چکیده

We give a simpler proof of Seymour’s Theorem on edge-coloring series-parallel multigraphs and derive a linear-time algorithm to check whether a given series-parallel multigraph can be colored with a given number of colors.

An Efficient Algorithm for Edge-Coloring Series-Parallel Multigraphs

Many combinatorial problems can be efficiently solved for series-parallel graphs or partial k-trees. The edge-coloring problem is one of a few combinatorial problems for which no efficient algorithms have been obtained for series-parallel multigraphs. This paper gives an algorithm which optimally edge-colors a given series-parallel multigraph in time O([V[z~), where V is the set of vertices and...

On Interval Non-Edge-Colorable Eulerian Multigraphs

An edge-coloring of a multigraph G with colors 1, . . . , t is called an interval t-coloring if all colors are used, and the colors of edges incident to any vertex of G are distinct and form an interval of integers. In this note, we show that all Eulerian multigraphs with an odd number of edges have no interval coloring. We also give some methods for constructing of interval non-edge-colorable ...

Chromatic Edge Strength of Some Multigraphs

The edge strength s(G) of a multigraph G is the minimum number of colors in a minimum sum edge coloring of G. We give closed formulas for the edge strength of bipartite multigraphs and multicycles. These are shown to be classes of multigraphs for which the edge strength is always equal to the chromatic index.
