چکیده

We investigate the following problem proposed by Alcatel. A satellite sends information to receivers on earth, each of which is listening on a chosen frequency. Technically, it is impossible for the satellite to precisely focus its signal onto a receiver. Part of the signal will be spread in an area around its destination and this creates noise for nearby receivers on the same frequency. However, a receiver is able to distinguish its signal if the sum of the noise does not become too large, i.e. does not exceed a certain threshold T . The problem

Channel Assignment and Improper Choosability of Graphs

We model a problem proposed by Alcatel, a satellite building company, using improper colourings of graphs. The relation between improper colourings and maximum average degree is underlined, which contributes to generalise and improve previous known results about improper colourings of planar graphs.

Acyclic improper colourings of graphs with bounded maximum degree

For graphs of bounded maximum degree, we consider acyclic t-improper colourings, that is, colourings in which each bipartite subgraph consisting of the edges between two colour classes is acyclic and each colour class induces a graph with maximum degree at most t. We consider the supremum, over all graphs of maximum degree at most d, of the acyclic t-improper chromatic number and provide t-impr...

Improper colouring of (random) unit disk graphs

For any graph G, the k-improper chromatic number χ(G) is the smallest number of colours used in a colouring of G such that each colour class induces a subgraph of maximum degree k. We investigate the ratio of the kimproper chromatic number to the clique number for unit disk graphs and random unit disk graphs to extend results of McDiarmid and Reed (1999); McDiarmid (2003) (where they considered...

Acyclic T -improper Colourings of Graphs with Bounded Maximum Degree

For graphs of bounded maximum degree, we consider acyclic t-improper colourings, that is, colourings in which each bipartite subgraph consisting of the edges between two colour classes is acyclic and each colour class induces a graph with maximum degree at most t. In the first part, we show that all subcubic graphs are acyclically 1-improperly 3-choosable, thus extending a result of Boiron, Sop...

Improper colouring of unit disk graphs

Motivated by a satellite communications problem, we consider a generalised colouringproblem on unit disk graphs. A colouring is k-improper if no vertex receives the same colouras k+1 of its neighbours. The k-improper chromatic number χ(G) the least number of coloursneeded in a k-improper colouring of a graph G. The main subject of this work is analysingthe complexity of computin...
