Abstract

We determine the minimum number of edges in a regular connected graph on n vertices, containing a complete subgraph of order k ≀ n/2. This enables us to confirm and strengthen a conjecture of P. ErdΓΆs on the existence of regular graphs with prescribed chromatic number.

The odd girth of a graph \(G\) gives the length of a shortest odd cycle in \(G\). Let \(f(k, g)\) denote the smallest \(n\) such that there exists a \(k\)-regular graph of order \(n\) and odd girth \(g\). It is known that \(f(k, g) \geqslant k g / 2\) and that \(f(k, g)=k g / 2\) if \(k\) is even. T

## Abstract The __r__‐acyclic edge chromatic number of a graph is defined to be the minimum number of colors required to produce an edge coloring of the graph such that adjacent edges receive different colors and every cycle __C__ has at least min(|__C__|, __r__) colors.

The distance graph G(D) with distance set D={d 1 , d 2 , ...} has the set Z of integers as vertex set, with two vertices i, j Β₯ Z adjacent if and only if |i -j| Β₯ D. We prove that the chromatic number of G(D) is finite whenever inf{d i+1 /d i } > 1 and that every growth speed smaller than this admit

## Abstract It was only recently shown by Shi and Wormald, using the differential equation method to analyze an appropriate algorithm, that a random 5‐regular graph asymptotically almost surely has chromatic number at most 4. Here, we show that the chromatic number of a random 5‐regular graph is as
