Bounds on the Generalised Acyclic Chromatic Numbers of Bounded Degree Graphs

چکیده
We give upper bounds for the generalised acyclic chromatic number and generalised acyclic edge chromatic number of graphs with maximum degree d, as a function of d. We also produce examples of graphs where these bounds are of the correct order.

Hyperfiniteness and Borel Combinatorics
We study the relationship between hyperfiniteness and problems in Borel graph combinatorics by adapting game-theoretic techniques introduced by Marks to the hyperfinite setting. We compute the possible Borel chromatic numbers and edge chromatic numbers of bounded degree acyclic hyperfinite Borel graphs and use this to answer a question of Kechris and Marks about the relationship between Borel c...
متن کاملHomomorphisms of signed planar graphs
Signed graphs are studied since the middle of the last century. Recently, the notion of homomorphism of signed graphs has been introduced since this notion captures a number of well known conjectures which can be reformulated using the definitions of signed homomorphism. In this paper, we introduce and study the properties of some target graphs for signed homomorphism. Using these properties, w...
متن کاملGame chromatic number of graphs
y Abstract We show that if a graph has acyclic chromatic number k, then its game chromatic number is at most k(k + 1). By applying the known upper bounds for the acyclic chromatic numbers of various classes of graphs, we obtain upper bounds for the game chromatic number of these classes of graphs. In particular, since a planar graph has acyclic chromatic number at most 5, we conclude that the g...
متن کاملOn the oriented chromatic index of oriented graphs
A homomorphism from an oriented graph G to an oriented graph H is a mapping φ from the set of vertices of G to the set of vertices of H such that −−−−−−→ φ(u)φ(v) is an arc in H whenever −→ uv is an arc in G. The oriented chromatic index of an oriented graph G is the minimum number of vertices in an oriented graph H such that there exists a homomorphism from the line digraph LD(G) of G to H (th...
متن کاملA new approach to compute acyclic chromatic index of certain chemical structures
An acyclic edge coloring of a graph is a proper edge coloring such that there are no bichromatic cycles. The acyclic chromatic index of a graph $G$ denoted by $chi_a '(G)$ is the minimum number $k$ such that there is an acyclic edge coloring using $k$ colors. The maximum degree in $G$ denoted by $Delta(G)$, is the lower bound for $chi_a '(G)$. $P$-cuts introduced in this paper acts as a powerfu...
