چکیده

In an earlier paper, we proved (with Chudnovsky and Spirkl) that for all integers κ, ` ≥ 0, every graph with clique number at most κ and sufficiently large chromatic number has an odd hole of length at least `. Here we prove a strengthening, that for all integers κ, ` ≥ 0, every graph with clique number at most κ and sufficiently large chromatic number has a hole of every possible length modulo `.

Induced subgraphs of graphs with large chromatic number. IV. Consecutive holes

A hole in a graph is an induced subgraph which is a cycle of length at least four. We prove that for all ν > 0, every triangle-free graph with sufficiently large chromatic number contains holes of ν consecutive lengths.

The distinguishing chromatic number of bipartite graphs of girth at least six

The distinguishing number $D(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the least integer $d$ such that $G$ has a vertex labeling   with $d$ labels  that is preserved only by a trivial automorphism. The distinguishing chromatic number $chi_{D}(G)$ of $G$ is defined similarly, where, in addition, $f$ is assumed to be a proper labeling. We prove that if $G$ is a bipartite graph of girth at least six with the maximum ...

The locating-chromatic number for Halin graphs

Let G be a connected graph. Let f be a proper k -coloring of G and Π = (R_1, R_2, . . . , R_k) bean ordered partition of V (G) into color classes. For any vertex v of G, define the color code c_Π(v) of v with respect to Π to be a k -tuple (d(v, R_1), d(v, R_2), . . . , d(v, R_k)), where d(v, R_i) is the min{d(v, x)|x ∈ R_i}. If distinct vertices have distinct color codes, then we call f a locat...

Induced subgraphs of graphs with large chromatic number. VII. Gyárfás’ complementation conjecture

A class of graphs is χ-bounded if there is a function f such that χ(G) ≤ f(ω(G)) for every induced subgraph G of every graph in the class, where χ, ω denote the chromatic number and clique number of G respectively. In 1987, Gyárfás conjectured that for every c, if C is a class of graphs such that χ(G) ≤ ω(G) + c for every induced subgraph G of every graph in the class, then the class of complem...
