چکیده

We discuss the following conjecture: If G = (V; E) is a-regular simple graph with an even number of vertices at most 22 then G is edge colorable. In this paper we show that the conjecture is true for large graphs if jV j < (2 ?)). We discuss related results.

Acyclic edge coloring of subcubic graphs

An acyclic edge coloring of a graph is a proper edge coloring such that there are no bichromatic cycles. The acyclic chromatic index of a graph is the minimum number k such that there is an acyclic edge coloring using k colors and is denoted by a(G). From a result of Burnstein it follows that all subcubic graphs are acyclically edge colorable using 5 colors. This result is tight since there are...

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...

Edge-coloring Vertex-weightings of Graphs

Let $G=(V(G),E(G))$ be a simple, finite and undirected graph of order $n$. A $k$-vertex weightings of a graph $G$ is a mapping $w: V(G) to {1, ldots, k}$. A $k$-vertex weighting induces an edge labeling $f_w: E(G) to N$ such that $f_w(uv)=w(u)+w(v)$. Such a labeling is called an {it edge-coloring k-vertex weightings} if $f_{w}(e)not= f_{w}(echr(chr(chr('39')39chr('39'))39chr(chr('39')39chr('39'...

Complexity results for minimum sum edge coloring

In the Minimum Sum Edge Coloring problem we have to assign positive integers to the edges of a graph such that adjacent edges receive different integers and the sum of the assigned numbers is minimal. We show that the problem is (a) NP-hard for planar bipartite graphs with maximum degree 3, (b) NP-hard for 3-regular planar graphs, (c) NP-hard for partial 2-trees, and (d) APX-hard for bipartite ...

Acyclic edge coloring of 2-degenerate graphs

An acyclic edge coloring of a graph is a proper edge coloring such that there are no bichromatic cycles. The acyclic chromatic index of a graph is the minimum number k such that there is an acyclic edge coloring using k colors and is denoted by a′(G). A graph is called 2-degenerate if any of its induced subgraph has a vertex of degree at most 2. The class of 2-degenerate graphs properly contain...
