List star edge coloring of generalized Halin graphs

Strong edge-coloring for cubic Halin graphs

A strong edge-coloring of a graph G is a function that assigns to each edge a color such that two edges within distance two apart must receive different colors. The minimum number of colors used in a strong edge-coloring is the strong chromatic index of G. Lih and Liu [14] proved that the strong chromatic index of a cubic Halin graph, other than two special graphs, is 6 or 7. It remains an open...

Edge-coloring Vertex-weightings of Graphs

Let $G=(V(G),E(G))$ be a simple, finite and undirected graph of order $n$. A $k$-vertex weightings of a graph $G$ is a mapping $w: V(G) to {1, ldots, k}$. A $k$-vertex weighting induces an edge labeling $f_w: E(G) to N$ such that $f_w(uv)=w(u)+w(v)$. Such a labeling is called an {it edge-coloring k-vertex weightings} if $f_{w}(e)not= f_{w}(echr(chr(chr('39')39chr('39'))39chr(chr('39')39chr('39'...

List strong edge coloring of some classes of graphs

A strong edge coloring of a graph is a proper edge coloring in which every color class is an induced matching. The strong chromatic index of a graph is the minimum number of colors needed to obtain a strong edge coloring. In an analogous way, we can define the list version of strong edge coloring and list version of strong chromatic index. In this paper we prove that if G is a graph with maximu...

List-coloring embedded graphs

For any fixed surface Σ of genus g, we give an algorithm to decide whether a graph G of girth at least five embedded in Σ is colorable from an assignment of lists of size three in time O(|V (G)|). Furthermore, we can allow a subgraph (of any size) with at most s components to be precolored, at the expense of increasing the time complexity of the algorithm to
