On the (Δ + 2)-Total-Colorability of Planar Graphs with 7-Cycles Containing at Most Two Chords

The Total Coloring Conjecture (TCC) proposes that every simple graph G is (Δ + 2)-totally-colorable, where Δ is the maximum degree of G. For planar graph, TCC is open only in case Δ = 6. In this paper, we prove that TCC holds for planar graph with Δ = 6 and every 7-cycle contains at most two chords.

The Edge Connectivities of Total P_(k)-graphs

The P_(k)-path graph P_(k)(G)corresponding to a graph G has for vertices the set of all paths of length k in G.Two vertices are joined by an edge if and only if the intersection of the corresponding paths forms a path of length k-1 in G,and their union forms either a cycle or a path of length k+1.Let Ek={(v,p),p E V(P_(k)(G)),v is an end vertex of p in G},we define total P_(k)-graphs T_(k)(G)as Yk(G)=(V(G)UV(P_(k)(G)),E(G)U E(PI(G))U Ek).In this note,we introduce total P,-graphs Th(G)and study their edge connectivity,as the generaliza-tion of total graphs.

ON THE TOTAL COLORING OF GRAPH G ∨H

The total chromatic number XT(G) of graph G is the least number of colorsassigned to VE(G) such that no adjacent or incident elements receive the same color.Gived graphs G1,G2, the join of G1 and G2, denoted by G1∨G2, is a graph G, V(G) =V(GI)∪V(G2) and E(G) = E(G1)∪E(G2) ∪{uv | u∈(G1), v ∈ V(G2)}. In this paper, it's proved that if v(G) = v(H), both Gc and Hc contain perfect matching and one of the followings holds: (i)Δ(G) =Δ(H) and there exist edge e∈ E(G), e' E E(H)such that both G-e and H-e' are of Class l; (ii)Δ(G)<Δ(H) and there exixst an edge e ∈E(H) such that H-e is of Class 1, then, the total coloring conjecture is true for graph G ∨H.

Signed total domination in nearly regular graphs

A function f： V（ G）→{1,1} defined on the vertices of a graph G is a signed total dominating function （STDF） if the sum of its function values over any open neighborhood is at least one. An STDF f is minimal if there does not extst a STDF g： V（G）→{-1,1}, f≠g, for which g （ v ）≤f（ v ） for every v∈V（ G ）. The weight of a STDF is the sum of its function values over all vertices. The signed total domination number of G is the minimum weight of a STDF of G, while the upper signed domination number of G is the maximum weight of a minimal STDF of G, In this paper, we present sharp upper bounds on the upper signed total domination number of a nearly regular graph.

Vertex-distinguishing E-total Coloring of Complete Bipartite Graph K 7,n when7≤n≤95

Let G be a simple graph. A total coloring f of G is called an E-total coloring if no two adjacent vertices of G receive the same color, and no edge of G receives the same color as one of its endpoints. For an E-total coloring f of a graph G and any vertex x of G, let C（x） denote the set of colors of vertex x and of the edges incident with x, we call C（x） the color set of x. If C（u） ≠ C（v） for any two different vertices u and v of V （G）, then we say that f is a vertex-distinguishing E-total coloring of G or a VDET coloring of G for short. The minimum number of colors required for a VDET coloring of G is denoted by Хvt^e（G） and is called the VDE T chromatic number of G. The VDET coloring of complete bipartite graph K7,n （7 ≤ n ≤ 95） is discussed in this paper and the VDET chromatic number of K7,n （7 ≤ n ≤ 95） has been obtained.

A signed(res. signed total) Roman dominating function, SRDF(res.STRDF) for short, of a graph G =(V, E) is a function f : V → {-1, 1, 2} satisfying the conditions that(i)∑v∈N[v]f(v) ≥ 1(res.∑v∈N(v)f(v) ≥ 1) for any v ∈ V, where N [v] is the closed neighborhood and N(v) is the neighborhood of v, and(ii) every vertex v for which f(v) =-1 is adjacent to a vertex u for which f(u) = 2. The weight of a SRDF(res. STRDF) is the sum of its function values over all vertices.The signed(res. signed total) Roman domination number of G is the minimum weight among all signed(res. signed total) Roman dominating functions of G. In this paper,we compute the exact values of the signed(res. signed total) Roman domination numbers of complete bipartite graphs and wheels.

