چکیده

We consider the problem of aligned coloring of interval and chordal graphs. These problems have substantial applications to register allocation in compilers and have recently been proven NP-Hard. We provide the first constant approximations: a 4 3 -approximation for interval graphs and a 3 2 -approximation for chordal graphs. We extend our techniques to the problem of minimizing spillage in these graph types.

Total-Chromatic Number and Chromatic Index of Dually Chordal Graphs

A graph is dually chordal if it is the clique graph of a chordal graph. Alternatively, a graph is dually chordal if it admits a maximum neighbourhood order. This class generalizes known subclasses of chordal graphs such as doubly chordal graphs, strongly chordal graphs and interval graphs. We prove that Vizing's total-colour conjecture holds for dually chordal graphs. We describe a new heuristi...

A greedy method for edge-colouring odd maximum degree doubly chordal graphs

We describe a greedy vertex colouring method which can be used to colour optimally the edge set of certain chordal graphs. This new heuristic yields an exact edge-colouring algorithm for odd maximumdegree doubly chordal graphs. This method shows that any such graph G can be edge-coloured with maximum degree (G) colours, i.e., all these graphs are Class 1. In addition, this method gives a simple...

Reconfiguration of Colorable Sets in Classes of Perfect Graphs

A set of vertices in a graph is c-colorable if the subgraph induced by the set has a proper c-coloring. In this paper, we study the problem of finding a step-by-step transformation (reconfiguration) between two c-colorable sets in the same graph. This problem generalizes the well-studied Independent Set Reconfiguration problem. As the first step toward a systematic understanding of the complexi...

The Black-and-White Coloring Problem on Distance-Hereditary Graphs and Strongly Chordal Graphs

Given a graph G and integers b and w. The black-and-white coloring problem asks if there exist disjoint sets of vertices B and W with |B| = b and |W| = w such that no vertex in B is adjacent to any vertex inW. In this paper we show that the problem is polynomial when restricted to cographs, distance-hereditary graphs, interval graphs and strongly chordal graphs. We show that the problem is NP-c...

Complement of Special Chordal Graphs and Vertex Decomposability

In this paper, we introduce a subclass of chordal graphs which contains $d$-trees and show that their complement are vertex decomposable and so is shellable and sequentially Cohen-Macaulay.
