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 =

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.

On the circular chromatic number of circular partitionable graphs [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, 2006
AbstractThis article studies the circular chromatic number of a class of circular partitionable graphs. We prove that an infinite family of circular partitionable graphs G has $\chi_ c (G) = \chi(G)$. A consequence of this result is that we obtain an infinite family of graphs G with the rare property that the deletion of each vertex decreases its ...

Circular chromatic number and Mycielski construction [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, 2003
AbstractThis paper gives a sufficient condition for a graph G to have its circular chromatic number equal to its chromatic number. By using this result, we prove that for any integer t ≥ 1, there exists an integer n such that for all $k \ge n, \chi _c (M^t(K_k))\,= \chi(M^t(K_k))$. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Circular chromatic numbers of Mycielski's graphs

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics, 1999
Let \(k\) and \(d\) be integers such that \(0< d\leq k\). A \((k,d)\)-colouring of a graph \(G\) is a colouring \(c\) of the vertices of \(G\) with \(k\) colours \(0,1,\dots, k-1\) such that for any edge \(xy\), we have \(d\leq|c(x)- c(y)|\leq k-d\).

Circular chromatic numbers of a class of distance graphs

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics, 2003
For positive integers \(m\), \(k\), \(s\) with \(m\geq sk\) let \(D_{m,k,s}\) denote the set \(\{1,2,\dots, m\}\setminus\{k,2k,\dots, sk\}\). The distance graph has as vertices all integers and as edges the pairs \(i\), \(j\) with \(|i-j|\in D_{m,k,s}\). The author determines the circular chromatic number (a generalization of the star chromatic number)

Circular chromatic number for iterated Mycielski graphs

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics, 2004
Given positive integers \(k,d,\;k \geq 2d\), a \((k,d)\)-coloring of a graph \(G\) is a mapping \(c:\;V(G) \to \{0,1,\dots, k-1\}\) such that for each edge \(xy \in E(G)\), \(| c(x) - c(y)| _k \geq d\) (where \(| a-b| _k = \min\{ | a-b| ,k-| a-b| \}\)). The star chromatic number \(\chi^*(G)\) is defined as the infimum of \(\frac{k}{d}\) over the pairs \

Circular chromatic numbers of some distance graphs

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics, 2005
The circular chromatic number of a graph is a natural generalization of the chromatic number (introduced under the name star chromatic number) of a graph. It is the infimum of the ratios \(p/q\) for which there exist \((p,q)\)-colourings of a graph. The authors determine the circular chromatic numbers of some graphs.

Circular Chromatic Number of Signed Graphs [PDF]

open access: yesThe Electronic Journal of Combinatorics, 2021
A signed graph is a pair $(G, \sigma)$, where $G$ is a graph (loops and multi edges allowed) and $\sigma: E(G) \to \{+, -\}$ is a signature which assigns to each edge of $G$ a sign. Various notions of coloring of signed graphs have been studied. In this paper, we extend circular coloring of graphs to signed graphs.
