چکیده

We prove bounds on the chromatic number χ of a vertex-transitive graph in terms of its clique number ω and maximum degree ∆. We conjecture that every vertex-transitive graph satisfies χ 6 max{ω, ⌈ 5∆+3 6 ⌉ }, and we prove results supporting this conjecture. Finally, for vertex-transitive graphs with ∆ > 13 we prove the Borodin–Kostochka conjecture, i.e., χ 6 max{ω,∆− 1}.

Two-geodesic transitive graphs of prime power order

In a non-complete graph $Gamma$, a vertex triple $(u,v,w)$ with $v$ adjacent to both $u$ and $w$ is called a $2$-geodesic if $uneq w$ and $u,w$ are not adjacent. The graph $Gamma$ is said to be   $2$-geodesic transitive if its automorphism group is transitive on arcs, and also on 2-geodesics. We first produce a reduction theorem for the family of $2$-geodesic transitive graphs of prime power or...

On the eigenvalues of normal edge-transitive Cayley graphs

A graph $Gamma$ is said to be vertex-transitive or edge‎- ‎transitive‎ ‎if the automorphism group of $Gamma$ acts transitively on $V(Gamma)$ or $E(Gamma)$‎, ‎respectively‎. ‎Let $Gamma=Cay(G,S)$ be a Cayley graph on $G$ relative to $S$‎. ‎Then, $Gamma$ is said to be normal edge-transitive‎, ‎if $N_{Aut(Gamma)}(G)$ acts transitively on edges‎. ‎In this paper‎, ‎the eigenvalues of normal edge-tra...

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'...

Just chromatic exellence in fuzzy graphs

A fuzzy graph is a symmetric binary fuzzy relation on a fuzzy subset. The concept of fuzzy sets and fuzzy relations was introduced by L.A.Zadeh in 1965cite{zl} and further studiedcite{ka}. It was Rosenfeldcite{ra} who considered fuzzy relations on fuzzy sets and developed the theory of fuzzy graphs in 1975. The concepts of fuzzy trees, blocks, bridges and cut nodes in fuzzy graph has been studi...

Normal edge-transitive Cayley graphs on the non-abelian groups of order $4p^2$, where $p$ is a prime number

In this paper, we determine all of connected normal edge-transitive Cayley graphs on non-abelian groups with order $4p^2$, where $p$ is a prime number.
