Kneser representations of graphs

The Kneser graph Kn:k for positive integers n ≥ k has as its vertex set the k-element subsets of some n-set, with disjoint sets being adjacent. Every finite simple graph can be found as an induced subgraph of some Kneser graph; this talk explores some questions arising from that fact. We also explore the connections with known coloring results of graphs.
