Suppose G is an nvertex and medge simple graph with edge set E(G). An integervalued function f: E(G) → Z is called a flow. Tutte was introduced the flow polynomial F(G, λ) as a polynomial in an indeterminate λ with integer coefficients by F(G,λ) In this paper the Flow polynomial of some dendrimers are computed.

The Frequency Assignment Problem (FAP) in radio networks is the problem of assigning frequencies to transmitters exploiting frequency reuse while keeping signal interference to acceptable levels. The FAP is usually modelled by variations of the graph coloring problem. A Radiocoloring (RC) of a graph G(V,E) is an assignment function Λ : V → IN such that |Λ(u) − Λ(v)| ≥ 2, when u, v are neighbors...

9 An acyclic coloring is a proper coloring with the additional property that the union of 10 any two color classes induces a forest. We show that every graph with maximum degree at 11 most 5 has an acyclic 7-coloring. We also show that every graph with maximum degree at 12 most r has an acyclic (1 + b (r+1) 2 4 c)-coloring. 13

We study weighted bipartite edge coloring problem, which is a generalization of two classical problems: bin packing and edge coloring. This problem has been inspired from the study of Clos networks in multirate switching environment in communication networks. In weighted bipartite edge coloring problem, we are given an edge-weighted bipartite multigraph G = (V,E) with weights w : E → [0, 1]. Th...

A (proper) k-coloring of agraph G is a partition = {V1; V2; : : : ; Vk} of V (G) into k independent sets, called color classes. In a k-coloring , a vertex v∈Vi is called a Grundy vertex if v is adjacent to at least one vertex in color class Vj , for every j, j¡ i. A k-coloring is called a Grundy coloring if every vertex is a Grundy vertex. A k-coloring is called a partial Grundy coloring if eve...

In this paper, we show that for every graph of maximum average degree bounded away from d, any (d + 1)-coloring can be transformed into any other one within a polynomial number of vertex recolorings so that, at each step, the current coloring is proper. In particular, it implies that we can transform any 8-coloring of a planar graph into any other 8-coloring with a polynomial number of recolori...

We describe a graph coloring problem associated with the determination of mathematical derivatives. The coloring instances are obtained as intersection graphs of row partitioned sparse derivative matrices. The size of the graph is dependent on the partition and can be varied between the number of columns and the number of nonzero entries. If solved exactly our proposal will yield a significant ...
