چکیده

We obtain new necessary conditions on a graph which shares the same chromatic polynomial as that of the complete tripartite graph Km,n,r. Using these, we establish the chromatic equivalence classes for K1,n,n+1 (where n ≥ 2). This gives a partial solution to a question raised earlier by the authors. With the same technique, we further show that Kn−3,n,n+1 is chromatically unique if n ≥ 5. In the more general situation, we show that if 2 ≤ m ≤ n, then Km,n,n+1 is chromatically unique if n is sufficiently large.

Chromaticity of Turan Graphs with At Most Three Edges Deleted

Let $P(G,lambda)$ be the chromatic polynomial of a graph $G$. A graph $G$ ischromatically unique if for any graph $H$, $P(H, lambda) = P(G,lambda)$ implies $H$ is isomorphic to $G$. In this paper, we determine the chromaticity of all Tur'{a}n graphs with at most three edges deleted. As a by product, we found many families of chromatically unique graphs and chromatic equivalence classes of graph...

Chromaticity of certain tripartite graphs identified with a path

For a graphG, let P(G) be its chromatic polynomial. Two graphsG andH are chromatically equivalent if P(G)=P(H). A graph G is chromatically unique if P(H)= P(G) implies that H G. In this paper, we classify the chromatic classes of graphs obtained from K2,2,2 ∪ Pm(m 3), (K2,2,2 − e) ∪ Pm(m 5) and (K2,2,2 − 2e) ∪ Pm(m 6) by identifying the end-vertices of the path Pm with any two vertices of K2,2,...

Chromatic classes of 2-connected (n, n+4)-graphs with three triangles and one induced 4-cycle

For a graphG, let P(G, λ)be its chromatic polynomial. TwographsG andH are chromatically equivalent, denoted G ∼ H , if P(G, λ) = P(H, λ). A graph G is chromatically unique if P(H, λ) = P(G, λ) implies that H ∼= G. In this paper, we shall determine all chromatic equivalence classes of 2-connected (n, n+ 4)-graphs with three triangles and one induced 4-cycle, under the equivalence relation ‘ ∼’. ...

Chromaticity of Complete Tripartite Graphs With Certain Star or Matching Deleted

Let P (G, λ) be the chromatic polynomial of a graph G. Two graphs G and H are said to be chromatically equivalent, denoted G ∼ H, if P (G, λ) = P (H, λ). We write [G] = {H|H ∼ G}. If [G] = {G}, then G is said to be chromatically unique. In this paper, we first characterize certain complete 6-partite graphs with 6n vertices according to the number of 7-independent partitions of G. Using these re...
