چکیده

The following EREW PRAM algorithms for edge-colouring a general graph are presented: 1. an algorithm that finds a ðDþ dÞ-edge-colouring, 1pdoD; in Oððlog d þ ðD=dÞÞ log nÞ time, using n þ m processors; 2. an algorithm that finds a D1þe-edge-colouring, 0oeo1; in OðlogD log nÞ time, using nD1þe processors. r 2003 Elsevier Inc.

Acyclic Edge Colouring of Partial 2-Trees

An acyclic edge colouring of a graph is a proper edge colouring 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 colouring using k colours and it is denoted by a′(G). Here, we obtain tight estimates on a′(G) for nontrivial subclasses of the family of 2-degenerate graphs. Specifically, we obtain values of...

A 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...

Equitable neighbour-sum-distinguishing edge and total colourings

With any (not necessarily proper) edge k-colouring γ : E(G) −→ {1, . . . , k} of a graph G, one can associate a vertex colouring σγ given by σγ(v) = ∑ e∋v γ(e). A neighbour-sumdistinguishing edge k-colouring is an edge colouring whose associated vertex colouring is proper. The neighbour-sum-distinguishing index of a graph G is then the smallest k for which G admits a neighbour-sum-distinguishin...

Strong edge-colouring of sparse planar graphs

A strong edge-colouring of a graph is a proper edge-colouring where each colour class induces a matching. It is known that every planar graph with maximum degree∆ has a strong edge-colouring with at most 4∆ + 4 colours. We show that 3∆ + 1 colours suffice if the graph has girth 6, and 4∆ colours suffice if ∆ ≥ 7 or the girth is at least 5. In the last part of the paper, we raise some questions ...

Strong edge-colouring and induced matchings

A strong edge-colouring of a graph G is a proper edge-colouring such that every path of three edges uses three colours. An induced matching of a graph G is a subset I of edges of G such that the graph induced by the endpoints of I is a matching. In this paper, we prove the NP-completeness of strong 4, 5, and 6-edge-colouring and maximum induced matching in some subclasses of subcubic triangle-f...
