Radio antipodal colorings of graphs

Gary Chartrand, David Erwin, Ping Zhang (2002)

Mathematica Bohemica

Similarity:

A radio antipodal coloring of a connected graph $G$ with diameter $d$ is an assignment of positive integers to the vertices of $G$ , with $x \in V (G)$ assigned $c (x)$ , such that $d (u, v) + | c (u) - c (v) | \geq d$ for every two distinct vertices $u$ , $v$ of $G$ , where $d (u, v)$ is the distance between $u$ and $v$ in $G$ . The radio antipodal coloring number $a c (c)$ of a radio antipodal coloring $c$ of $G$ is the maximum color assigned to a vertex of $G$ . The radio antipodal chromatic number $a c (G)$ of $G$ is $min {a c (c)}$ over all radio antipodal colorings $c$ of $G$ . Radio antipodal chromatic numbers...

Defining sets in (proper) vertex colorings of the Cartesian product of a cycle with a complete graph

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

In a given graph G = (V,E), a set of vertices S with an assignment of colors to them is said to be a defining set of the vertex coloring of G, if there exists a unique extension of the colors of S to a c ≥ χ(G) coloring of the vertices of G. A defining set with minimum cardinality is called a minimum defining set and its cardinality is the defining number, denoted by d(G,c). The d(G = Cₘ × Kₙ, χ(G)) has been studied. In this note we show that the exact value of defining number d(G =...

On detectable colorings of graphs

Henry Escuadro, Ping Zhang (2005)

Mathematica Bohemica

Similarity:

Let $G$ be a connected graph of order $n \geq 3$ and let $c E (G) \to {1, 2, ..., k}$ be a coloring of the edges of $G$ (where adjacent edges may be colored the same). For each vertex $v$ of $G$ , the color code of $v$ with respect to $c$ is the $k$ -tuple $c (v) = (a_{1}, a_{2}, \dots, a_{k})$ , where $a_{i}$ is the number of edges incident with $v$ that are colored $i$ ( $1 \leq i \leq k$ ). The coloring $c$ is detectable if distinct vertices have distinct color codes. The detection number $det (G)$ of $G$ is the minimum positive integer $k$ for which $G$ has a detectable $k$ -coloring. We establish a formula for the...

On the dominator colorings in trees

Houcine Boumediene Merouane, Mustapha Chellali (2012)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

In a graph G, a vertex is said to dominate itself and all its neighbors. A dominating set of a graph G is a subset of vertices that dominates every vertex of G. The domination number γ(G) is the minimum cardinality of a dominating set of G. A proper coloring of a graph G is a function from the set of vertices of the graph to a set of colors such that any two adjacent vertices have different colors. A dominator coloring of a graph G is a proper coloring such that every vertex of V dominates...

On stratification and domination in graphs

Ralucca Gera, Ping Zhang (2006)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

A graph G is 2-stratified if its vertex set is partitioned into two classes (each of which is a stratum or a color class), where the vertices in one class are colored red and those in the other class are colored blue. Let F be a 2-stratified graph rooted at some blue vertex v. An F-coloring of a graph is a red-blue coloring of the vertices of G in which every blue vertex v belongs to a copy of F rooted at v. The F-domination number $γ_{F} (G)$ is the minimum number of red vertices in an F-coloring...
