A graph is highly irregular if it is connected and the neighbors of each vertex have distinct degrees. In this paper, we study existence and extremal problems for highly irregular graphs with a given maximum degree and focus our attention on highly irregular graphs that are m-chromatic for m 3 2.

✦ Synopsis
A connected graph is highly irregular if each of its vertices is adjacent only to vertices with distinct degrees. In this paper w e investigate several problems concerning the existence and enumeration of highly irregular graphs as well as their independence numbers, with particular focus on the corresponding problems for highly irregular trees.

A simple connected graph is highly irregular if each of its vertices is adjacent only to vertices with distinct degrees. In this paper we find: (1) the greatest number of edges of a highly irregular graph with n vertices, where n is an odd integer (for n even this number is given in [1]), (2) the sm
A connected digraph D is highly irregular if the vertices of out-neighborhood of each vertex UE V(D) have different out-degrees. In this paper, we investigate some problems concerning the existence of highly irregular digraphs with special properties, with particular focus on highly irregular direct
## Abstract An assignment of positive integer weights to the edges of a simple graph __G__ is called irregular, if the weighted degrees of the vertices are all different. The irregularity strength, __s__(__G__), is the maximal weight, minimized over all irregular assignments. In this study, we show
