Linear Coloring and Linear Graphs
Motivated by the definition of linear coloring on simplicial complexes, recently introduced in the context of algebraic topology [9], and the framework through which it was studied, we introduce the linear coloring on graphs. We provide an upper bound for the chromatic number χ(G), for any graph G, and show that G can be linearly colored in polynomial time by proposing a simple linear coloring ...
متن کاملA Note on Linear Coloring of Graphs
A proper vertex coloring of a graph is called linear if the subgraph induced by the vertices colored by any two colors is a set of vertex-disjoint paths. The linear chromatic number of a graph G, denoted by lc(G), is the minimum number of colors in a linear coloring of G. Extending a result of Alon, McDiarmid and Reed concerning acyclic graph colorings, we show that if G has maximum degree d th...
متن کاملEdge-coloring Vertex-weightings of Graphs
Let $G=(V(G),E(G))$ be a simple, finite and undirected graph of order $n$. A $k$-vertex weightings of a graph $G$ is a mapping $w: V(G) to {1, ldots, k}$. A $k$-vertex weighting induces an edge labeling $f_w: E(G) to N$ such that $f_w(uv)=w(u)+w(v)$. Such a labeling is called an {it edge-coloring k-vertex weightings} if $f_{w}(e)not= f_{w}(echr(chr(chr('39')39chr('39'))39chr(chr('39')39chr('39'...
متن کاملColoring Meyniel graphs in linear time
A Meyniel graph is a graph in which every odd cycle of length at least five has two chords. We present a linear-time algorithm that colors optimally the vertices of a Meyniel graph and finds a clique of maximum size.
متن کامل-λ coloring of graphs and Conjecture Δ ^ 2
For a given graph G, the square of G, denoted by G2, is a graph with the vertex set V(G) such that two vertices are adjacent if and only if the distance of these vertices in G is at most two. A graph G is called squared if there exists some graph H such that G= H2. A function f:V(G) {0,1,2…, k} is called a coloring of G if for every pair of vertices x,yV(G) with d(x,y)=1 we have |f(x)-f(y)|2 an...
