We show that any proper coloring of a Kneser graph $KG_{n,k}$ with $n-2k+2$ colors contains a trivial color (i.e., a color consisting of sets that all contain a fixed element), provided $n>(2+epsilon)k^2$, where $epsilonto 0$ as $kto infty$. This bound is essentially tight.

In this short note, we show that for any $epsilon >0$ and $k<n^{0.5-epsilon}$ the choice number of the Kneser graph $KG_{n,k}$ is $Theta (nlog n)$.
A proper edge-coloring of a graph $G$ with colors $1,ldots,t$ is called an emph{interval cyclic $t$-coloring} if all colors are used, and the edges incident to each vertex $vin V(G)$ are colored by $d_{G}(v)$ consecutive colors modulo $t$, where $d_{G}(v)$ is the degree of a vertex $v$ in $G$. A graph $G$ is emph{interval cyclically colorable} if it has an interval cyclic $t$-coloring for some positive integer $t$. The set of all interval cyclically colorable graphs is denoted by $mathfrak{N}_{c}$. For a graph $Gin mathfrak{N}_{c}$, the least and the greatest values of $t$ for which it has an interval cyclic $t$-coloring are denoted by $w_{c}(G)$ and $W_{c}(G)$, respectively. In this paper we investigate some properties of interval cyclic colorings. In particular, we prove that if $G$ is a triangle-free graph with at least two vertices and $Gin mathfrak{N}_{c}$, then $W_{c}(G)leq vert V(G)vert +Delta(G)-2$. We also obtain bounds on $w_{c}(G)$ and $W_{c}(G)$ for various classes of graphs. Finally, we give some methods for constructing of interval cyclically non-colorable graphs.
An edge-coloring of a graph $G$ with consecutive integers $c_{1},ldots,c_{t}$ is called an emph{interval $t$-coloring} if all colors are used, and the colors of edges incident to any vertex of $G$ are distinct and form an interval of integers. A graph $G$ is interval colorable if it has an interval $t$-coloring for some positive integer $t$. The set of all interval colorable graphs is denoted by $mathfrak{N}$. In 2004, Giaro and Kubale showed that if $G,Hin mathfrak{N}$, then the Cartesian product of these graphs belongs to $mathfrak{N}$. In the same year they formulated a similar problem for the composition of graphs as an open problem. Later, in 2009, the first author showed that if $G,Hin mathfrak{N}$ and $H$ is a regular graph, then $G[H]in mathfrak{N}$. In this paper, we prove that if $Gin mathfrak{N}$ and $H$ has an interval coloring of a special type, then $G[H]in mathfrak{N}$. Moreover, we show that all regular graphs, complete bipartite graphs and trees have such a special interval coloring. In particular, this implies that if $Gin mathfrak{N}$ and $T$ is a tree, then $G[T]in mathfrak{N}$.
$H_q(n,d)$ is defined as the graph with vertex set ${mathbb Z}_q^n$ and where two vertices are adjacent if their Hamming distance is at least $d$. The chromatic number of these graphs is presented for various sets of parameters $(q,n,d)$. For the $4$-colorings of the graphs $H_2(n,n-1)$ a notion of robustness is introduced. It is based on the tolerance of swapping colors along an edge without destroying properness of the coloring. An explicit description of the maximally robust $4$-colorings of $H_2(n,n-1)$ is presented.
For fixed positive integers $r, k$ and $ell$ with $1 leq ell < r$ and an $r$-uniform hypergraph $H$, let $kappa (H, k,ell)$ denote the number of $k$-colorings of the set of hyperedges of $H$ for which any two hyperedges in the same color class intersect in at least $ell$ elements. Consider the function $KC(n,r,k,ell)=max_{Hin{mathcal H}_{n}} kappa (H, k,ell) $, where the maximum runs over the family ${mathcal H}_n$ of all $r$-uniform hypergraphs on $n$ vertices. In this paper, we determine the asymptotic behavior of the function $KC(n,r,k,ell)$ for every fixed $r$, $k$ and $ell$ and describe the extremal hypergraphs. This variant of a problem of ErdH{o}s and Rothschild, who considered edge colorings of graphs without a monochromatic triangle, is related to the ErdH{o}s--Ko--Rado Theorem on intersecting systems of sets [Intersection Theorems for Systems of Finite Sets, Quarterly Journal of Mathematics, Oxford Series, Series 2, {bf 12} (1961), 313--320].
