Adjacent vertex-distinguishing edge coloring of graphs

چکیده
An adjacent vertex-distinguishing edge coloring, or avd-coloring, of a graph G is a proper edge coloring of G such that no pair of adjacent vertices meets the same set of colors. Let mad(G) and ∆(G) denote the maximum average degree and the maximum degree of a graph G, respectively. In this paper, we prove that every graph G with ∆(G) ≥ 5 and mad(G) < 3− 2 ∆ can be avd-colored with ∆(G) + 1 colors. This completes a result of Wang and Wang [10].

Edge-coloring Vertex-weightings of Graphs
Let $G=(V(G),E(G))$ be a simple, finite and undirected graph of order $n$. A $k$-vertex weightings of a graph $G$ is a mapping $w: V(G) to {1, ldots, k}$. A $k$-vertex weighting induces an edge labeling $f_w: E(G) to N$ such that $f_w(uv)=w(u)+w(v)$. Such a labeling is called an {it edge-coloring k-vertex weightings} if $f_{w}(e)not= f_{w}(echr(chr(chr('39')39chr('39'))39chr(chr('39')39chr('39'...
متن کاملAdjacent Vertex Distinguishing Edge-Colorings
An adjacent vertex distinguishing edge-coloring of a simple graph G is a proper edge-coloring of G such that no pair of adjacent vertices meets the same set of colors. The minimum number of colors χa(G) required to give G an adjacent vertex distinguishing coloring is studied for graphs with no isolated edge. We prove χa(G) ≤ 5 for such graphs with maximum degree Δ(G) = 3 and prove χa(G) ≤ Δ(G) ...
متن کاملAdjacent vertex distinguishing edge-colorings of planar graphs with girth at least six
An adjacent vertex distinguishing edge-coloring of a graph G is a proper edge-coloring of G such that any pair of adjacent vertices are incident to distinct sets of colors. The minimum number of colors required for an adjacent vertex distinguishing edge-coloring of G is denoted by χ a (G). We prove that χ a (G) is at most the maximum degree plus 2 if G is a planar graph without isolated edges w...
متن کاملGap vertex-distinguishing edge colorings of graphs
In this paper, we study a new coloring parameter of graphs called the gap vertexdistinguishing edge coloring. It consists in an edge-coloring of a graph G which induces a vertex distinguishing labeling of G such that the label of each vertex is given by the difference between the highest and the lowest colors of its adjacent edges. The minimum number of colors required for a gap vertex-distingu...
متن کاملVertex-distinguishing edge colorings of random graphs
A proper edge coloring of a simple graph G is called vertex-distinguishing if no two distinct vertices are incident to the same set of colors. We prove that the minimum number of colors required for a vertex-distinguishing coloring of a random graph of order n is almost always equal to the maximum degree ∆(G) of the graph.
