## Abstract A proper coloring of the edges of a graph __G__ is called __acyclic__ if there is no 2βcolored cycle in __G__. The __acyclic edge chromatic number__ of __G__, denoted by __aβ²__(__G__), is the least number of colors in an acyclic edge coloring of __G__. For certain graphs __G__, __aβ²__(_

β¦ Synopsis
An edge-coloring of a graph G is equitable if, for each v β V (G), the number of edges colored with any one color incident with v differs from the number of edges colored with any other color incident with v by at most one. A new sufficient condition for equitable edge-colorings of simple graphs is obtained. This result covers the previous results, which are due to Hilton and de Werra, verifies a conjecture made by Hilton recently, and substantially extends it to a more general class of graphs. α§ 2010 Wiley

## Abstract The notion of (circular) colorings of edgeβweighted graphs is introduced. This notion generalizes the notion of (circular) colorings of graphs, the channel assignment problem, and several other optimization problems. For instance, its restriction to colorings of weighted complete graphs
An edge-coloring of a simple graph \(G\) with colors \(1,2, \ldots, t\) is called an interval \(t\)-coloring [3] if at least one edge of \(G\) is colored by color \(i, i=1, \ldots, t\) and the edges incident with each vertex \(x\) are colored by \(d_{G}(x)\) consecutive colors, where \(d_{G}(x)\) is
## Abstract We investigate the conjecture that a graph is perfect if it admits a twoβedgeβcoloring such that two edges receive different colors if they are the nonincident edges of a __P__~4~ (chordless path with four vertices). Partial results on this conjecture are given in this paper. Β© 1995 Joh
## Abstract We show some consequences of results of Gallai concerning edge colorings of complete graphs that contain no tricolored triangles. We prove two conjectures of Bialostocki and Voxman about the existence of special monochromatic spanning trees in such colorings. We also determine the size
