Edge-colouring of regular graphs of large degree

چکیده
We consider the following conjecture: Let G be a k-regular simple graph with an even number n of vertices. If k ≥ n/2 then G is k-edge-colourable. We show that this conjecture is true for graphs that are join of two graphs and we provide a polynomial time algorithm for finding a k-edge-colouring of these graphs. c © 2007 Elsevier B.V.

CERTAIN TYPES OF EDGE m-POLAR FUZZY GRAPHS
In this research paper, we present a novel frame work for handling $m$-polar information by combining the theory of $m-$polar fuzzy sets with graphs. We introduce certain types of edge regular $m-$polar fuzzy graphs and edge irregular $m-$polar fuzzy graphs. We describe some useful properties of edge regular, strongly edge irregular and strongly edge totally irregular $m-$polar fuzzy graphs. W...
متن کاملChromatic index of graphs with no cycle with a unique chord
The class C of graphs that do not contain a cycle with a unique chord was recently studied by Trotignon and Vušković [26], who proved strong structure results for these graphs. In the present paper we investigate how these structure results can be applied to solve the edgecolouring problem in the class. We give computational complexity results for the edge-colouring problem restricted to C and ...
متن کاملInterval Colourings of Some Regular Graphs
Let G = (V,E) be an undirected graph without loops and multiple edges [1], V (G) and E(G) be the sets of vertices and edges of G, respectively. The degree of a vertex x ∈ V (G) is denoted by dG(x), the maximum degree of a vertex of G-by ∆(G), and the chromatic index [2] of G-by χ(G). A graph is regular, if all its vertices have the same degree. If α is a proper edge colouring of the graph G [3]...

متن کاملA greedy method for edge-colouring odd maximum degree doubly chordal graphs
We describe a greedy vertex colouring method which can be used to colour optimally the edge set of certain chordal graphs. This new heuristic yields an exact edge-colouring algorithm for odd maximumdegree doubly chordal graphs. This method shows that any such graph G can be edge-coloured with maximum degree (G) colours, i.e., all these graphs are Class 1. In addition, this method gives a simple...
