An additive hereditary property of graphs is a class of simple graphs which is closed under unions, subgraphs and isomorphism. Let P and Q be additive hereditary properties of graphs. A (P,Q)-total coloring of a simple graph G is a coloring of the vertices V(G) and edges E(G) of G such that for each color i the vertices colored by i induce a subgraph of property P, the edges colored by i induce a subgraph of property Q and incident vertices and edges obtain different colors. In this paper we present some general basic results on (P,Q)-total colorings. We determine the (P,Q)-total chromatic number of paths and cycles and, for specific properties, of complete graphs. Moreover, we prove a compactness theorem for (P,Q)-total colorings.
Keywords: hereditary properties, generalized total colorings, paths, cycles, complete graphs
