✦ Synopsis


We extend a result of Tarsi and show that the chromatic polynomial and flow polynomial evaluated at 1+k are up to sign the same modulo k 2 for any integer k such that |k| \ 2.

## Abstract A __covering__ is a graph map Ο•: __G__ β†’ __H__ that is an isomorphism when restricted to the star of any vertex of __G__. If __H__ is connected then |Ο•^βˆ’1^(__v__)| is constant. This constant is called the __fold number__. In this paper we prove that if __G__ is a planar graph that cover

It is shown that, for any k, there exist infinitely many positive integers n such that in the prime power factorization of n!, all first k primes appear to even exponents. This answers a question of Erdo s and Graham (``Old and New Problems and Results in Combinatorial Number Theory,'' L'Enseignemen

A colouring of the vertices of a hypergraph G is called strong if, for every edge A, the colours of all vertices in A are distinct. It corresponds to a colouring of the generated graph (G) obtained from G by replacing every edge by a clique. We estimate the minimum number of edges possible in a k-cr

In this paper, we shall show that any two quadrangulations on any closed surface can be transformed into each other by diagonal slides and diagonal rotations if they have the same and sufficiently large number of vertices and if the homological properties of both quadrangulations coincide.
