In this note, we prove that for any integer n≥3 the b-chromatic number of the Kneser graph KG(m,n) is greater than or equal to . This gives an affirmative answer to a conjecture of [6]. 相似文献

Ohba has conjectured that if G is a k-chromatic graph with at most 2k+1 vertices, then the list chromatic number or choosability of G is equal to its chromatic number χ(G), which is k. It is known that this holds if G has independence number at most three. It is proved here that it holds if G has independence number at most five. In particular, and equivalently, it holds if G is a complete k-partite graph and each part has at most five vertices. 相似文献

Let G be a graph. We say that G is perfectly divisible if for each induced subgraph H of G, can be partitioned into A and B such that is perfect and . We use and to denote a path and a cycle on t vertices, respectively. For two disjoint graphs and , we use to denote the graph with vertex set and edge set , and use to denote the graph with vertex set and edge set . In this paper, we prove that (i) -free graphs are perfectly divisible, (ii) if G is -free with , (iii) if G is -free, and (iv) if G is -free. 相似文献

In this paper we consider the classical Erdős–Rényi model of random graphs Gn,p. We show that for p=p(n)n−3/4−δ, for any fixed δ>0, the chromatic number χ(Gn,p) is a.a.s. ℓ, ℓ+1, or ℓ+2, where ℓ is the maximum integer satisfying 2(ℓ−1)log(ℓ−1)p(n−1). 相似文献

Given a set D of a cyclic group C, we study the chromatic number of the circulant graph G(C,D) whose vertex set is C, and there is an edge ij whenever i−j∈D∪−D. For a fixed set D={a,b,c:a<b<c} of positive integers, we compute the chromatic number of circulant graphs G(ZN,D) for all N≥4bc. We also show that, if there is a total order of D such that the greatest common divisors of the initial segments form a decreasing sequence, then the chromatic number of G(Z,D) is at most 4. In particular, the chromatic number of a circulant graph on ZN with respect to a minimum generating set D is at most 4. The results are based on the study of the so-called regular chromatic number, an easier parameter to compute. The paper also surveys known results on the chromatic number of circulant graphs. 相似文献

The distance graph G(D) has the set of integers as vertices and two vertices are adjacent in G(D) if their difference is contained in the set D⊂Z. A conjecture of Zhu states that if the chromatic number of G(D) achieves its maximum value |D|+1 then the graph has a triangle. The conjecture is proven to be true if |D|?3. We prove that the chromatic number of a distance graph with D={a,b,c,d} is five only if either D={1,2,3,4k} or D={a,b,a+b,b-a}. This confirms a stronger version of Zhu's conjecture for |D|=4, namely, if the chromatic number achieves its maximum value then the graph contains K4. 相似文献

In this paper we discuss the existence of lower bounds for the chromatic number of graphs in terms of the average degree or the coloring number of graphs. We obtain a lower bound for the chromatic number of K1,t-free graphs in terms of the maximum degree and show that the bound is tight. For any tree T, we obtain a lower bound for the chromatic number of any K2,t-free and T-free graph in terms of its average degree. This answers affirmatively a modified version of Problem 4.3 in [T.R. Jensen, B. Toft, Graph Coloring Problems, Wiley, New York, 1995]. More generally, we discuss δ-bounded families of graphs and then we obtain a necessary and sufficient condition for a family of graphs to be a δ-bounded family in terms of its induced bipartite Turán number. Our last bound is in terms of forbidden induced even cycles in graphs; it extends a result in [S.E. Markossian, G.S. Gasparian, B.A. Reed, β-perfect graphs, J. Combin. Theory Ser. B 67 (1996) 1–11]. 相似文献

The Grundy (or First-Fit) chromatic number of a graph G is the maximum number of colors used by the First-Fit coloring of the graph G. In this paper we give upper bounds for the Grundy number of graphs in terms of vertex degrees, girth, clique partition number and for the line graphs. Next we show that if the Grundy number of a graph is large enough then the graph contains a subgraph of prescribed large girth and Grundy number. 相似文献

This paper introduces three new upper bounds on the chromatic number, without making any assumptions on the graph structure. The first one, ξ, is based on the number of edges and nodes, and is to be applied to any connected component of the graph, whereas ζ and η are based on the degree of the nodes in the graph. The computation complexity of the three-bound computation is assessed. Theoretical and computational comparisons are also made with five well-known bounds from the literature, which demonstrate the superiority of the new upper bounds. 相似文献

In this article we first give an upper bound for the chromatic number of a graph in terms of its degrees. This bound generalizes and modifies the bound given in 11 . Next, we obtain an upper bound of the order of magnitude for the coloring number of a graph with small K2,t (as subgraph), where n is the order of the graph. Finally, we give some bounds for chromatic number in terms of girth and book size. These bounds improve the best known bound, in terms of order and girth, for the chromatic number of a graph when its girth is an even integer. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
