The main result of this article is a classification of distance-regular Cayley graphs on dihedral groups. There exist four obvious families of such graphs, which are called trivial. These are: complete graphs, complete bipartite graphs, complete bipartite graphs with the edges of a 1-factor removed, and cycles. It is proved that every nontrivial distance-regular Cayley graph on a dihedral group...

We continue the study of the following general problem on vertex col-orings of graphs. Suppose that some vertices of a graph G are assigned to some colors. Can this \precoloring" be extended to a proper coloring of G with at most k colors (for some given k)? Here we investigate the complexity status of precoloring extendibility on some graph classes which are related to bipartite graphs, giving...

‎For a set of non-negative integers~$L$‎, ‎the $L$-intersection number of a graph is the smallest number~$l$ for which there is an assignment of subsets $A_v subseteq {1,dots‎, ‎l}$ to vertices $v$‎, ‎such that every two vertices $u,v$ are adjacent if and only if $|A_u cap A_v|in L$‎. ‎The bipartite $L$-intersection number is defined similarly when the conditions are considered only for the ver...

The injective chromatic number χi(G) [5] of a graph G is the minimum number of colors needed to color the vertices of G such that two vertices with a common neighbor are assigned distinct colors. In this paper we define injective chromatic sum and injective strength of a graph and obtain the injective chromatic sum of complete graph, paths, cycles, wheel graph and complete bipartite graph. We a...

Given a graph G = (V,E), an even kernel is a nonempty independent subset V ′ ⊆ V , such that every vertex of G is adjacent to an even number (possibly 0) of vertices in V ′. It is proved that the question of whether a graph has an even kernel is NP-complete. The motivation stems from combinatorial game theory. It is known that this question is polynomial if G is bipartite. We also prove that th...
