On the Acyclic Chromatic Number of Hamming Graphs

چکیده
An acyclic coloring of a graph G is a proper coloring of the vertex set of G such that G contains no bichromatic cycles. The acyclic chromatic number of a graph G is the minimum number k such that G has an acyclic coloring with k colors. In this paper, acyclic colorings of Hamming graphs, products of complete graphs, are considered.

A 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...
متن کاملThe locating-chromatic number for Halin graphs
Let G be a connected graph. Let f be a proper k -coloring of G and Π = (R_1, R_2, . . . , R_k) bean ordered partition of V (G) into color classes. For any vertex v of G, define the color code c_Π(v) of v with respect to Π to be a k -tuple (d(v, R_1), d(v, R_2), . . . , d(v, R_k)), where d(v, R_i) is the min{d(v, x)|x ∈ R_i}. If distinct vertices have distinct color codes, then we call f a locat...
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 کاملBounds on the Generalised Acyclic Chromatic Numbers of Bounded Degree Graphs
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.
متن کاملOn 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...
