✦ Synopsis


The edges and faces of a plane graph are colored so that every two adjacent or incident of them are colored differently. The minimal number of colors for this kind of coloring is estimated. For the plane graphs of the maximal degree at least 10, the bound is the best possible. The proof is based on some new generalizations of Kotzig's Theorem on the minimal weight of edges in plane graphs. Another tool is the concept of assigned coloring (choosability).

In a simultaneous colouring of the edges and faces of a plane graph we colour edges and faces so that every two adjacent or incident pair of them receive different colours. In this paper we prove a conjecture of Mel'nikov which states that for this colouring every plane graph can be coloured with 2+

## Abstract A face of an edge‐colored plane graph is called __rainbow__ if the number of colors used on its edges is equal to its size. The maximum number of colors used in an edge coloring of a connected plane graph __G__with no rainbow face is called __the edge‐rainbowness__ of __G__. In this pap

An edge-face coloring of a plane graph with edge set E and face set F is a coloring of the elements of E ∪F so that adjacent or incident elements receive different colors.

It was shown (Kronk and Mitchen, 1973) that the set of vertices, edges and faces of any normal map on the sphere can be colored with seven colors. In this paper we solve a somewhat different problem: the set of edges and faces of any plane graph with A ~< 3 can be colored by six colors.

A sequence r 1 , r 2 , . . . , r 2n such that r i = r n+i for all 1 ≤ i ≤ n is called a repetition. A sequence S is called non-repetitive if no block (i.e. subsequence of consecutive terms of S) is a repetition. Let G be a graph whose edges are colored. A trail is called non-repetitive if the sequen
