Solutions for two conjectures on kaleidoscopic edge-colorings
  For an $r$-regular graph $G$, we define an edge-coloring $c$ with colors from $\{1,2,\cdots,$ $k\}$, in such a way that any vertex of $G$ is incident to at least one edge of each color. The multiset-color $c_m(v)$ of a vertex $v$ is defined as the ordered tuple $(a_1,a_2,\cdots ,a_k)$, where $a_i \ (1\leq i\leq k)$ denotes the number of edges with color $i$ which are incident with $v$ in $G$. Then this edge-coloring $c$ is called a {\it $k$-kaleidoscopic coloring} of $G$ if every two distinct vertices in $G$ have different multiset-colors and in this way the graph $G$ is defined as a {\it $k$-kaleidoscope}. In this paper, we determine the integer $k$ for a complete graph $K_n$ to be a $k$-kaleidoscope, and hence solve a conjecture in [P. Zhang, A Kaleidoscopic View of Graph Colorings, Springer, New York, 2016] that for any integers $n$ and $k$ with $n\geq k+3 \geq 6$, the complete graph $K_n$ is a $k$-kaleidoscope. Then, we construct an $r$-regular $3$-kaleidoscope of order $\binom{r-1}{2}-1$ for each integer $r\geq 7$, where $r\equiv 3\ (\text{mod}\ 4)$, which solves another conjecture in the same book on the maximum order for $r$-regular $3$-kaleidoscopes.
