Majority Edge-Colorings of Graphs

open access: yesThe Electronic Journal of Combinatorics, 2023
We propose the notion of a majority $k$-edge-coloring of a graph $G$, which is an edge-coloring of $G$ with $k$ colors such that, for every vertex $u$ of $G$, at most half the edges of $G$ incident with $u$ have the same color. We show the best possible results that every graph of minimum degree at least $2$ has a majority $4$-edge-coloring, and that ...

Nonrepetitive edge-colorings of trees [PDF]

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics & Theoretical Computer Science, 2017
A repetition is a sequence of symbols in which the first half is the same as the second half. An edge-coloring of a graph is repetition-free or nonrepetitive if there is no path with a color pattern that is a repetition.

Parsimonious edge coloring

open access: yesDiscrete Mathematics, 1996
The authors investigate the largest fraction of edges in a 3-regular graph that can be colored in 3 colors. They show that this fraction is always at least 13/15 and sometimes at most 25/27. They investigate the analogous problem for graphs of maximum degree 3 and also for 4-regular graphs with 4 colors instead of 3.

Facial graceful coloring of plane graphs [PDF]

open access: yesOpuscula Mathematica
Let \(G\) be a plane graph. Two edges of \(G\) are facially adjacent if they are consecutive on the boundary walk of a face of \(G\). A facial edge coloring of \(G\) is an edge coloring such that any two facially adjacent edges receive different colors ...

Improved Bounds for Some Facially Constrained Colorings

open access: yesDiscussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory, 2023
A facial-parity edge-coloring of a 2-edge-connected plane graph is a facially-proper edge-coloring in which every face is incident with zero or an odd number of edges of each color. A facial-parity vertex-coloring of a 2-connected plane graph is a proper

A structural approach to the graceful coloring of a subclass of trees

open access: yesHeliyon, 2023
Let M={1,2,..m} and G be a simple graph. A graceful m-coloring of G is a proper vertex coloring of G using the colors in M which leads to a proper edge coloring using M∖{m} colors such that the associated color of each edge is the absolute difference ...

On the Star Chromatic Index of Generalized Petersen Graphs

open access: yesDiscussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory, 2021
The star k-edge-coloring of graph G is a proper edge coloring using k colors such that no path or cycle of length four is bichromatic. The minimum number k for which G admits a star k-edge-coloring is called the star chromatic index of G, denoted by χ′s (

Grünbaum colorings extended to non-facial 3-cycles

open access: yesElectronic Journal of Graph Theory and Applications, 2022
We consider the question of when a triangulation with a Grünbaum coloring can be edge-colored with three colors such that the non-facial 3-cycles also receive all three colors; we will call this a strong Grünbaum coloring.
