Abstract:
A subgraph H in an edge-colouring is properly coloured if incident edges of H are assigned different colours, and H is rainbow if no two edges of H are assigned the same colour. We study properly coloured subgraphs and rainbow subgraphs forced in edge-colourings of complete graphs in which each vertex is incident to a large number of colours.

Abstract:
Arainbow subgraphof an edge-coloured graph is a subgraph whose edges have distinct colours. Thecolour degreeof a vertexvis the number of different colours on edges incident withv. Wang and Li conjectured that fork≥ 4, every edge-coloured graph with minimum colour degreekcontains a rainbow matching of size at least ⌈k/2⌉. A properly edge-colouredK4has no such matching, which motivates the restrictionk≥ 4, but Li and Xu proved the conjecture for all other properly coloured complete graphs. LeSaulnier, Stocker, Wenger and West showed that a rainbow matching of size ⌊k/2⌋ is guaranteed to exist, and they proved several sufficient conditions for a matching of size ⌈k/2⌉. We prove the conjecture in full.

Abstract:
For two graphs S and T, the constrained Ramsey number f(S, T) is the minimum n such that every edge colouring of the complete graph on n vertices (with any number of colours) has a monochromatic subgraph isomorphic to S or a rainbow subgraph isomorphic to T. Here, a subgraph is said to be rainbow if all of its edges have different colours. It is an immediate consequence of the Erdős–Rado Canonical Ramsey Theorem that f(S, T) exists if and only if S is a star or T is acyclic. Much work has been done to determine the rate of growth of f(S, T) for various types of parameters. When S and T are both trees having s and t edges respectively, Jamison, Jiang and Ling showed that f(S, T) ≤ O(st2) and conjectured that it is always at most O(st). They also mentioned that one of the most interesting open special cases is when T is a path. In this paper, we study this case and show that f(S, Pt) = O(st log t), which differs only by a logarithmic factor from the conjecture. This substantially improves the previous bounds for most values of s and t.

Abstract:
A subgraph H of an edge-colored graph G is called rainbow if all of its edges have different colors. Let ar(G,H) denote the maximum positive integer t, such that there is a t-edge-colored graph G without any rainbow subgraph H. We denote by kK2 a matching of size k and On the class of all maximal outer-planar graphs on n vertices, respectively. The outer-planar anti-Ramsey number of graph H, denoted by ar(On,H), is defined as max{ar(On,H)|On∈On}. It seems nontrivial to determine the exact values for ar(On,H) because most maximal outer-planar graphs are asymmetry. In this paper, we obtain that ar(On,kK2)≤n+3k−8 for all n≥2k and k≥6, which improves the existing upper bound for ar(On,kK2), and prove that ar(On,kK2)=n+2k−5 for n=2k and k≥5. We also obtain that ar(On,6K2)=n+6 for all n≥29.

Abstract:
For a graph G and a vertex subset [Formula: see text] of at least two vertices, an S-tree is a subgraph T of G that is a tree with [Formula: see text]. Two S-trees are said to be edge-disjoint if they have no common edge. Let [Formula: see text] denote the maximum number of edge-disjoint S-trees in G. For an integer K with [Formula: see text], the generalized k-edge-connectivity is defined as [Formula: see text]. An S-tree in an edge-colored graph is rainbow if no two edges of it are assigned the same color. Let [Formula: see text] and l be integers with [Formula: see text], the [Formula: see text]-rainbow edge-index [Formula: see text] of G is the smallest number of colors needed in an edge-coloring of G such that for every set S of k vertices of G, there exist l edge-disjoint rainbow S-trees.In this paper, we study the [Formula: see text]-rainbow edge-index of Cartesian product graphs and get a sharp upper bound for [Formula: see text] , where G and H are connected graphs with orders at least three, and [Formula: see text] denotes the Cartesian product of G and H.

Abstract:
The concept of the [Formula: see text]-rainbow index of a network comes from the communication of information between agencies of government, which was introduced by Chartrand et al. in 2010. As a natural counterpart of the [Formula: see text]-rainbow index, the concept of [Formula: see text]-vertex-rainbow index was also introduced. For a graph [Formula: see text] and a set [Formula: see text] of at least two vertices, an [Formula: see text]-Steiner tree or a Steiner tree connecting [Formula: see text] (or simply, an [Formula: see text]-tree) is such a subgraph [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] that is a tree with [Formula: see text]. For [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], an [Formula: see text]-Steiner tree [Formula: see text] is said to be a vertex-rainbow [Formula: see text]-tree if the vertices of [Formula: see text] have distinct colors. For a fixed integer [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text], the vertex-coloring [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] is called a [Formula: see text]-vertex-rainbow coloring if for every [Formula: see text]-subset [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] there exists a vertex-rainbow [Formula: see text]-tree. In this case, [Formula: see text] is called vertex-rainbow [Formula: see text]-tree-connected. The minimum number of colors that are needed in a [Formula: see text]-vertex-rainbow coloring of [Formula: see text] is called the [Formula: see text]-vertex-rainbow index of [Formula: see text], denoted by [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we study the complexity of determining the [Formula: see text]-vertex-rainbow index of a graph and prove that computing [Formula: see text] is [Formula: see text]-Hard. Moreover, we show that it is [Formula: see text]-Complete to decide whether [Formula: see text]. We also prove that the following problem is [Formula: see text]-Complete: Given a vertex-colored graph [Formula: see text], check whether the given coloring makes [Formula: see text] vertex-rainbow [Formula: see text]-tree-connected.

