A facial parity edge colouring of a connected bridgeless plane graph is an edge colouring in which no two face-adjacent edges (consecutive edges of a facial walk of some face) receive the same colour, in addition, for each face α and each colour c, either no edge or an odd number of edges incident with α is coloured with c. From Vizing's...

A vertex colouring of a 2-connected plane graph G is a strong parity vertex colouring if for every face f and each colour c, the number of vertices incident with f coloured by c is either zero or odd. Czap et al. [Discrete Math. 311 (2011) 512-520] proved that every 2-connected plane graph has a proper strong parity vertex colouring with at...

A sequence r1, r2, ..., r2n such that ri=rn+ i for all 1≤i≤n is called a repetition. A sequence S is called non-repetitive if no block (i.e. subsequence of consecutive terms of S) is a repetition. Let G be a graph whose edges are colored. A trail is called non-repetitive if the sequence of colors of its edges is non-repetitive. If G is a plane...

A face of a vertex coloured plane graph is called loose if the number of colours used on its vertices is at least three. The looseness of a plane graph G is the minimum k such that any surjective k-colouring involves a loose face. In this paper we prove that the looseness of a connected plane graph G equals the maximum number of vertex disjoint...

A sequence $r_1,r_2,\dots,r_{2n}$ such that $r_i=r_{n+i}$ for all $1\leq i \leq n$, is called a {\em repetition}. A sequence $S$ is called {\em non-repetitive} if no {\it block} (i.e. subsequence of consecutive terms of $S$) is a repetition. Let $G$ be a graph whose edges are coloured. A trail is called {\em non-repetitive} if the sequence of...
