Abstract
The main subject of our research will be generalized colorings as well as the classical proper colorings of graphs. First, we will study the structure and the properties of critical graphs for various types of colorings. We will try to answer why a given graph embedded in a fixed closed surface has large (generalized) chromatic number. For surfaces of small genus, we will look for influence of short cycles on the chromatic number. Our additional task will be to apply old and new results and methods of chromatic theory in various channel and frequency assignment models, theory of light structures, and nowhere-zero integer flows. Part of our investigation will be related to graph decompositions and various combinatorial structures which arise in related mathematical problems.
