Applications of hypergraph coloring to coloring graphs not inducing certain trees

open access: closedDiscrete Mathematics, 1996
The authors present a simple result on coloring hypergraphs and use it to obtain bounds on the chromatic number of graphs which do not induce certain trees. Several open problems are discussed.

New hardness results for graph and hypergraph colorings.

open access: closed, 2016
Finding a proper coloring of a t-colorable graph G with t colors is a classic NP-hard problem when t ≥ 3. In this work, we investigate the approximate coloring problem in which the objective is to find a proper c-coloring of G where c ≥ t. We show that for all t ≥ 3, it is NP-hard to find a c-coloring when c ≤ 2t - 2.

Scheduling Problems and Generalized Graph Coloring [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2020
We define a new type of vertex coloring which generalizes vertex coloring in graphs, hypergraphs, andsimplicial complexes. To this coloring there is an associated symmetric function in noncommuting variables for whichwe give a deletion-contraction ...

Zero-Free Intervals of Chromatic Polynomials of Mixed Hypergraphs

open access: yesMathematics, 2022
A mixed hypergraph H is a triple (X,C,D), where X is a finite set and each of C and D is a family of subsets of X. For any positive integer λ, a proper λ-coloring of H is an assignment of λ colors to vertices in H such that each member in C contains at ...

A Theoretical Investigation Based on the Rough Approximations of Hypergraphs

open access: yesJournal of Mathematics, 2022
Rough sets are a key tool to model uncertainty and vagueness using upper and lower approximations without predefined functions and additional suppositions.

Dimension, Graph and Hypergraph Coloring

open access: yesOrder, 2000
A linear extension \(L\) of a poset \(P\) reverses an incomparable pair \((x,y)\) of \(P\) if \(x>y\) in \(L\). A set \(S\) of incomparable pairs forms a strict alternating cycle of \(P\) if no linear extension of \(P\) reverses all pairs in \(S\) but for all \(T \subset S\) there is a linear extension of \(P\) which reverses all pairs in \(T\).

Graphs with coloring redundant edges

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Graph Theory and Applications, 2016
A graph edge is $d$-coloring redundant if the removal of the edge doesnot change the set of $d$-colorings of the graph. Graphs that are toosparse or too dense do not have coloring redundant edges.

Turán Density of $2$-Edge-Colored Bipartite Graphs with Application on $\{2, 3\}$-Hypergraphs [PDF]

open access: yesThe Electronic Journal of Combinatorics, 2021
We consider the Turán problems of $2$-edge-colored graphs. A $2$-edge-colored graph $H=(V, E_r, E_b)$ is a triple consisting of the vertex set $V$, the set of red edges $E_r$ and the set of blue edges $E_b$ where $E_r$ and $E_b$ do not have to be disjoint. The Turán density $\pi(H)$ of $H$ is defined to be $\lim_{n\to\infty} \max_{G_n}h_n(G_n)$, where $
