Burnside Chromatic Polynomials of Group-Invariant Graphs
Abstract We introduce the Burnside chromatic polynomial of a graph that is invariant under a group action. This is a generalization of the Q-chromatic function Zaslavsky introduced for gain graphs. Given a group 𝕲 acting on a graph G and a 𝕲-set X, a proper X-coloring is a function with no monochromatic edge orbit. The set of proper colorings is a 𝕲-set which induces a polynomial function from the Burnside ring of 𝕲 to itself. In this paper, we study many properties of the Burnside chromatic polynomial, answering some questions of Zaslavsky.
期刊介绍:
The Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory publishes high-quality refereed original papers. Occasionally, very authoritative expository survey articles and notes of exceptional value can be published. The journal is mainly devoted to the following topics in Graph Theory: colourings, partitions (general colourings), hereditary properties, independence and domination, structures in graphs (sets, paths, cycles, etc.), local properties, products of graphs as well as graph algorithms related to these topics.
