An identifying code is a subset of vertices of a graph with the property that each vertex is uniquely determined (identified) by its nonempty neighbourhood within the identifying code. When only vertices out of the code are asked to be identified, we get the related concept of a locating-dominating set. These notions are closely related to a number of similar and well-studied concepts such as t...

The equitable tree-coloring can formulate a structure decomposition problem on the communication network with some security considerations. Namely, an tree-k-coloring of graph is vertex coloring using k distinct colors such that every color class induces forest and sizes any two classes differ by at most one. In this paper, we show theoretical results graphs proving d-degenerate maximum degree ...

For example is a chromatic number with the smallest integer so that graph has true vertex coloring k color. Chromatic still an interesting study which being studied for its development through coloring. Graph special case of labeling. Labeling here means, giving color to points at certain limit no two vertices have same This aims calculate in several classes graphs including , Based on results ...

Motivated by the definition of linear coloring on simplicial complexes, recently introduced in the context of algebraic topology, and the framework through which it was studied, we introduce the colinear coloring on graphs. We provide an upper bound for the chromatic number χ(G), for any graph G, and show that G can be colinearly colored in polynomial time by proposing a simple algorithm. The c...

A dominating set S of a graph is a metric-locating-dominating set if each vertex of the graph is uniquely distinguished by its distances from the elements of S, and the minimum cardinality of such a set is called the metric-locationdomination number. In this paper, we undertake a study that, in general graphs and specific families, relates metric-locating-dominating sets to other special sets: ...

The total chromatic number, χ″(G) is the minimum number of colors which need to be assigned obtain a coloring graph G. Total Coloring Conjecture (TCC) made independently by Behzad and Vizing that for any graph, χ″(G)≤Δ(G)+2, where Δ(G) represents maximum degree In this paper we obtained some classes four regular circulant graphs.

We study routing and path coloring problems in all-optical networks as non-cooperative games. We especially focus on oblivious payment functions, that is, functions that charge a player according to her own strategy only. We first strengthen a known relation between such games and online routing and path coloring. In particular, we show that the price of anarchy of such games is lower-bounded b...

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...

We characterize the complexity of a number of basic optimization problems for unit disk graphs speciied hierarchically as in BOW83, LW87a, Le88, LW92]. Both PSPACE-hardness results and polynomial time approximations are presented for most of the problems considered. These problems include minimum vertex coloring, maximum independent set, minimum clique cover, minimum dominating set and minimum ...
