A note on total and list edge-colouring of graphs of tree-width 3
It is shown that Halin graphs are -edge-choosable and that graphs of
tree-width 3 are -edge-choosable and -total-colourable.Comment: arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with arXiv:1504.0212
Total weight choosability in Hypergraphs
A total weighting of the vertices and edges of a hypergraph is called
vertex-coloring if the total weights of the vertices yield a proper coloring of
the graph, i.e., every edge contains at least two vertices with different
weighted degrees. In this note we show that such a weighting is possible if
every vertex has two, and every edge has three weights to choose from,
extending a recent result on graphs to hypergraphs
A note on the adjacent vertex distinguishing total chromatic number of graphs
AbstractAn adjacent vertex distinguishing total coloring of a graph G is a proper total coloring of G such that any pair of adjacent vertices have different sets of colors. The minimum number of colors needed for such a total coloring of G is denoted by χa″(G). In this note, we show that χa″(G)≤2Δ for any graph G with maximum degree Δ≥3
Enumeration of graphs with a heavy-tailed degree sequence
In this paper, we asymptotically enumerate graphs with a given degree
sequence d=(d_1,...,d_n) satisfying restrictions designed to permit
heavy-tailed sequences in the sparse case (i.e. where the average degree is
rather small). Our general result requires upper bounds on functions of M_k=
\sum_{i=1}^n [d_i]_k for a few small integers k\ge 1. Note that M_1 is simply
the total degree of the graphs. As special cases, we asymptotically enumerate
graphs with (i) degree sequences satisfying M_2=o(M_1^{ 9/8}); (ii) degree
sequences following a power law with parameter gamma>5/2; (iii) power-law
degree sequences that mimic independent power-law "degrees" with parameter
gamma>1+\sqrt{3}\approx 2.732; (iv) degree sequences following a certain
"long-tailed" power law; (v) certain bi-valued sequences. A previous result on
sparse graphs by McKay and the second author applies to a wide range of degree
sequences but requires Delta =o(M_1^{1/3}), where Delta is the maximum degree.
Our new result applies in some cases when Delta is only barely o(M_1^ {3/5}).
Case (i) above generalises a result of Janson which requires M_2=O(M_1) (and
hence M_1=O(n) and Delta=O(n^{1/2})). Cases (ii) and (iii) provide the first
asymptotic enumeration results applicable to degree sequences of real-world
networks following a power law, for which it has been empirically observed that
2<gamma<3.Comment: 34 page
