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

In this paper, we prove that any graph G with maximum degree รG ! 11 p 49ร241AEa2, which is embeddable in a surface AE of characteristic 1AE 1 and satisยฎes jVGj b 2รGร5ร2 p 6รG, is class one.
Given two integers v > 0 and e/> 0, we prove that there exists a finite graph (resp. a finite connected graph) whose automorphism group has exactly v orbits on the set of vertices and e orbits on the set of edges if and only if v ~< 2e + 1 (resp. v ~< e + 1).
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 In the edge precoloring extension problem, we are given a graph with some of the edges having preassigned colors and it has to be decided whether this coloring can be extended to a proper __k__โedgeโcoloring of the graph. In list edge coloring every edge has a list of admissible colors,
It is proved that any edge of a Pconnected non-planar graph G of order a t least 6 lies in a subdivision of K3,3 in G. For any 3-connected non-planar graph G of order a t least 6 we show that G contains at most four edges which belong to no subdivisions of K3,3 in G.
