Abstract

Let a"1,a"2,...,a"k be positive integers. An (a"1,a"2,...,a"k)-packing coloring of a graph G is a mapping from V(G) to {1,2,...,k} such that vertices with color i have pairwise distance greater than a"i. In this paper, we study (a"1,a"2,...,a"k)-packing colorings of several lattices including the infinite square, triangular, and hexagonal lattices. For k small, we determine all a"i such that these graphs have packing colorings. We also give some exact values and asymptotic bounds.
