"On the average number of colors in the non-equivalent colorings of a graph"

with Subject: Peled Memorial Lecture 2021
Abstract: Two colorings of a graph are equivalent if they induce the same partition of the vertex set into stable sets. We are interested in the average number A(G) of colors in the non-equivalent colorings of a graph. We give properties of this new graph invariant and show how it can help derive inequalities for the Bell numbers. We then prove some bounds on A(G) and finish with many open questions.
