## Abstract In this paper we consider those graphs that have maximum degree at least 1/__k__ times their order, where __k__ is a (small) positive integer. A result of Hajnal and Szemerédi concerning equitable vertex‐colorings and an adaptation of the standard proof of Vizing's Theorem are used to s

Abstract
In this paper we discuss some estimates for upper bounds on a number of chromatic parameters of a multigraph. In particular, we show that the total chromatic number for an n‐order multigraph exceeds the chromatic index by the smallest t such that t! > n.

## Abstract The upper bound for the harmonious chromatic number of a graph that has been given by Sin‐Min Lee and John Mitchem is improved.
It is well known that almost every graph in the random space G(n, p) has chromatic number of order O(np/ log(np)), but it is not clear how we can recognize such graphs without eventually computing the chromatic numbers, which is NP-hard. The first goal of this article is to show that the above-menti
