## Abstract In this article we first give an upper bound for the chromatic number of a graph in terms of its degrees. This bound generalizes and modifies the bound given in 11. Next, we obtain an upper bound of the order of magnitude ${\cal O}({n}^{{1}-\epsilon})$ for the coloring number of a graph

We show that if a graph has acyclic chromatic number k, then its game chromatic number is at most k(k + 1). By applying the known upper bounds for the acyclic chromatic numbers of various classes of graphs, we obtain upper bounds for the game chromatic number of these classes of graphs. In particula

## Abstract After giving a new proof of a well‐known theorem of Dirac on critical graphs, we discuss the elegant upper bounds of Matula and Szekeres‐Wilf which follow from it. In order to improve these bounds, we consider the following fundamental coloring problem: given an edge‐cut (__V__~1~, __V_
