A well-known Tutte's theorem claims that every 3-connected planar graph has a convex embedding into the plane. Tutte's arguments also show that, moreover, for every nonseparating cycle C of a 3-connected graph G, there exists a convex embedding of G such that C is a boundary of the outer face in thi

โฆ Synopsis
The linear arboricity la(G) of a graph G is the minimum number of linear forests that partition the edges of G. Akiyama, Exoo, and Harary conjectured
for any simple graph G with maximum degree โ. The conjecture has been proved to be true for graphs having โ =

Let G be a planar graph. The vertex face total chromatic number ,y13(G) of G is the least number of colors assigned to V(G) U F(G) such that no adjacent or incident elements receive the same color. The main results of this paper are as follows: (1) We give the vertex face total chromatic number for
The star-chromatic number of a graph, a parameter introduced by Vince, is a natural generalization of the chromatic number of a graph. Here we construct planar graphs with star-chromatic number r, where r is any rational number between 2 and 3, partially answering a question of Vince.
It is known that the class of line graphs of linear 3-uniform hypergraphs cannot be characterized by a finite list of forbidden induced subgraphs (R. N.
Given a graph G, a total k-coloring of G is a simultaneous coloring of the vertices and edges of G with at most k colors. If โ(G) is the maximum degree of G, then no graph has a total โ-coloring, but Vizing conjectured that every graph has a total (โ + 2)-coloring. This Total Coloring Conjecture rem
