Let G be a simple graph with adjacency matrix A, and p(x) a polynomial with rational coefficients. If p(A) is the adjacency matrix of a graph, we denote that graph by p(G). We consider the question: Given a graph 6, which polynomials p(r) give rise to a graph p(G) and what are those graphs? We give
## dedicated to professor w. t. tutte on the occasion of his eightieth birtday It is known that the chromatic number of a graph G=(V, E) with V= [1, 2, ..., n] exceeds k iff the graph polynomial f G => ij # E, i<j (x i &x j ) lies in certain ideals. We describe a short proof of this result, using
