality of a minimal dominating set of a graph G. In this paper, we show that u(4,4) ≤ 15.

Rainbow Ramsey theorems for colorings establishing negative partition relations

András Hajnal (2008)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Similarity:

Given a function f, a subset of its domain is a rainbow subset for f if f is one-to-one on it. We start with an old Erdős problem: Assume f is a coloring of the pairs of ω₁ with three colors such that every subset A of ω₁ of size ω₁ contains a pair of each color. Does there exist a rainbow triangle? We investigate rainbow problems and results of this style for colorings of pairs establishing negative "square bracket" relations.
