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 $G$.

The Local Chromatic Number [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The local chromatic number ψ(G) of a graph G is a graph colouring parameter that is defined as ψ(G) = min c max v∈V (G) |c(Γ̄(v))| where the minimum is taken over all proper colourings c of G and Γ̄(v) denotes the closed neighbourhood of a vertex v.

The $b$-Chromatic Number and $f$-Chromatic Vertex Number of Regular Graphs

open access: yesDiscret. Appl. Math., 2013
The $b$-chromatic number of a graph $G$, denoted by $b(G)$, is the largest positive integer $k$ such that there exists a proper coloring for G with $k$ colors in which every color class contains at least one vertex adjacent to some vertex in each of the other color classes, such a vertex is called a dominant vertex. The $f$-chromatic vertex number of a

On the complexity of the circular chromatic number [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, 2004
AbstractCircular chromatic number, χcis a natural generalization of chromatic number. It is known that it isNP‐hard to determine whether or not an arbitrary graphGsatisfies χ(G)=χc(G). In this paper we prove that this problem isNP‐hard even if the chromatic number of the graph is known. This answers a question of Xuding Zhu.

Face-wise Chromatic Number [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The chromatic number is a well-studied graph invariant. This is the smallest number of colors necessary to color all the vertices such that no two vertices adjacent to the same edge are the same color.

Chromatic and clique numbers of a class of perfect graphs [PDF]

open access: yesTransactions on Combinatorics, 2015
Let p be a prime number and n be a positive integer. The graph G p (n) is a graph with vertex set [n]=1,2,ldots,n , in which there is an arc from u to v if and only if uneqv and pnmidu+v . In this paper it is shown that G p (n) is a perfect

On the adaptable chromatic number of graphs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
The adaptable chromatic number of a graph G is the smallest integer k such that for any edge k-colouring of G there exists a vertex k-colouring of G in which the same colour never appears on an edge and both its endpoints.

The Incidence Chromatic Number of Toroidal Grids

open access: yesDiscussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory, 2013
An incidence in a graph G is a pair (v, e) with v ∈ V (G) and e ∈ E(G), such that v and e are incident. Two incidences (v, e) and (w, f) are adjacent if v = w, or e = f, or the edge vw equals e or f.
