A recursion exists among the coefficients of the color polynomials of some of the families of graphs considered in recent work of Balasubramanian and Ramaraj.' Such families of graphs have been called Fibonacci graphs. Application to king patterns of lattices is given. The method described here appl

## dedicated to professor w. t. tutte on the occasion of his eightieth birtday It is known that the chromatic number of a graph G=(V, E) with V= [1, 2, ..., n] exceeds k iff the graph polynomial f G => ij # E, i<j (x i &x j ) lies in certain ideals. We describe a short proof of this result, using
We present algorithms for minimum G -coloring k-colorable graphs drawn from random and semi-random models. In both models, an adversary initially splits Ε½ . the vertices into k color classes V , . . . , V of sizes β n each. In the first model,

## Abstract We derive the expressions of the ordinary, the vertexβweighted and the doubly vertexβweighted Wiener polynomials of a type of thorn graph, for which the number of pendant edges attached to any vertex of the underlying parent graph is a linear function of its degree. We also define varia
The tension polynomial F G (k) of a graph G, evaluating the number of nowhere-zero Z k -tensions in G, is the nontrivial divisor of the chromatic polynomial G (k) of G, in that G (k) ΒΌ k c(G) F G (k), where c(G) denotes the number of components of G. We introduce the integral tension polynomial I G
