Let G be a planar graph. The vertex face total chromatic number ,y13(G) of G is the least number of colors assigned to V(G) U F(G) such that no adjacent or incident elements receive the same color. The main results of this paper are as follows: (1) We give the vertex face total chromatic number for

β¦ Synopsis
In this paper, we shall first prove that for a Halin graph G, 4 Β°xT (G) Β°6, where x T (G) is the vertex-face total chromatic number of G. Second, we shall establish a sufficient condition for a Halin graph to have a vertex-face total chromatic number of 6. Finally, we shall give a necessary and sufficient condition for a Halin graph to have a vertex-face total chromatic number of 4 and describe a way of assigning the four colors to such graphs.

We introduce in this paper the notion of the chromatic number of an oriented graph G (that is of an antisymmetric directed graph) defined as the minimum order of an oriented graph H such that G admits a homomorphism to H. We study the chromatic number of oriented k-trees and of oriented graphs with
Colorings of disk graphs arise in the study of the frequency-assignment problem in broadcast networks. Motivated by the observations that the chromatic number of graphs modeling real networks hardly exceeds their clique number, we examine the related properties of the unit disk (UD) graphs and their
The star-chromatic number of a graph, a parameter introduced by Vince, is a natural generalization of the chromatic number of a graph. Here we construct planar graphs with star-chromatic number r, where r is any rational number between 2 and 3, partially answering a question of Vince.
In this article, we consider the circular chromatic number Ο c (G) of series-parallel graphs G. It is well known that series-parallel graphs have chromatic number at most 3. Hence, their circular chromatic numbers are at most 3. If a seriesparallel graph G contains a triangle, then both the chromati
