A k-frugal colouring of a graph G is a proper colouring of the vertices of G such that no colour appears more than k times in the neighbourhood of a vertex. This type of colouring...
We show that a random 4-regular graph asymptotically almost surely (a.a.s.) has chromatic number 3. The proof uses an efficient algorithm which a.a.s. 3colours a random 4-regular ...
We study vertex-colorings of plane graphs that do not contain a rainbow face, i.e., a face with vertices of mutually distinct colors. If G is a 3-connected plane graph with n vert...
The problem of computing the chromatic number of a P5-free graph (a graph which contains no path on 5 vertices as an induced subgraph) is known to be NP-hard. However, we show tha...
It is proven that for every fixed h, a and b, a graph with n vertices and minimum degree at least h-1 h n, which contains no copy of Kb (the complete graph with b vertices), conta...
