It is shown that K 4(i,j,l,k,m,n) is chromatically unique if three numbers among i,j,l,k,m,n have the same value and the other three numbers are not equal but larger than that value.

Let P(G,λ) be the chromatic polynomial of a simple graph G. A graph G is chromatically unique if for any simple graph H, P(H,λ) = P(G,λ) implies that H is isomorphic to G. Many sufficient conditions guarantee...Let P(G,λ) be the chromatic polynomial of a simple graph G. A graph G is chromatically unique if for any simple graph H, P(H,λ) = P(G,λ) implies that H is isomorphic to G. Many sufficient conditions guaranteeing that some certain complete tripartite graphs are chromatically unique were obtained by many scholars. Especially, in 2003, Zou Hui-wen showed that if n 〉 1/3m2 + 3/1k2 + 3/1mk+ 1/3m-1/3k+ 3/2√m2 + k2 + mk, where n,k and m are non-negative integers, then the complete tripartite graph K(n - m,n,n + k) is chromatically unique (or simply χ–unique). In this paper, we prove that for any non-negative integers n,m and k, where m ≥ 2 and k ≥ 0, if n ≥ 3/1m2 + 3/1k2 + 3/1mk + 3/1m - 3/1k + 43, then the complete tripartite graph K(n - m,n,n + k) is χ–unique, which is an improvement on Zou Hui-wen’s result in the case m ≥ 2 and k ≥ 0. Furthermore, we present a related conjecture.展开更多

We write [G] = {HIH - G}. If [G] = {G}, then G is said to be chromatically unique. In this paper, we first characterize certain complete 6-partite graphs with 6rid+1 vertices according to the number of 7-independent partitions of G. Using these results, we investigate the chromaticity of G with certain star or matching deleted. As a by-product, many new families of chromatically unique complete 6-partite graphs with certain star or matching deleted are obtained.展开更多
