Circular Chromatic Numbers of Some Distance Graphs

The circular chromatic number of a graph is an important parameter of a graph. The distance graph G(Z,D) , with a distance set D , is the infinite graph with vertex set Z={0,±1,±2,...} in which two vertices x and y are adjacent iff y-x∈D . This paper determines the circular chromatic numbers of two classes of distance graphs G(Z,D m,k,k+1 ) and G(Z,D m,k,k+1,k+2 ).

EDGE-FACE CHROMATIC NUMBER OF 2-CONNECTED PLANE GRAPHS WITH HIGH MAXIMUM DEGREE

The edge-face chromatic number Xef （G） of a plane graph G is the least number of colors assigned to the edges and faces such that every adjacent or incident pair of them receives different colors. In this article, the authors prove that every 2-connected plane graph G with △（G）≥｜G｜ - 2≥9 has Xef（G） = △（G）.

Some results on circular chromatic number of a graph

For two integers k and d with （k, d） = 1 and k≥2d, let G^dk be the graph with vertex set {0,1,…k - 1 } in which ij is an edge if and only if d≤｜ i -j I｜≤k - d. The circular chromatic number χc（G） of a graph G is the minimum of k/d for which G admits a homomorphism to G^dk. The relationship between χc（ G- v） and χc （G）is investigated. In particular, the circular chromatic number of G^dk - v for any vertex v is determined. Some graphs withx χc（G - v） =χc（G） - 1 for any vertex v and with certain properties are presented. Some lower bounds for the circular chromatic number of a graph are studied, and a necessary and sufficient condition under which the circular chromatic number of a graph attains the lower bound χ- 1 ＋ 1/α is proved, where χ is the chromatic number of G and a is its independence number.

The Circular Chromatic Number of Some Special Graphs

The circular chromatic number of a graph is a natural generalization of the chromatic number. Circular chromatic number contains more information about the structure of a graph than chromatic number does. In this paper we obtain the circular chromatic numbers of special graphs such as C t k and C t k-v, and give a simple proof of the circular chromatic number of H m,n .

Game Chromatic Number of Some Regular Graphs

Let G be a graph and k be a positive integer. We consider a game with two players Alice and Bob who alternate in coloring the vertices of G with a set of k colors. In every turn, one vertex will be chosen by one player. Alice’s goal is to color all vertices with the k colors, while Bob’s goal is to prevent her. The game chromatic number denoted by?χg(G), is the smallest k such that Alice has a winning strategy with k colors. In this paper, we determine the game chromatic number?χg of circulant graphs?Cn(1,2), , and generalized Petersen graphs GP(n,2), GP(n,3).

Chromatic Number of Graphs with Special Distance Sets-V

An integer distance graph is a graph G(Z,D) with the set of integers as vertex set and an edge joining two vertices u and?v if and only if ∣u - v∣D where D is a subset of the positive integers. It is known that x(G(Z,D) )=4 where P is a set of Prime numbers. So we can allocate the subsets D of P to four classes, accordingly as is 1 or 2 or 3 or 4. In this paper we have considered the open problem of characterizing class three and class four sets when the distance set D is not only a subset of primes P but also a special class of primes like Additive primes, Deletable primes, Wedderburn-Etherington Number primes, Euclid-Mullin sequence primes, Motzkin primes, Catalan primes, Schroder primes, Non-generous primes, Pell primes, Primeval primes, Primes of Binary Quadratic Form, Smarandache-Wellin primes, and Highly Cototient number primes. We also have indicated the membership of a number of special classes of prime numbers in class 2 category.

In this paper we prove that the join of a complete bipartite graph Km,n and a cycle Cn is of Type 1.

Geodetic Number and Geo-Chromatic Number of 2-Cartesian Product of Some Graphs

A set S ⊆ V (G) is called a geodetic set if every vertex of G lies on a shortest u-v path for some u, v ∈ S, the minimum cardinality among all geodetic sets is called geodetic number and is denoted by . A set C ⊆ V (G) is called a chromatic set if C contains all vertices of different colors in G, the minimum cardinality among all chromatic sets is called the chromatic number and is denoted by . A geo-chromatic set Sc ⊆ V (G) is both a geodetic set and a chromatic set. The geo-chromatic number of G is the minimum cardinality among all geo-chromatic sets of G. In this paper, we determine the geodetic number and the geo-chromatic number of 2-cartesian product of some standard graphs like complete graphs, cycles and paths.

Relationship Between Gene-Phenotype and Clinical Manifestations of Chromosomal Copy Number Variations Indicated by Non-Invasive Prenatal Testing

Objective:To analyze the clinical value of non-invasive prenatal testing(NIPT)in detecting chromosomal copy number variations(CNVs)and to explore the relationship between gene expression and clinical manifestations of chromosomal copy number variations.Methods:3551 naturally conceived singleton pregnant women who underwent NIPT were included in this study.The NIPT revealed abnormalities other than sex chromosome abnormalities and trisomy 13,18,and 21.Pregnant women with chromosome copy number variations underwent genetic counseling and prenatal ultrasound examination.Interventional prenatal diagnosis and chromosome microarray analysis(CMA)were performed.The clinical phenotypes and pregnancy outcomes of different prenatal diagnoses were analyzed.Additionally,a follow-up was conducted by telephone to track fetal development after birth,at six months,and one year post-birth.Results:A total of 53 cases among 3551 cases showed chromosomal copy number variation.Interventional prenatal diagnosis was performed in 36 cases:27 cases were negative and 8 were consistent with the NIPT test results.This indicates that NIPT’s positive predictive value(PPV)in CNVs is 22.22%.Conclusion:NIPT has certain clinical significance in screening chromosome copy number variations and is expected to become a routine screening for chromosomal microdeletions and microduplications.However,further interventional prenatal diagnosis is still needed to identify fetal CNVs.

THE TOTAL CHROMATIC NUMBER OF PSEUDO-OUTERPLANAR GRAPHS

A planar graph G is called a i pseudo outerplanar graph if there is a subset V 0V(G),|V 0|=i, such that G-V 0 is an outerplanar graph. In particular, when G-V 0 is a forest, G is called a i pseudo tree. In this paper, the following results are proved: (i) The conjecture on the total coloring is true for all 1 pseudo outerplanar graphs; (ii) χ t(G)=Δ(G)+1 for any 1 pseudo outerplanar graph G with Δ(G)6 and for any 1 pseudo tree G with Δ(G)3, where χ t(G) is the total chromatic number of a graph G .
