Polynomial Cases for the Vertex Coloring Problem
نویسندگان
چکیده
The computational complexity of the Vertex Coloring problem is known for all hereditary classes of graphs defined by forbidding two connected five-vertex induced subgraphs, except for seven cases. We prove the polynomial-time solvability of four of these problems: for (P5, dart)-free graphs, (P5, banner)-free graphs, (P5, bull)-free graphs, and (fork, bull)-free graphs.

Probabilistic Coloring of Bipartite and Split Graphs
We revisit in this paper the probabilistic coloring problem ( ) and focus ourselves on bipartite and split graphs. We first give some general properties dealing with the optimal solution. We then show that the unique 2-coloring achieves approximation ratio 2 in bipartite graphs under any system of vertex-probabilities and propose a polynomial algorithm achieving tight appro...
متن کاملOn coloring problems with local constraints
We show complexity results for some generalizations of the graph coloring problem on two classes of perfect graphs, namely clique trees and unit interval graphs. We deal with the μ-coloring problem (upper bounds for the color on each vertex), the precoloring extension problem (a subset of vertices colored beforehand), and a problem generalizing both of them, the (γ, μ)-coloring problem (lower a...
متن کاملMax-Coloring Paths: Tight Bounds and Extensions
The max-coloring problem is to compute a legal coloring of the vertices of a graph G = (V,E) with vertex weights w such that ∑k i=1 maxv∈Ci w(vi) is minimized, where C1, . . . , Ck are the various color classes. For general graphs, max-coloring is as hard as the classical vertex coloring problem, a special case of the former where vertices have unit weight. In fact, in some cases it can even be...
متن کاملJust chromatic exellence in fuzzy graphs
A fuzzy graph is a symmetric binary fuzzy relation on a fuzzy subset. The concept of fuzzy sets and fuzzy relations was introduced by L.A.Zadeh in 1965cite{zl} and further studiedcite{ka}. It was Rosenfeldcite{ra} who considered fuzzy relations on fuzzy sets and developed the theory of fuzzy graphs in 1975. The concepts of fuzzy trees, blocks, bridges and cut nodes in fuzzy graph has been studi...
متن کاملDifferential Approximation Algorithms for Some Combinatorial Optimization Problems
We use a new approximation measure, the differential approximation ratio, to derive polynomial-time approximation algorithms for minimum set covering (for both weighted and unweighted cases), minimum graph coloring and bin-packing. We also propose differentialapproximation-ratio preserving reductions linking minimum coloring, minimum vertex covering by cliques, minimum edge covering by cliques ...
