چکیده

A k-frugal colouring of a graph G is a proper colouring of the vertices of G such that no colour appears more than k times in the neighbourhood of a vertex. This type of colouring was introduced by Hind, Molloy and Reed in 1997. In this paper, we study the frugal chromatic number of planar graphs, planar graphs with large girth, and outerplanar graphs, and relate this parameter with several well-studied colourings, such as colouring of the square, cyclic colouring, and L(p, q)-labelling. We also study frugal edge-colourings of multigraphs.

Linear and 2-Frugal Choosability of Graphs of Small Maximum Average Degree

A proper vertex colouring of a graph G is 2-frugal (resp. linear) if the graph induced by the vertices of any two colour classes is of maximum degree 2 (resp. is a forest of paths). A graph G is 2-frugally (resp. linearly) L-colourable if for a given list assignment L : V (G) → 2, there exists a 2-frugal (resp. linear) colouring c of G such that c(v) ∈ L(v) for all v ∈ V (G). If G is 2-frugally...

Acyclic and Frugal Colourings of Graphs

Given a graph G = (V,E), a proper vertex colouring of V is t-frugal if no colour appears more than t times in any neighbourhood and is acyclic if each of the bipartite graphs consisting of the edges between any two colour classes is acyclic. For graphs of bounded maximum degree, Hind, Molloy and Reed [14] studied proper t-frugal colourings and Yuster [19] studied acyclic proper 2-frugal colouri...

Frugal, acyclic and star colourings of graphs

Given a graph G = (V,E), a vertex colouring of V is t-frugal if no colour appears more than t times in any neighbourhood and is acyclic if each of the bipartite graphs consisting of the edges between any two colour classes is acyclic. For graphs of bounded maximum degree, Hind, Molloy and Reed [14] studied proper t-frugal colourings and Yuster [22] studied acyclic proper 2-frugal colourings. In...

Asymptotically optimal frugal colouring

We prove that every graph with maximum degree ∆ can be properly (∆ + 1)-coloured so that no colour appears more than O(log∆/ log log∆) times in the neighbourhood of any vertex. This is best possible up to the constant factor in the O(−) term. We also provide an efficient algorithm to produce such a colouring.

Filling the Complexity Gaps for Colouring Planar and Bounded Degree Graphs

We consider a natural restriction of the List Colouring problem: k-Regular List Colouring, which corresponds to the List Colouring problem where every list has size exactly k. We give a complete classification of the complexity of k-Regular List Colouring restricted to planar graphs, planar bipartite graphs, planar triangle-free graphs and to planar graphs with no 4-cycles and no 5-cycles. We a...
