The adaptable chromatic number of a graph G is the smallest integer k such that for any edge k-colouring of G there exists a vertex kcolouring of G in which the same colour never ...
Gerards and Seymour (see [T.R. Jensen, B. Toft, Graph Coloring Problems, Wiley-Interscience, 1995], page 115) conjectured that if a graph has no odd complete minor of order p, the...
For graphs G and H, let G H denote their Cartesian sum. This paper investigates the chromatic number and the circular chromatic number for GH. It is proved that (G H) max{ c(G)...
This paper presents algorithms to find vertex-critical and edgecritical subgraphs in a given graph G, and demonstrates how these critical subgraphs can be used to determine the ch...

A labeling of a graph G is distinguishing if it is only preserved by the trivial automorphism of G. The distinguishing chromatic number of G is the smallest integer k such that G ...
Map vertices of a graph to (not necessarily distinct) points of the plane so that two adjacent vertices are mapped at least a unit distance apart. The plane-width of a graph is th...
We obtain improved upper bounds and new lower bounds on the chromatic number as a linear function of the clique number, for the intersection graphs (and their complements) of fini...
We give nontrivial bounds for the inductiveness or degeneracy of power graphs Gk of a planar graph G. This implies bounds for the chromatic number as well, since the inductiveness ...
