For a finite graph \(G\) with \(d\) vertices we define a homogeneous symmetric function \(X_{4 ;}\) of degree \(d\) in the variables \(x_{1}, x_{2}, \ldots\). If we set \(x_{1}=\cdots=x_{n}=1\) and all other \(x_{t}=0\), then we obtain \(Z_{1}(n)\), the chromatic polynomial of (; evaluated at \(n\).
