Colouring perfect graphs with bounded clique number

A graph is perfect if the chromatic number of every induced subgraph equals the size of its largest clique, and an algorithm of Grötschel, Lovász, and Schrijver [9] from 1988 finds an optimal colouring of a perfect graph in polynomial time. But this algorithm uses the ellipsoid method, and it is a well-known open question to construct a “combinatorial” polynomial-time algorithm that yields an o...

Colouring graphs with bounded generalized colouring number

Given a graph G and a positive integer p, χp(G) is the minimum number of colours needed to colour the vertices of G so that for any i ≤ p, any subgraph H of G of tree-depth i gets at least i colours. This paper proves an upper bound for χp(G) in terms of the k-colouring number colk(G) of G for k = 2p−2. Conversely, for each integer k, we also prove an upper bound for colk(G) in terms of χk+2(G)...

Clique and chromatic number of circular-perfect graphs

A main result of combinatorial optimization is that clique and chromatic number of a perfect graph are computable in polynomial time (Grötschel, Lovász and Schrijver 1981). Circular-perfect graphs form a well-studied superclass of perfect graphs. We extend the above result for perfect graphs by showing that clique and chromatic number of a circularperfect graph are computable in polynomial time...

On clique-perfect and K-perfect graphs

A graph G is clique-perfect if the cardinality of a maximum cliqueindependent set of H is equal to the cardinality of a minimum cliquetransversal of H, for every induced subgraph H of G. When equality holds for every clique subgraph of G, the graph is c–clique-perfect. A graph G is K-perfect when its clique graph K(G) is perfect. In this work, relations are described among the classes of perfec...

chromatic and clique numbers of a class of perfect graphs

let $p$ be a prime number and $n$ be a positive integer. the graph $g_p(n)$ is a graph with vertex set $[n]={1,2,ldots ,n}$, in which there is an arc from $u$ to $v$ if and only if $uneq v$ and $pnmid u+v$. in this paper it is shown that $g_p(n)$ is a perfect graph. in addition, an explicit formula for the chromatic number of such graph is given.
