## Abstract The notion of a split coloring of a complete graph was introduced by Erdős and Gyárfás [7] as a generalization of split graphs. In this work, we offer an alternate interpretation by comparing such a coloring to the classical Ramsey coloring problem via a two‐round game played against an
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
In this article, we introduce the new notion of acyclic improper colorings of graphs. An improper coloring of a graph is a vertex-coloring in which adjacent vertices are allowed to have the same color, but each color class V i satisfies some condition depending on i. Such a coloring is acyclic if th
A 2-assignment on a graph G (V,E) is a collection of pairs Lv of allowed colors speci®ed for all vertices v PV. The graph G (with at least one edge) is said to have oriented choice number 2 if it admits an orientation which satis®es the following property: For every 2-assignment there exists a choic
## Abstract A proper coloring of the edges of a graph __G__ is called __acyclic__ if there is no 2‐colored cycle in __G__. The __acyclic edge chromatic number__ of __G__, denoted by __a′__(__G__), is the least number of colors in an acyclic edge coloring of __G__. For certain graphs __G__, __a′__(_
