متن کاملOn topological relaxations of chromatic conjectures
There are several famous unsolved conjectures about the chromatic number that were relaxed and already proven to hold for the fractional chromatic number. We discuss similar relaxations for the topological lower bound(s) of the chromatic number. In particular, we prove that such a relaxed version is true for the Behzad-Vizing conjecture and also discuss the conjectures of Hedetniemi and of Hadw...
متن کاملApproximating the Chromatic Polynomial
Chromatic polynomials are important objects in graph theory and statistical physics, but as a result of computational difficulties, their study is limited to graphs that are small, highly structured, or very sparse. We have devised and implemented two algorithms that approximate the coefficients of the chromatic polynomial P (G,x), where P (G, k) is the number of proper k-colorings of a graph G...
متن کاملA new two-variable generalization of the chromatic polynomial
Let P(G;x,y) be the number of vertex colorings φ : V →{1, ...,x} of an undirected graph G = (V,E) such that for all edges {u,v} ∈ E the relations φ(u)≤ y and φ(v)≤ y imply φ(u) 6= φ(v). We show that P(G;x,y) is a polynomial in x and y which is closely related to Stanley’s chromatic symmetric function, and which simultaneously generalizes the chromatic polynomial, the independence polynomial, an...
متن کاملBoundary chromatic polynomial
We consider proper colorings of planar graphs embedded in the annulus, such that vertices on one rim can take Qs colors, while all remaining vertices can take Q colors. The corresponding chromatic polynomial is related to the partition function of a boundary loop model. Using results for the latter, the phase diagram of the coloring problem (with real Q and Qs) is inferred, in the limits of two...
