چکیده

A class of graphs called generalized ladder graphs is defined. A sufficient condition for pairs of these graphs to be chromatically equivalent is proven. In addition a formula for the chromatic polynomial of a graph of this type is proven. Finally, the chromatic polynomials of special cases of these graphs are explicitly computed.

Chromatic equivalence classes of certain generalized polygon trees, III

Let P(G) denote the chromatic polynomial of a graph G. Two graphs G and H are chromatically equivalent, if P(G) = P(H). A set of graphs S is called a chromatic equivalence class if for any graph H that is chromatically equivalent with a graph G in S, then H ∈S. Peng et al. (Discrete Math. 172 (1997) 103–114), studied the chromatic equivalence classes of certain generalized polygon trees. In thi...

On Generalized Coprime Graphs

Paul Erdos defined the concept of coprime graph and studied about cycles in coprime graphs. In this paper this concept is generalized and a new graph called Generalized coprime graph is introduced. Having observed certain basic properties of the new graph it is proved that the chromatic number and the clique number of some generalized coprime graphs are equal.

Chromaticity of Turan Graphs with At Most Three Edges Deleted

Let $P(G,lambda)$ be the chromatic polynomial of a graph $G$. A graph $G$ ischromatically unique if for any graph $H$, $P(H, lambda) = P(G,lambda)$ implies $H$ is isomorphic to $G$. In this paper, we determine the chromaticity of all Tur'{a}n graphs with at most three edges deleted. As a by product, we found many families of chromatically unique graphs and chromatic equivalence classes of graph...

Skew Chromatic Index of Circular Ladder Graphs

Abstract. A skew edge coloring of a graph G is defined to be a set of two edge colorings such that no two edges are assigned the same unordered pair of colors. The skew chromatic index s(G) is the minimum number of colors required for a skew edge coloring of G. In this paper, an algorithm is determined for skew edge coloring of circular ladder graphs. Alsothe skew chromatic index of circular la...

Chromatic Harmonic Indices and Chromatic Harmonic Polynomials of Certain Graphs

In the main this paper introduces the concept of chromatic harmonic polynomials denoted, $H^chi(G,x)$ and chromatic harmonic indices denoted, $H^chi(G)$ of a graph $G$. The new concept is then applied to finding explicit formula for the minimum (maximum) chromatic harmonic polynomials and the minimum (maximum) chromatic harmonic index of certain graphs. It is also applied to split graphs and ce...
