چکیده

We study H(p, q)-colorings of graphs, for H a fixed simple graph and p, q natural numbers, a generalization of various other vertex partitioning concepts such as H-covering. An H-cover of a graph G is a local isomorphism between G and H , and the complexity of deciding if an input graph G has an H-cover is still open for many graphs H . In this paper we show that the complexity of H(2p, q)-COLORING is directly related to these open graph covering problems, and answer some of them by resolving the complexity of H(p, q)-COLORING for all acyclic graphs H and all values of p and q.

On subgroups of topologized fundamental groups and generalized coverings

‎In this paper‎, ‎we are interested in studying subgroups of topologized fundamental groups and their influences on generalized covering maps‎. ‎More precisely‎, ‎we find some relationships between generalized covering subgroups and the other famous subgroups of the fundamental group equipped with the compact-open topology and the whisker topology‎. ‎Moreover‎, ‎we present some conditions unde...

On the complexity of $\mathbb H$-coloring for special oriented trees

For a fixed digraph H, the H-coloring problem is the problem of deciding whether a given input digraph G admits a homomorphism to H. The CSP dichotomy conjecture of Feder and Vardi is equivalent to proving that, for any H, the H-coloring problem is in in P or NP-complete. We confirm this dichotomy for a certain class of oriented trees, which we call special trees (generalizing earlier results o...

The starlikeness, convexity, covering theorem and extreme points of p-harmonic mappings

The main aim of this paper is to introduce three classes $H^0_{p,q}$, $H^1_{p,q}$ and $TH^*_p$ of $p$-harmonic mappings and discuss the properties of mappings in these classes. First, we discuss the starlikeness and convexity of mappings in $H^0_{p,q}$ and $H^1_{p,q}$. Then establish the covering theorem for mappings in $H^1_{p,q}$. Finally, we determine the extreme points of the class $TH^*_{p}$.

B-coloring of Cartesian Product of Trees

A b-coloring of a graph G with k colors is a proper coloring of G using k colors in which each color class contains a color dominating vertex, that is, a vertex which has a neighbor in each of the other color classes. The largest positive integer k for which G has a b-coloring using k colors is the b-chromatic number b(G) of G. The b-spectrum Sb(G) of a graph G is the set of positive integers k...
