چکیده

In this note, we derive an explicit formula for the equitable chromatic number of a complete n-partite graph Kp1 ;p2 ;:::;pn . Namely, if M is the largest integer such that pi (modM)¡ ⌈pi M ⌉ (i = 1; 2; : : : ; n) then e(Kp1 ;p2 ;:::;pn) = n ∑

Equitable colorings of corona multiproducts of graphs

A graph is equitably k-colorable if its vertices can be partitioned into k independent sets in such a way that the number of vertices in any two sets differ by at most one. The smallest k for which such a coloring exists is known as the equitable chromatic number of G and denoted χ=(G). It is known that this problem is NP-hard in general case and remains so for corona graphs. In [12] Lin i Chan...

On r-equitable chromatic threshold of Kronecker products of complete graphs

A graph G is r-equitably k-colorable if its vertex set can be partitioned into k independent sets, any two of which differ in size by at most r. The r-equitable chromatic threshold of a graph G, denoted by χr=(G), is the minimum k such that G is r-equitably k -colorable for all k ≥ k. Let G × H denote the Kronecker product of graphs G and H. In this paper, we completely determine the exact valu...

On Chromatic Uniqueness of Complete Complete 6-Partite Graphs

Let P (G,λ) be the chromatic polynomial of a graph G. Two graphs G and H are said to be chromatically equivalent, denoted G ∼ H, if P (G,λ) = P (H,λ). We write [G] = {H|H ∼ G}. If [G] = {G}, then G is said to be chromatically unique. In this paper, we first characterize certain complete 6-partite graphs G with 6n + i vertices for i = 0, 1, 2 according to the number of 7-independent partitions o...

Factors of r - partite graphs and bounds for the 1 Strong Chromatic Number 2 Anders Johansson

5 We give an optimal degree condition for a tripartite graph to have 6 a spanning subgraph consisting of complete graphs of order 3. This 7 result is used to give an upper bound of 2∆ for the strong chromatic 8 number of n vertex graphs with ∆ ≥ n/6. 9
