Abstract
Given a graph G and a natural number r, we use all possible r-colorings of V (G) and E(G) to introduce chromatic path numbers and chromatic diameters of G. Replacing colorings of E(G) with orientations, we define directed path numbers and directed diameter of G. We formulate 7 open problems.
Keywords
