چکیده

We show that the q-Kneser graph q K2k:k (the graph on the k-subspaces of a 2k-space over G F(q), where two k-spaces are adjacent when they intersect trivially), has chromatic number qk + qk−1 for k = 3 and for k < q log q − q . We obtain detailed results on maximal cocliques for k = 3.

On the Edge-Difference and Edge-Sum Chromatic Sum of the Simple Graphs

‎For a coloring $c$ of a graph $G$‎, ‎the edge-difference coloring sum and edge-sum coloring sum with respect to the coloring $c$ are respectively‎ ‎$sum_c D(G)=sum |c(a)-c(b)|$ and $sum_s S(G)=sum (c(a)+c(b))$‎, ‎where the summations are taken over all edges $abin E(G)$‎. ‎The edge-difference chromatic sum‎, ‎denoted by $sum D(G)$‎, ‎and the edge-sum chromatic sum‎, ‎denoted by $sum S(G)$‎, ‎a...

The (p, q)-extremal problem and the fractional chromatic number of Kneser hypergraphs

The problem of computing the chromatic number of Kneser hypergraphs has been extensively studied over the last 40 years and the fractional version of the chromatic number of Kneser hypergraphs is only solved for particular cases. The (p, q)-extremal problem consists in finding the maximum number of edges on a k-uniform hypergraph H with n vertices such that among any p edges some q of them have...

Local chromatic number and the Borsuk-Ulam Theorem

The local chromatic number of a graph was introduced in [13]. It is in between the chromatic and fractional chromatic numbers. This motivates the study of the local chromatic number of graphs for which these quantities are far apart. Such graphs include Kneser graphs, their vertex color-critical subgraphs, the stable Kneser (or Schrijver) graphs; Mycielski graphs, and their generalizations; and...

Random Kneser graphs and hypergraphs

A Kneser graph KGn,k is a graph whose vertices are all k-element subsets of [n], with two vertices connected if and only if the corresponding sets do not intersect. A famous result due to Lovász states that the chromatic number of a Kneser graph KGn,k is equal to n − 2k + 2. In this paper we discuss the chromatic number of random Kneser graphs and hypergraphs. It was studied in two recent paper...
