Confirming a conjecture of Gyarfas, we prove that, for all natural numbers k and r, the vertices of every r-edge-colored complete k-uniform hypergraph can be partitioned into a bounded number (independent of the size of ...

© 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. We show that any complete k-partite graph G on n vertices, with k≥3, whose edges are two-coloured, can be covered with two vertex-disjoint monochromatic paths of distinct colours, given that ...

A set of vertices X of a graph G is convex if no shortest path between two vertices in X contains a vertex outside X. We prove that for fixed p >= 1, all partitions of the vertex set of a bipartite graph into p convex sets ...

Let G be a graph with maximum degree d ≥ 3 and ω(G) ≤ d, where ω(G) is the clique number of the graph G. Let p1 and p2 be two positive integers such that d = p1 + p2. In this work, we prove that G has a vertex ...

An adjacent vertex distinguishing total coloring is a coloring on the vertices and edges of a graph such that adjacent edges and its common vertex have distinguishing colors, and for every two adjacent vertices their ...

Given a clustered graph (G,V), that is, a graph G=(V,E) together with a partition V of its vertex set, the selective coloring problem consists in choosing one vertex per cluster such that the chromatic number of the subgraph ...
