A Note on Circular Chromatic Number of Graphs with Large Girth and Similar Problems
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this short note, we extend the result of Galluccio, Goddyn, and Hell, which states that graphs of large girth excluding a minor are nearly bipartite. We also prove a similar result for the oriented chromatic number, from which follows in particular that graphs of large girth excluding a minor have oriented chromatic number at most 5, and for the pth chromatic number χp, from which follows in particular that graphs G of large girth excluding a minor have χp(G) ≤ p+ 2.

The distinguishing chromatic number of bipartite graphs of girth at least six
The distinguishing number $D(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the least integer $d$ such that $G$ has a vertex labeling with $d$ labels that is preserved only by a trivial automorphism. The distinguishing chromatic number $chi_{D}(G)$ of $G$ is defined similarly, where, in addition, $f$ is assumed to be a proper labeling. We prove that if $G$ is a bipartite graph of girth at least six with the maximum ...
متن کاملThe circular chromatic number of series-parallel graphs of large odd girth
In this paper, we consider the circular chromatic number c (G) of series-parallel graphs G. It is well known that series-parallel graphs have chromatic number at most 3. Hence their circular chromatic number is also at most 3. If a series-parallel graph G contains a triangle , then both the chromatic number and the circular chromatic number of G are indeed equal to 3. We shall show that if a se...
متن کاملCircular Chromatic Number of Planar Graphs of Large Odd Girth
It was conjectured by Jaeger that 4k-edge connected graphs admit a (2k + 1, k)-flow. The restriction of this conjecture to planar graphs is equivalent to the statement that planar graphs of girth at least 4k have circular chromatic number at most 2 + 1 k . Even this restricted version of Jaeger’s conjecture is largely open. The k = 1 case is the well-known Grötzsch 3-colour theorem. This paper ...
متن کاملA new result on chromaticity of K4-homoemorphs with girth 9
For a graph $G$, let $P(G,lambda)$ denote the chromatic polynomial of $G$. Two graphs $G$ and $H$ are chromatically equivalent if they share the same chromatic polynomial. A graph $G$ is chromatically unique if any graph chromatically equivalent to $G$ is isomorphic to $G$. A $K_4$-homeomorph is a subdivision of the complete graph $K_4$. In this paper, we determine a family of chromatically uni...
متن کاملFractional, Circular, and Defective Coloring of Series-Parallel Graphs
In this note we consider colorings of series-parallel graphs. Specifically, we provide bounds on their fractional and circular chromatic numbers and the defective version of these parameters. The main result is that the fractional chromatic number of any series-parallel graph of odd girth k is exactly 2k/(k − 1).
