Graphs with Large Distinguishing Chromatic Number [PDF]

open access: yesThe Electronic Journal of Combinatorics, 2013
The distinguishing chromatic number $\chi_D(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the minimum number of colours required to properly colour the vertices of $G$ so that the only automorphism of $G$ that preserves colours is the identity. For a graph $G$ of order $n$, it is clear that $1\leq\chi_D(G)\leq n$, and it has been shown that $\chi_D(G)=n$ if and only if $G$ is

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 Distinguishing Chromatic Number of Kneser Graphs [PDF]

open access: yesThe Electronic Journal of Combinatorics, 2013
A labeling $f: V(G) \rightarrow \{1, 2, \ldots, d\}$ of the vertex set of a graph $G$ is said to be proper $d$-distinguishing if it is a proper coloring of $G$ and any nontrivial automorphism of $G$ maps at least one vertex to a vertex with a different label.

Chromatic number is Ramsey distinguishing [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, 2021
AbstractA graph is Ramsey for a graph if every colouring of the edges of in two colours contains a monochromatic copy of . Two graphs and are Ramsey equivalent if any graph is Ramsey for if and only if it is Ramsey for . A graph parameter is Ramsey distinguishing if implies that and are not Ramsey equivalent.

Nordhaus-Gaddum Theorem for the Distinguishing Chromatic Number [PDF]

open access: yesThe Electronic Journal of Combinatorics, 2013
Nordhaus and Gaddum proved, for any graph $G$, that $\chi(G) + \chi(\overline{G}) \leq n + 1$, where $\chi$ is the chromatic number and $n=|V(G)|$. Finck characterized the class of graphs, which we call NG-graphs, that satisfy equality in this bound. In this paper, we provide a new characterization of NG-graphs, based on vertex degrees, which yields a ...

Neighbor Sum Distinguishing Total Chromatic Number of Graphs with Lower Average Degree

open access: yesJournal of Mathematical Study, 2023
Summary: For a given simple graph \(G = (V(G),E(G)),\) a proper total-\(k\)-coloring \(c : V(G) \cup E(G) \rightarrow \{1,2,\dots,k\}\) is neighbor sum distinguishing if \(f(u) \neq f(v)\) for each edge \(uv \in E(G)\), where \(f(v) = \Sigma_{wv \in E(G)} c(wv)+c(v)\).
