Equitable coloring of Kneser graphs

Robert Fidytek, Hanna Furmańczyk, Paweł Żyliński (2009)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

The Kneser graph K(n,k) is the graph whose vertices correspond to k-element subsets of set {1,2,...,n} and two vertices are adjacent if and only if they represent disjoint subsets. In this paper we study the problem of equitable coloring of Kneser graphs, namely, we establish the equitable chromatic number for graphs K(n,2) and K(n,3). In addition, for sufficiently large n, a tight upper bound on equitable chromatic number of graph K(n,k) is given. Finally, the cases of K(2k,k) and K(2k+1,k)...

Equitable Colorings Of Corona Multiproducts Of Graphs

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

A graph is equitably k-colorable if its vertices can be partitioned into k independent sets in such a way that the numbers of vertices in any two sets differ by at most one. The smallest k for which such a coloring exists is known as the equitable chromatic number of G and denoted by 𝜒=(G). It is known that the problem of computation of 𝜒=(G) is NP-hard in general and remains so for corona graphs. In this paper we consider the same model of coloring in the case of corona multiproducts...

Vertex coloring the square of outerplanar graphs of low degree

Similarity:

Vertex colorings of the square of an outerplanar graph have received a lot of attention recently. In this article we prove that the chromatic number of the square of an outerplanar graph of maximum degree Δ = 6 is 7. The optimal upper bound for the chromatic number of the square of an outerplanar graph of maximum degree Δ ≠ 6 is known. Hence, this mentioned chromatic number of 7 is the last and only unknown upper bound of the chromatic number in terms of Δ.
