A catalogue is presented which contains the graphs having order at most 10 which are critical with respect to the total chromatic number. A number of structural properties which cause these graphs to be critical are discussed, and a number of infinite classes of critical graphs are identified.A total colouring of a graph
A longstanding conjecture, made independently by Behzad [3] and Vizing [17], claims that
