The fractional chromatic number of the plane
The chromatic number of the plane is the chromatic number of the uncountably infinite graph that has as its vertices the points of the plane and has an edge between two points if their distance is 1. This chromatic number is denoted χ(R). The problem was introduced in 1950, and shortly thereafter it was proved that 4 ≤ χ(R) ≤ 7. These bounds are both easy to prove, but after more than 60 years ...
متن کاملThe fractional chromatic number of mycielski's graphs
The most familiar construction of graphs whose clique number is much smaller than their chromatic number is due to Mycielski, who constructed a sequence G n of triangle-free graphs with (G n ) = n. In this note, we calculate the fractional chromatic number of G n and show that this sequence of numbers satis es the unexpected recurrence a n+1 = a n + 1 a n .
متن کاملThe locating chromatic number of the join of graphs
Let $f$ be a proper $k$-coloring of a connected graph $G$ and $Pi=(V_1,V_2,ldots,V_k)$ be an ordered partition of $V(G)$ into the resulting color classes. For a vertex $v$ of $G$, the color code of $v$ with respect to $Pi$ is defined to be the ordered $k$-tuple $c_{{}_Pi}(v)=(d(v,V_1),d(v,V_2),ldots,d(v,V_k))$, where $d(v,V_i)=min{d(v,x):~xin V_i}, 1leq ileq k$. If distinct...
متن کاملThe locating-chromatic number for Halin graphs
Let G be a connected graph. Let f be a proper k -coloring of G and Π = (R_1, R_2, . . . , R_k) bean ordered partition of V (G) into color classes. For any vertex v of G, define the color code c_Π(v) of v with respect to Π to be a k -tuple (d(v, R_1), d(v, R_2), . . . , d(v, R_k)), where d(v, R_i) is the min{d(v, x)|x ∈ R_i}. If distinct vertices have distinct color codes, then we call f a locat...
متن کاملDichromatic Number and Fractional Chromatic Number
The dichromatic number of a graph G is the maximum integer k such that there exists an orientation of the edges of G such that for every partition of the vertices into fewer than k parts, at least one of the parts must contain a directed cycle under this orientation. In 1979, Erdős and NeumannLara conjectured that if the dichromatic number of a graph is bounded, so is its chromatic number. We m...
