چکیده

For a bounded integer , we wish to color all edges of a graph G so that any two edges within distance have different colors. Such a coloring is called a distance-edge-coloring or an -edge-coloring of G. The distance-edge-coloring problem is to compute the minimum number of colors required for a distance-edge-coloring of a given graph G. A partial k-tree is a graph with tree-width bounded by a fixed constant k. We first present a polynomial-time exact algorithm to solve the problem for partial k-trees, and then give a polynomial-time 2-approximation algorithm for planar graphs.

Edge-Coloring and f-Coloring for Various Classes of Graphs

In an ordinary edge-coloring of a graph each color appears at each vertex at most once. An f -coloring is a generalized edge-coloring in which each color appears at each vertex v at most f(v) times where f(v) is a positive integer assigned to v. This paper gives efficient sequential and parallel algorithms to find ordinary edge-colorings and f -colorings for various classes of graphs such as bi...

On Robust Colorings of Hamming-Distance Graphs

Hq(n, d) is defined as the graph with vertex set Zq and where two vertices are adjacent if their Hamming distance is at least d. The chromatic number of these graphs is presented for various sets of parameters (q, n, d). For the 4-colorings of the graphs H2(n, n − 1) a notion of robustness is introduced. It is based on the tolerance of swapping colors along an edge without destroying properness...

On Interval Edge Colorings of Biregular Bipartite Graphs With Small Vertex Degrees

A proper edge coloring of a graph with colors 1, 2, 3, . . . is called an interval coloring if the colors on the edges incident to each vertex form an interval of integers. A bipartite graph is (a, b)-biregular if every vertex in one part has degree a and every vertex in the other part has degree b. It has been conjectured that all such graphs have interval colorings. We prove that all (3, 6)-b...
