Chromatic polynomials of some nanostars
Let G be a simple graph and (G,) denotes the number of proper vertex colourings of G with at most colours, which is for a fixed graph G , a polynomial in , which is called the chromatic polynomial of G . Using the chromatic polynomial of some specific graphs, we obtain the chromatic polynomials of some nanostars.
متن کاملChromatic Harmonic Indices and Chromatic Harmonic Polynomials of Certain Graphs
In the main this paper introduces the concept of chromatic harmonic polynomials denoted, $H^chi(G,x)$ and chromatic harmonic indices denoted, $H^chi(G)$ of a graph $G$. The new concept is then applied to finding explicit formula for the minimum (maximum) chromatic harmonic polynomials and the minimum (maximum) chromatic harmonic index of certain graphs. It is also applied to split graphs and ce...
متن کاملOn the complexity of generalized chromatic polynomials
J. Makowsky and B. Zilber (2004) showed that many variations of graph colorings, called CP-colorings in the sequel, give rise to graph polynomials. This is true in particular for harmonious colorings, convex colorings, mcct-colorings, and rainbow colorings, and many more. N. Linial (1986) showed that the chromatic polynomial χ(G;X) is #P-hard to evaluate for all but three values X = 0, 1, 2, wh...
متن کاملComputation of Chromatic Polynomials Using Triangulations and Clique Trees
In this paper, we present a new algorithm for computing the chromatic polynomial of a general graph G. Our method is based on the addition of edges and contraction of non-edges of G, the base case of the recursion being chordal graphs. The set of edges to be considered is taken from a triangulation of G. To achieve our goal, we use the properties of triangulations and clique-trees with respect ...
متن کاملChromatic and Tutte Polynomials for Graphs, Rooted Graphs and Trees
The chromatic polynomial of a graph is a one-variable polynomial that counts the number of ways the vertices of a graph can be properly colored. It was invented in 1912 by G.D. Birkhoff in his unsuccessful attempt to solve the four-color problem. In the 1940’s, Tutte generalized Birkhoff’s polynomial by adding another variable and analyzing its combinatorial properties. The Tutte polynomial its...