In the paper we discuss the uniqueness of the colorings, generalize the idea of their construction and show how to use it to construct the colorings of the edges of complete split graphs avoiding rainbow 2-connected subgraphs.

Abstract:
Abstract We consider vertex colorings where the number of colors given to specified subgraphs is restricted. In particular, given some fixed graph F and some fixed set A of positive integers, we consider (not necessarily proper) colorings of the vertices of a graph G such that, for every copy of F in G, the number of colors it receives is in A. This generalizes proper colorings, defective coloring, and no-rainbow coloring, inter alia. In this paper we focus on the case that A is a singleton set. In particular, we investigate the colorings where the graph F is a star or is 1-regular.

Abstract:
An $H$-factor of a graph $G$ is a spanning subgraph of $G$ whose connected components are isomorphic to $H$. Given a properly edge-colored graph $G$, a rainbow $H$-subgraph of $G$ is an $H$-subgraph of $G$ whose edges have distinct colors. A rainbow $H$-factor is an $H$-factor whose components are rainbow $H$-subgraphs. The following result is proved. If $H$ is any fixed graph with $h$ vertices then every properly edge-colored graph with $hn$ vertices and minimum degree $(1-1/\chi(H))hn+o(n)$ has a rainbow $H$-factor.

Abstract:
Abstract A subgraph of an edge-coloured graph is called rainbow if all its edges have different colours. We prove a rainbow version of the blow-up lemma of Komlós, Sárközy, and Szemerédi that applies to almost optimally bounded colourings. A corollary of this is that there exists a rainbow copy of any bounded-degree spanning subgraph H in a quasirandom host graph G, assuming that the edge-colouring of G fulfills a boundedness condition that is asymptotically best possible. This has many applications beyond rainbow colourings: for example, to graph decompositions, orthogonal double covers, and graph labellings.

Abstract:
A rainbow subgraph of an edge-colored graph is a subgraph whose edges have distinct colors. The color degree of a vertex $v$ is the number of different colors on edges incident to $v$. Wang and Li conjectured that for $k\geq 4$, every edge-colored graph with minimum color degree at least $k$ contains a rainbow matching of size at least $\left\lceil k/2 \right\rceil$. We prove the slightly weaker statement that a rainbow matching of size at least $\left\lfloor k/2 \right\rfloor$ is guaranteed. We also give sufficient conditions for a rainbow matching of size at least $\left\lceil k/2 \right\rceil$ that fail to hold only for finitely many exceptions (for each odd $k$).

Abstract:
We say that $k$ graphs $G_1,G_2,\dots,G_k$ on a common vertex set of size $n$ contain a rainbow copy of a graph $H$ if their union contains a copy of $H$ with each edge belonging to a distinct $G_i$. We provide a counterexample to a conjecture of Frankl on the maximum product of the sizes of the edge sets of three graphs avoiding a rainbow triangle. We propose an alternative conjecture, which we prove under the additional assumption that the union of the three graphs is complete. Furthermore, we determine the maximum product of the sizes of the edge sets of three graphs or four graphs avoiding a rainbow path of length three.

Abstract:
For a fixed graph $H$ on $k$ vertices, and a graph $G$ on at least $k$ vertices, we write $G\longrightarrow H$ if in any vertex-coloring of $G$ with $k$ colors, there is an induced subgraph isomorphic to $H$ whose vertices have distinct colors. In other words, if $G\longrightarrow H$ then a totally multicolored induced copy of $H$ is unavoidable in any vertex-coloring of $G$ with $k$ colors. In this paper, we show that, with a few notable exceptions, for any graph $H$ on $k$ vertices and for any graph $G$ which is not isomorphic to $H$, $G\not\!\!\longrightarrow H$. We explicitly describe all exceptional cases. This determines the induced vertex-anti-Ramsey number for all graphs and shows that totally multicolored induced subgraphs are, in most cases, easily avoidable.

Abstract:
Abstract A subgraph of an edge-coloured graph is called rainbow if all its edges have distinct colours. The study of rainbow subgraphs goes back to the work of Euler on Latin squares and has been the focus of extensive research ever since. Many conjectures in this area roughly say that “every edge coloured graph of a certain type contains a rainbow matching using every colour.” In this paper we introduce a versatile “sampling trick,” which allows us to asymptotically solve some well-known conjectures and to obtain short proofs of old results. In particular: $\bullet $ We give the first asymptotic proof of the “non-bipartite” Aharoni–Berger conjecture, solving two conjectures of Aharoni, Berger, Chudnovsky, and Zerbib. $\bullet $ We give a very short asymptotic proof of Grinblat’s conjecture (first obtained by Clemens, Ehrenmüller, and Pokrovskiy). Furthermore, we obtain a new asymptotically tight bound for Grinblat’s problem as a function of edge multiplicity of the corresponding multigraph. $\bullet $ We give the first asymptotic proof of a 30-year-old conjecture of Alspach. $\bullet $ We give a simple proof of Pokrovskiy’s asymptotic version of the Aharoni–Berger conjecture with greatly improved error term.
