The coloring problem of graphs is one of primary fields in the study of graph theories. The coloring problem plays an important role in the combinatorial mathmatics and our living.As the development of science,the classics colorings cannot meet the requirement, and some new colorings are proposed.A(proper) k-coloring of graph G is an assignment of one of k colors to each vertex in such a way that adjacent vertices have distinct colors.Define the chromatic number of G asχ(G)=min {k|graph G has k-colorings}.Similar,a(proper) k-edge-coloring of graph G is an assignment of one of k colors to each edge so that no two adjacent edges have the same color.the edge-chromatic number of G asχ′(G)=min{k|graph G has kedge -colorings}.Griggs and Yeh introduced L(2,1)-labellings in.Its natural generalization L(p,1)-labelling of a graph is an integer assignment L to the vertex set V(G) such that:(1)|L(u) - L(v)|≥p,if dG(u,v) = 1;(2)|L(u) - L(v)|≥1,if dG(u,v) = 2.L(p,1)-labelling of a graph plays an important role in the frequency assignment.Whi -ttlesey et al.in studied L(2,1)-labellings of first subdivision of a graph G.The first subdivision of a graph G is the graph s1(G) obtained from G by inserting one vertex along each edge of G.An L(p,1)-labelling of s1(G) corresponds to an assignment of integers to V(G)∪E(G) such that: (1)any two adjacent vertices of G receive distinct integers;(2)any two adjacent edges of G receive distinct integers;(3)a vertex and edge incident receive integers that differ by at least p in absolute value.We call such an assignment a(p,1)-total labelling of G.The span of a(p,1)-total labelling is the maximum difference between two labels. The minimum span of a(p,1)-total labelling of G is called the(p,1)-total number and denoted byλpT(G).Now the study of the(p,1)-total labelling is not enough.In the paper,the triviality lower and upper bounds are given and the(p,1)-total labelling conjecture:λpT(G)≤△(G) + 2p-1.The packing coloring is presented with the application to frequency assignments recently.The packing coloring is a variation of the coloring,and a partition of the graph vertices.All of the vertices should be partitionded into the packings Xi with pairwise diffent widths,so that in the same packing Xi the vertices must be pairse at distance more than i and be colored with the same coloring.The different packings must be colored with different colorings.The packing chromatic numberχρ(G) = min{k|graph G has k-packing coloring}.The first chapter of this paper gives the basic conceps,terminologies and symboles which are used in this paper and a brief introduction about the development of the graph coloring.In the second chapter,we study the(p,1)-total labelling of graphs such as outerplanar graph,bipartite graph,regular graph,Halin graph.In the third chapter,we study the packing coloring of graph.The best possible upper bounds on the packing chromatic number of the bipartite graph and Mycielskian-graph are given.Finally the packing chromatic numbers of some paticular graphs are given.In this paper we have the following theorems:Theorem 2.1.4 Let G be a 2-connected outerplanar and triangle -free graph with△(G) =3,if p≥3,thenλpT(G) =p+3. Theorem 2.2.2 Let G be a bipartite graph with△(G)=3,not regulax,if G contains a vertex with maximum degree which is adjacent to two vertices with maximum degree,thenλ2T(G) = 5.Theorem 2.2.4 Let G be a bipartite graph with△(G) = 4,not regular,if the induced graph G△of the vertices with maximum degree contains K1,3,thenλ2T(G) = 6.Theorem 2.3.1 Let G be a△-regular graph,if p>χ(G) +χ′(G) - 2,andχ′(G) =△(G),thenλpT(G) =χ(G) +χ′(G) + p- 2.Theorem 2.3.2 If G is a 3-regulax graph with 1-factor,thenλpT(G)≤p + 5.Theorem 2.3.3 Let G be a 3-regular graph,ifχ(G) = 3,p>3,thenλpT(G)≥p+4.Definition 2.4.1 For a 3-connected plane graph G(V,E,F),if all edges on the boundary of one face f0 of the face set F are removed,it becomes a tree,and the degree of each vertex of V(f0) is three,then graph G is called a Halin graph,the vertices on V(f0) are called exterior vertices of G,and the others interior vertices of G.Theorem 2.4.3 If G is a 3-regular Halin graph,then 5≤λ2T(G)≤6.Theorem 2.4.5 If G is a Halin graph with△(G) = 4,thenλ2T(G)≤6.Definition 2.5.1 Let G be a connected graph,with V(G) = {v1,v2,...,vn}.Let G′be a copy of G with V(G′)= {v1′,v2′,...,vn′}.A new graph D(G) is defined as followings:V(D(G))= V(G)∪V(G′),andE(D(G))= E(G)∪E(G′)∪{v1v1′,v2v2′…, vnvn′,},We call it double graph D(G).Theorem 2.5.1 Let Cn be a cycle,thenλ2T(D(Cn)) =5.Theorem 2.5.2 Let G be a connected graph,withλ2T(G)=△+ 4,D(G) be the double graph gained by G,thenλ2T(D(G))≤λ2T(G) + 1. Theorem 3.1.1 Let Gm,n be a bipartite graph,thenχρ(Gm,n)≤min{m,n} + 1,and this upper bound is best possible.Mycielskian-graph of simple graph plays an important role in the study of the critical property of graph coloring.Here we study the packing coloring of Mycielskian-graphTheorem 3.1.4 Let G be a simple graph,and|G|= n.M(G) be the Mycielskian-graph of G,thenχρ(M(G))≤n + 2.and this upper bound is best possible.In addition,we also study the the packing coloring of some particular graphs.
