چکیده
A proper edge coloring of a graph G is called acyclic if there is no 2-colored cycle in G. The acyclic edge chromatic number of G is the least number of colors in an acyclic edge coloring of G. In this paper, it is proved that the acyclic edge chromatic number of a planar graph G is at most ∆(G)+2 if G contains no i-cycles, 4≤ i≤ 8, or any two 3-cycles are not incident with a common vertex and G contains no i-cycles, i = 4 and 5.

متن کاملList Edge and List Total Colorings of Planar Graphs without 6-cycles with Chord
Giving a planar graph G, let χl(G) and χ ′′ l (G) denote the list edge chromatic number and list total chromatic number of G respectively. It is proved that if a planar graph G without 6-cycles with chord, then χl(G) ≤ ∆(G) + 1 and χ ′′ l (G) ≤ ∆(G) + 2 where ∆(G) ≥ 6.
متن کاملAcyclic 3-Colorings and 4-Colorings of Planar Graph Subdivisions
An acyclic coloring of a graph G is an assignment of colors to the vertices of G such that no two adjacent vertices receive the same color and every cycle in G has vertices of at least three different colors. An acyclic k-coloring of G is an acyclic coloring of G with at most k colors. It is NP-complete to decide whether a planar graph G with maximum degree four admits an acyclic 3-coloring [1]...
متن کاملAcyclic colorings of locally planar graphs
It will be shown that locally planar graphs are acyclically 8-colorable. In this result, a new notion of local planarity based on homology instead of the homotopy is used. This gives weaker requirement than the usual large edge-width condition.
متن کاملAbout acyclic edge colourings of planar graphs
Let G = (V,E) be any finite simple graph. A mapping C : E → [k] is called an acyclic edge k-colouring of G, if any two adjacent edges have different colours and there are no bichromatic cycles in G. In other words, for every pair of distinct colours i and j, the subgraph induced by all the edges which have either colour i or j is acyclic. The smallest number k of colours, such that G has an acy...
