Chromatic numbers of spheres [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics, 2018
The chromatic number of a subset of Euclidean space is the minimal number of colors sufficient for coloring all points of this subset in such a way that any two points at the distance 1 have different colors. We give new upper bounds for chromatic numbers of spheres.

On the Strong Chromatic Number of Graphs [PDF]

open access: yesSIAM Journal on Discrete Mathematics, 2006
The strong chromatic number, $χ_S(G)$, of an $n$-vertex graph $G$ is the smallest number $k$ such that after adding $k\lceil n/k\rceil-n$ isolated vertices to $G$ and considering {\bf any} partition of the vertices of the resulting graph into disjoint subsets $V_1, \ldots, V_{\lceil n/k\rceil}$ of size $k$ each, one can find a proper $k$-vertex ...

The Locating-Chromatic Number of Origami Graphs

open access: yesAlgorithms, 2021
The locating-chromatic number of a graph combines two graph concepts, namely coloring vertices and partition dimension of a graph. The locating-chromatic number is the smallest k such that G has a locating k-coloring, denoted by χL(G).

The Chromatic Number of a Signed Graph [PDF]

open access: yesThe Electronic Journal of Combinatorics, 2016
In 1982, Zaslavsky introduced the concept of a proper vertex colouring of a signed graph $G$ as a mapping $\phi\colon V(G)\to \mathbb{Z}$ such that for any two adjacent vertices $u$ and $v$ the colour $\phi(u)$ is different from the colour $\sigma(uv)\phi(v)$, where is $\sigma(uv)$ is the sign of the edge $uv$.

The b-Chromatic Number of Star Graph Families

open access: yesLe Matematiche, 2010
In this paper, we investigate the b-chromatic number of central graph, middle graph and total graph of star graph, denoted by C(K1,n), M(K1,n)  and  T(K1,n) respectively.

T-Colorings, Divisibility and the Circular Chromatic Number

open access: yesDiscussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory, 2021
Let T be a T -set, i.e., a finite set of nonnegative integers satisfying 0 ∈ T, and G be a graph. In the paper we study relations between the T -edge spans espT (G) and espd⊙T(G), where d is a positive integer and d⊙T={0≤t≤d(maxT+1):d|t⇒t/d∈T}.d \odot T =

Borel Chromatic Numbers

open access: yesAdvances in Mathematics, 1999
From the article: We consider graphs \({\mathcal G}=(X,R)\) where the vertex set \(X\) is a standard Borel space (i.e., a complete separable metrizable space equipped with its \(\sigma\)-algebra of Borel sets), and the edge relation \(R\subseteq X^2\) is ``definable,'' i.e., Borel, analytic, coanalytic, etc.

Bounds on the Distinguishing Chromatic Number [PDF]

open access: yesThe Electronic Journal of Combinatorics, 2009
Collins and Trenk define the distinguishing chromatic number $\chi_D(G)$ of a graph $G$ to be the minimum number of colors needed to properly color the vertices of $G$ so that the only automorphism of $G$ that preserves colors is the identity. They prove results about $\chi_D(G)$ based on the underlying graph $G$.

On circulant chromatic number and circulant chromatic function

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics, 2001
The circulant chromatic number (= star chromatic number, see \textit{A. Vince} [J. Graph Theory 12, No. 4, 551-559 (1988; Zbl 0658.05028)]) is accompanied with the new concept of a circulant chromatic function. Apart from basic facts and examples about this function the paper mainly investigates (in part with the help of this function) the relationship

On the space chromatic number

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics, 2002
A nice open problem is to find the minimum number of colors necessary to color the points of the Euclidean plane so that any two points of unit distance receive distinct colors. This number is known to be at least 4 (by finding a particular set of 6 points that require 4 colors) and 7 (by demonstrating a particular coloring of all the points).
