چکیده

A colored mixed graph has vertices linked by both colored arcs and colored edges. The chromatic number of such a graph G is defined as the smallest order of a colored mixed graph H such that there exists a (arc-color preserving) homomorphism from G to H . We study in this paper the colored mixed chromatic number of planar graphs, partial 2-trees and outerplanar graphs with given girth.

Colored Homomorphisms of Colored Mixed Graphs

The homomorphisms of oriented or undirected graphs, the oriented chromatic number, the relationship between acyclic coloring number and oriented chromatic number, have been recently studied. Improving and combining earlier techniques of N. Alon and T. H. Marshall (1998, J. Algebraic Combin. 8, 5 13) and A. Raspaud and E. Sopena (1994, Inform. Process. Lett. 51, 171 174) we prove here a general ...

Homomorphisms from sparse graphs with large girth

We show that a planar graph with girth at least 20t−2 3 has circular chromatic number at most 2+ 1t , improving earlier results. This follows from a general result establishing homomorphisms into special targets for graphs with given girth and given maximum average degree. Other applications concern oriented chromatic number and homomorphisms into mixed graphs with colored edges.

Analogous to cliques for (m,n)-colored mixed graphs

A (m,n)-colored mixed graph is a graph having arcs of m different colors and edges of n different colors. A graph homomorphism of a (m,n)-colored mixed graph G to a (m,n)colored mixed graph H is a vertex mapping such that if uv is an arc (edge) of color c in G, then f(u)f(v) is also an arc (edge) of color c. The (m,n)-colored mixed chromatic number χ(m,n)(G) of a (m,n)-colored mixed graph G, in...

On Chromatic Number of Colored Mixed Graphs

An (m,n)-colored mixed graph G is a graph with its arcs having one of the m different colors and edges having one of the n different colors. A homomorphism f of an (m,n)colored mixed graph G to an (m,n)-colored mixed graph H is a vertex mapping such that if uv is an arc (edge) of color c in G, then f(u)f(v) is an arc (edge) of color c in H . The (m,n)-colored mixed chromatic number χ(m,n)(G) of...

Oriented, 2-edge-colored, and 2-vertex-colored homomorphisms

We show that the 2-edge-colored chromatic number of a class of simple graphs is bounded if and only if the acyclic chromatic number is bounded for this class. Recently, the CSP dichotomy conjecture has been reduced to the case of 2-edge-colored homomorphism and to the case of 2-vertex-colored homomorphism. Both reductions are rather long and follow the reduction to the case of oriented homomorp...
