Let G be a graph with n vertices. The mean color number of G, denoted by (G), is the average number of colors used in all n-colorings of G. This paper proves that (G) ! (Q), where Q is any 2-tree with n vertices and G is any graph whose vertex set has an ordering x 1 ,x 2 , . . . ,x n such that x i
A three-valued function f deÿned on the vertex set of a graph G = (V; E), f : V → {-1; 0; 1} is a minus dominating function if the sum of its function values over any closed neighborhood is at least one. That is, for every consists of v and all vertices adjacent to v. The weight of a minus function
The multicolor Ramsey number r k (C 4 ) is the smallest integer n for which any k-coloring of the edges of the complete graph K n must produce a monochromatic 4-cycle. It was proved earlier that r k (C 4 ) k 2 &k+2 for k&1 being a prime power. In this note we establish r k (C 4 ) k 2 +2 for k being
There is a family (H k ) of graphs such that H k has order (1+o(1))(-2Âe) k 2 kÂ2 but has no clique or stable set of order k. This result of Spencer provides the best known lower bound for the diagonal Ramsey numbers R(k, k). Here we see that the graphs H k can be taken to be regular, self-complemen
