Erratum: Identification and corrections of the existing mistakes in the paper On the total graph of Mycielski graphs, central graphs and their covering numbers, Discuss. Math. Graph Theory 33 (2013) 361–371.

This paper gives a sufficient condition for a graph G to have its circular chromatic number equal its chromatic number. By using this result, we prove that for any integer t ≥ 1, there exists an integer n such that for all k ≥ n χc(M (Kk)) = χ(M (Kk)).

The local chromatic number of a graph was introduced in [12]. It is in between the chromatic and fractional chromatic numbers. This motivates the study of the local chromatic number of graphs for which these quantities are far apart. Such graphs include Kneser graphs, their vertex color-critical subgraphs, the Schrijver (or stable Kneser) graphs; Mycielski graphs, and their generalizations; and...

For any $k in mathbb{N}$, the $k$-subdivision of graph $G$ is a simple graph $G^{frac{1}{k}}$, which is constructed by replacing each edge of $G$ with a path of length $k$. In [Moharram N. Iradmusa, On colorings of graph fractional powers, Discrete Math., (310) 2010, No. 10-11, 1551-1556] the $m$th power of the $n$-subdivision of $G$ has been introduced as a fractional power of $G$, denoted by ...

The problem of monitoring an electric power system by placing as few phase measurement units (PMUs) in the system as possible is closely related to the well-known domination problem in graphs. The power domination number γp(G) is the minimum cardinality of a power dominating set of G. In this paper, we investigate the power domination problem in Mycielskian and generalized Mycielskian of graphs...

In this paper, we determine the degree distance of the complement of arbitrary Mycielskian graphs. It is well known that almost all graphs have diameter two. We determine this graphical invariant for the Mycielskian of graphs with diameter two.

For a graph G, let M(G) denote the Mycielski graph of G. The t-th iterated Mycielski graph of G, M(G), is defined recursively by M0(G) = G and M(G)= M(Mt−1(G)) for t ≥ 1. Let χc(G) denote the circular chromatic number of G. We prove two main results: 1) Assume G has a universal vertex x, then χc(M(G)) = χ(M(G)) if χc(G − x) > χ(G − x) − 1/2 and G is not a star, otherwise χc(M(G)) = χ(M(G)) − 1/...

Let H be a bipartite graph and let Gn be the Mycielski graph with χ(G) = n, n ≥ 4. Then the chromatic number of the strong product of Gn by H is at most 2n− 2. We use this result to show that there exist strong products of graphs in which a projection of a retract onto a factor is not a retract of the factor. We also show that in the Cartesian product of graphs G and H, any triangles of G trans...

Let G = (V,E) be a graph. A set S ⊂ V (G) is a hop dominating set of G if for every v ∈ V − S, there exists u ∈ S such that d(u, v) = 2. The minimum cardinality of a hop dominating set of G is called a hop domination number of G and is denoted by γh(G). In this paper we characterize the family of trees and unicyclic graphs for which γh(G) = γt(G) and γh(G) = γc(G) where γt(G) and γc(G) are the ...
