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.

Grundy number of graphs

Brice Effantin, Hamamache Kheddouci (2007)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

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,...

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...

Optimal Backbone Coloring of Split Graphs with Matching Backbones

Krzysztof Turowski (2015)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

For a graph G with a given subgraph H, the backbone coloring is defined as the mapping c : V (G) → N+ such that |c(u) − c(v)| ≥ 2 for each edge {u, v} ∈ E(H) and |c(u) − c(v)| ≥ 1 for each edge {u, v} ∈ E(G). The backbone chromatic number BBC(G,H) is the smallest integer k such that there exists a backbone coloring with maxv∈V (G) c(v) = k. In this paper, we present the algorithm for the backbone coloring of split graphs with matching backbone.

In this note, we introduce the notion of k -Ramsey classes of graphs and we reveal connections to intersection dimensions of graphs.

On the cost chromatic number of outerplanar, planar, and line graphs

John Mitchem, Patrick Morriss, Edward Schmeichel (1997)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

We consider vertex colorings of graphs in which each color has an associated cost which is incurred each time the color is assigned to a vertex. The cost of the coloring is the sum of the costs incurred at each vertex. The cost chromatic number of a graph with respect to a cost set is the minimum number of colors necessary to produce a minimum cost coloring of the graph. We show that the cost chromatic number of maximal outerplanar and maximal planar graphs can be arbitrarily large and...
