No Quantum Brooks' Theorem
نویسنده
چکیده
First, I introduce quantum graph theory. I also discuss a known lower bound on the independence numbers and derive from it an upper bound on the chromatic numbers of quantum graphs. Then, I construct a family of quantum graphs that can be described as tropical, cyclical, and commutative. I also define a step logarithm function and express with it the bounds on quantum graph invariants in closed form. Finally, I obtain an upper bound on the independence numbers and a lower bound on the chromatic numbers of the constructed quantum graphs that are similar in form to the existing bounds. I also show that the constructed family contains graphs of any valence with arbitrarily high chromatic numbers and conclude by it that quantum graph colorings are quite different from classical graph colorings.

Brooks' Vertex-Colouring Theorem in Linear Time
Brooks’ Theorem [R. L. Brooks, On Colouring the Nodes of a Network, Proc. Cambridge Philos. Soc. 37:194-197, 1941] states that every graph G with maximum degree ∆, has a vertex-colouring with ∆ colours, unless G is a complete graph or an odd cycle, in which case ∆ + 1 colours are required. Lovász [L. Lovász, Three short proofs in graph theory, J. Combin. Theory Ser. 19:269-271, 1975] gives an a...

متن کاملA note on Brooks' theorem for triangle-free graphs
For the class of triangle-free graphs Brooks’ Theorem can be restated in terms of forbidden induced subgraphs, i.e. let G be a triangle-free and K1,r+1-free graph. Then G is r-colourable unless G is isomorphic to an odd cycle or a complete graph with at most two vertices. In this note we present an improvement of Brooks’ Theorem for triangle-free and rsunshade-free graphs. Here, an r-sunshade (...
متن کاملAn inequality for the group chromatic number of a graph
We give an inequality for the group chromatic number of a graph as an extension of Brooks’ Theorem. Moreover, we obtain a structural theorem for graphs satisfying the equality and discuss applications of the theorem. Keywords— Brooks’ Theorem, Group coloring, Group chromatic number.
