On the list chromatic index of nearly bipartite multigraphs
Galvin ([7]) proved that every k-edge-colorable bipartite multigraph is kedge-choosable. Slivnik ([11]) gave a streamlined proof of Galvin's result. A multigraph G is said to be nearly bipartite if it contains a special vertex Vs such that G Vs is a bipartite multigraph. We use the technique in Slivnik's proof to obtain a list coloring analog of Vizing's theorem ([12]) for nearly bipartite mult...
متن کاملOn the upper chromatic index of a multigraph
We consider the colorings of the edges of a multigraph in such a way that every non-pendant vertex is incident to at least two edges of the same color. The maximum number of colors that can be used in such colorings is the upper chromatic index of a multigraph G, denoted by χ̄(G). We prove that if a multigraph G has n vertices, m edges, p pendant vertices and maximum c disjoint cycles, then χ̄(G)...
متن کاملThe list - chromatic index of K 8 and K 10
In [4], Cariolaro et al. demonstrated how colorability problems can be approached numerically by the use of computer algebra systems and the Combinatorial Nullstellensatz. In particular, they verified a case of the List Coloring Conjecture by proving that the list-chromatic index of K6 is 5. In this short note, we show that using the coefficient formula of Schauz [16] is much more efficient tha...
متن کاملThe distinguishing chromatic number of bipartite graphs of girth at least six
The distinguishing number $D(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the least integer $d$ such that $G$ has a vertex labeling with $d$ labels that is preserved only by a trivial automorphism. The distinguishing chromatic number $chi_{D}(G)$ of $G$ is defined similarly, where, in addition, $f$ is assumed to be a proper labeling. We prove that if $G$ is a bipartite graph of girth at least six with the maximum ...
متن کاملEdge-choosability of multicircuits
A multicircuit is a multigraph whose underlying simple graph is a circuit (a connected 2-regular graph). The List-Colouring Conjecture (LCC) is that every multigraph G has edgechoosability (list chromatic index) ch’(G) equal to its chromatic index x’(G). In this paper the LCC is proved first for multicircuits, and then, building on results of Peterson and Woodall, for any multigraph G in which ...
