Abstract.
Given a graph G and a positive integer r, let f r (G) denote the largest number of colors that can be used in a coloring of E(G) such that each vertex is incident to at most r colors. For all positive integers n and r, we determine f r (K n,n ) exactly and f r (K n ) within 1. In doing so, we disprove a conjecture by Manoussakis, Spyratos, Tuza and Voigt in [4].
