Let $$f:A \to B$$ be an onto (or surjective) function, where A and B are nonempty sets. Define an equivalence relation $$\sim$$ on the set A as

$${a_1} \sim {a_2}$$ if $$f({a_1}) = f({a_2})$$,

where $${a_1},{a_2} \in A$$. Let $$\varepsilon = \{ [x]:x \in A\} $$ be the set of all the equivalence classes under $$\sim$$. Define a new mapping $$F:\varepsilon \to B$$ as

$$F([x]) = f(x)$$, for all the equivalence classes $$[x]$$ in $$\varepsilon $$.

Which of the following statements is/are TRUE?

A
F is NOT well-defined.
B
F is an onto (or surjective) function.
C
F is a one-to-one (or injective) function.
D
F is a bijective function.

Let G be a simple, finite, undirected graph with vertex set {$$v_1,...,v_n$$}. Let $$\Delta(G)$$ denote the maximum degree of G and let N = {1, 2, ...} denote the set of all possible colors. Color the vertices of G using the following greedy strategy:

for $$i=1,....,n$$

color($$v_i)$$ $$\leftarrow$$ min{$$j\in N$$ : no neighbour of $$v_i$$ is colored $$j$$}

Which of the following statements is/are TRUE?

A
This procedure results in a proper vertex coloring of G.
B
The number of colors used is at most $$\Delta(G)+1$$.
C
The number of colors used is at most $$\Delta(G)$$
D
The number of colors used is equal to the chromatic number of G.
