چکیده

In this paper, we extend the Grr otzsch Theorem by proving that the clique hypergraph H(G) of every planar graph is 3-colorable. We also extend this result to list colorings by proving that H(G) is 4-choosable for every planar or projective planar graph G. Finally, 4-choosability of H(G) is established for the class of locally planar graphs on arbitrary surfaces.

A Continuous Characterization of Maximal Cliques in k-Uniform Hypergraphs

In 1965 Motzkin and Straus established a remarkable connection between the local/global maximizers of the Lagrangian of a graph G over the standard simplex ∆ and the maximal/maximum cliques of G. In this work we generalize the Motzkin-Straus theorem to k-uniform hypergraphs, establishing an isomorphism between local/global minimizers of a particular function over ∆ and the maximal/maximum cliqu...

Coloring the hypergraph of maximal cliques of a graph with no long path

We consider the problem of coloring the vertices of a graph so that no maximal clique of size at least two is monocolored. We solve the following question: Given a ;xed graph F , does there exist an integer f(F) such that the hypergraph of maximal cliques of any F-free graph can be f(F)-colored? We show that the answer is positive if and only if all components of F are paths. In that case we gi...
