## 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 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 the degree of the vertex (x). In this paper we investigate some properties of interval colorings and their variations. It is proved, in particular, that if a simple graph (G=(V, E)) without triangles has an interval (t)-coloring, then (t \leqslant|V|-1). (ΰΈ΄) 1994 Academic Press. Inc.

## 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
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
## 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
We prove the conjecture of Burris and Schelp: a coloring of the edges of a graph of order n such that a vertex is not incident with two edges of the same color and any two vertices are incident with different sets of colors is possible using at most n+1 colors. 1999 Academic Press ## 1. Introducti
