In this paper, by using the Discharging Method, we show that any graph with maximum degree A 1>8 that is embeddable in a surface 2~ of characteristic X(Z)>~0 is class one and any graph with maximum degree A>~9 that is embeddable in a surface Z of characteristic X(Z)=-1 is class one. For surfaces of

Bounds are given on the number of colors required to color the edges of a graph (multigraph) such that each color appears at each vertex u at most m(u) times. The known results and proofs generalize in natural ways. Certain new edge-coloring problems, which have no counterparts when m(u) = 1 for all
A graph is (rn, k)-colorable if its vertices can be colored with rn colors in such a way that each vertex is adjacent to at most k vertices of the same color as itself. In a recent paper Cowen. Cowen, and Woodall proved that, for each compact surface S, there exists an integer k = k(S) such that eve
