A weighted graph polynomial from chromatic invariants of knots

Steven D. Noble, Dominic J. A. Welsh (1999)

Annales de l'institut Fourier

Similarity:

Motivated by the work of Chmutov, Duzhin and Lando on Vassiliev invariants, we define a polynomial on weighted graphs which contains as specialisations the weighted chromatic invariants but also contains many other classical invariants including the Tutte and matching polynomials. It also gives the symmetric function generalisation of the chromatic polynomial introduced by Stanley. We study its complexity and prove hardness results for very restricted classes of graphs.

Finding H -partitions efficiently

Simone Dantas, Celina M. H. de Figueiredo, Sylvain Gravier, Sulamita Klein (2005)

Similarity:

We study the concept of an H -partition of the vertex set of a graph G , which includes all vertex partitioning problems into four parts which we require to be nonempty with only external constraints according to the structure of a model graph H , with the exception of two cases, one that has already been classified as polynomial, and the other one remains unclassified. In the context of more general vertex-partition problems, the problems addressed in this paper have these properties:...

Decompositions of Plane Graphs Under Parity Constrains Given by Faces

Similarity:

An edge coloring of a plane graph G is facially proper if no two faceadjacent edges of G receive the same color. A facial (facially proper) parity edge coloring of a plane graph G is an (facially proper) edge coloring with the property that, for each color c and each face f of G, either an odd number of edges incident with f is colored with c, or color c does not occur on the edges of f. In this paper we deal with the following question: For which integers k does there exist a facial...
