The distinguishing chromatic number of bipartite graphs of girth at least six
The distinguishing number $D(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the least integer $d$ such that $G$ has a vertex labeling with $d$ labels that is preserved only by a trivial automorphism. The distinguishing chromatic number $chi_{D}(G)$ of $G$ is defined similarly, where, in addition, $f$ is assumed to be a proper labeling. We prove that if $G$ is a bipartite graph of girth at least six with the maximum ...
متن کاملAn asymptotically tight bound on the adaptable chromatic number
The adaptable chromatic number of a multigraph G, denoted χa(G), is the smallest integer k such that every edge labeling of G from [k] = {1, 2, · · · , k} permits a vertex coloring of G from [k] such that no edge e = uv has c(e) = c(u) = c(v). Hell and Zhu proved that for any multigraph G with maximum degree ∆, the adaptable chromatic number is at most lp e(2∆− 1) m . We strengthen this to the ...
متن کاملList total colorings of graphs
We introduce the concept of list total colorings and prove that every multigraph of maximum degree 3 is 5-total-choosable. We also show that the total-choosability of a graph of maximum degree 2 is equal to its total chromatic number.
متن کاملThe chromatic index of multigraphs of order at most 10
The maximum of the maximum degree and the 'odd set quotients' provides a well-known lower bound 4)(G) for the chromatic index of a multigraph G. Plantholt proved that if G is a multigraph of order at most 8, its chromatic index equals qS(G) and that if G is a multigraph of order 10, the chromatic index of G cannot exceed qS(G) + 1. We identify those multigraphs G of order 9 and 10 whose chromat...
متن کاملIrregular embeddings of multigraphs with fixed chromatic number
Let G be a c-chromatic multigraph (c >t 2) with maximum edge multiplicity s. In this note we show that G has an embedding as an induced subgraph, into some degree irregular c-chromatic multigraph having the same maximum edge multiplicity.