Vertex-distinguishing IE-total Colorings of Complete Bipartite Graphs K8,n

Let G be a simple graph. An IE-total coloring f of G is a coloring of the vertices and edges of G so that no two adjacent vertices receive the same color. For each vertex x of G, let C(x) be the set of colors of vertex x and edges incident to x under f. For an IE-total coloring f of G using k colors, if C(u) ≠ C(v) for any two different vertices u and v of G, then f is called a k-vertex-distinguishing IE-total-coloring of G or a k-VDIET coloring of G for short. The minimum number of colors required for a VDIET coloring of G is denoted by χ_(vt)^(ie) (G) and is called vertex-distinguishing IE-total chromatic number or the VDIET chromatic number of G for short. The VDIET colorings of complete bipartite graphs K_(8,n)are discussed in this paper. Particularly, the VDIET chromatic number of K_(8,n) are obtained.

Cyclically Interval Total Colorings of Cycles and Middle Graphs of Cycles

A total coloring of a graph G is a functionsuch that no adjacent vertices, edges, and no incident vertices and edges obtain the same color. A k-interval is a set of k consecutive integers. A cyclically interval total t-coloring of a graph G is a total coloring a of G with colors 1,2,...,t, such that at least one vertex or edge of G is colored by i,i=1,2,...,t, and for any, the set is a -interval, or is a -interval, where dG(x) is the degree of the vertex x in G. In this paper, we study the cyclically interval total colorings of cycles and middle graphs of cycles.

Adjacent Vertex Distinguishing I-total Coloring of Outerplanar Graphs

Let G be a simple graph with no isolated edge. An Ⅰ-total coloring of a graph G is a mapping φ : V(G) ∪ E(G) → {1, 2, · · ·, k} such that no adjacent vertices receive the same color and no adjacent edges receive the same color. An Ⅰ-total coloring of a graph G is said to be adjacent vertex distinguishing if for any pair of adjacent vertices u and v of G, we have C_φ(u) = C_φ(v), where C_φ(u) denotes the set of colors of u and its incident edges. The minimum number of colors required for an adjacent vertex distinguishing Ⅰ-total coloring of G is called the adjacent vertex distinguishing Ⅰ-total chromatic number, denoted by χ_at^i(G).In this paper, we characterize the adjacent vertex distinguishing Ⅰ-total chromatic number of outerplanar graphs.

The Total Irredundance Numbers on Graphs

This paper discusses the total irredundance relations between the graph G and its clone-contraction graph H, that is, let H be the clone-contraction graph of G and v1,v2,...,vk be all contraction vertices ofH. IfS is a maximal total irredundant set of H such that A = S ∩ {V1,V2,…,Vk} contains as few vertices as possible, then S＇= S-A is the maximal total irredundant set of G. Furthermore, we obtain the bound of the total irredundance A（G） number： irt ≤△（G）/2△（G）＋1 n, which n is the order of graph G, and △（G） is maximum degree in G.

Let G(V, E) be a simple connected graph and k be positive integers. A mapping f from V∪E to {1, 2, ··· , k} is called an adjacent vertex-distinguishing E-total coloring of G(abbreviated to k-AVDETC), if for uv ∈ E(G), we have f(u) ≠ f(v), f(u) ≠ f(uv), f(v) ≠ f(uv), C(u) ≠C(v), where C(u) = {f(u)}∪{f(uv)|uv ∈ E(G)}. The least number of k colors required for which G admits a k-coloring is called the adjacent vertex-distinguishing E-total chromatic number of G is denoted by x^e_(at) (G). In this paper, the adjacent vertexdistinguishing E-total colorings of some join graphs C_m∨G_n are obtained, where G_n is one of a star S_n , a fan F_n , a wheel W_n and a complete graph K_n . As a consequence, the adjacent vertex-distinguishing E-total chromatic numbers of C_m∨G_n are confirmed.

Minus total k-subdomination in graphs

Let G = (V,E) be a simple graph without isolated vertices. For positive integer k, a 3-valued function f : V → {-1,0,1} is said to be a minus total k-subdominating function (MTkSF) if sum from (u∈N(v)) to f(u)≥1 for at least k vertices v in G, where N(v) is the open neighborhood of v. The minus total k-subdomination number γkt(G) equals the minimum weight of an MTkSF on G. In this paper, the values on the minus total k-subdomination number of some special graphs are investigated. Several lower bounds on γkt of general graphs and trees are obtained.
