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 it is denoted by a′(G). From a result of Burnstein it follows that all subcubic graphs are acyclically edge colorable using five colors. This result is tight since there are 3-regular graphs which require five colors. In this paper we prove that any non-regular connected graph of maximum degree 3 is acyclically edge colorable using at most four colors. This result is tight since all edge maximal non-regular connected graphs of maximum degree 3 require four colors. 相似文献

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). It was conjectured by Alon, Sudakov, and Zaks that for any simple and finite graph G, a′(G)?Δ + 2, where Δ=Δ(G) denotes the maximum degree of G. We prove the conjecture for connected graphs with Δ(G)?4, with the additional restriction that m?2n?1, where n is the number of vertices and m is the number of edges in G. Note that for any graph G, m?2n, when Δ(G)?4. It follows that for any graph G if Δ(G)?4, then a′(G)?7. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Graph Theory 61: 192–209, 2009 相似文献

A proper coloring of the edges of a graph G is called acyclic if there is no 2‐colored cycle in G. The acyclic edge chromatic number of G, denoted by a′(G), is the least number of colors in an acyclic edge coloring of G. For certain graphs G, a′(G) ≥ Δ(G) + 2 where Δ(G) is the maximum degree in G. It is known that a′(G) ≤ 16 Δ(G) for any graph G. We prove that there exists a constant c such that a′(G) ≤ Δ(G) + 2 for any graph G whose girth is at least cΔ(G) log Δ(G), and conjecture that this upper bound for a′(G) holds for all graphs G. We also show that a′(G) ≤ Δ + 2 for almost all Δ‐regular graphs. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Graph Theory 37: 157–167, 2001 相似文献

A graph is 1-planar if it can be drawn on the plane so that each edge is crossed by at most one other edge. In this paper, it is proved that each 1-planar graph with maximum degree Δ is (Δ+1)-edge-choosable and (Δ+2)- total-choosable if Δ≥16, and is Δ-edge-choosable and (Δ+1)-total-choosable if Δ≥21. The second conclusion confirms the list coloring conjecture for the class of 1-planar graphs with large maximum degree. 相似文献

A proper edge coloring of a graph G is said to be acyclic if there is no bicolored cycle in G.The acyclic edge chromatic number of G,denoted byχ′a(G),is the smallest number of colors in an acyclic edge coloring of G.Let G be a planar graph with maximum degree.In this paper,we show thatχ′a(G)+2,if G has no adjacent i-and j-cycles for any i,j∈{3,4,5},which implies a result of Hou,Liu and Wu(2012);andχ′a(G)+3,if G has no adjacent i-and j-cycles for any i,j∈{3,4,6}. 相似文献

如果图G可以嵌入在平面上,使得每条边最多被交叉1次,则称其为1-可平面图,该平面嵌入称为1-平面图.由于1-平面图G中的交叉点是图G的某两条边交叉产生的,故图G中的每个交叉点c都可以与图G中的四个顶点(即产生c的两条交叉边所关联的四个顶点)所构成的点集建立对应关系,称这个对应关系为θ.对于1-平面图G中任何两个不同的交叉点c_1与c_2(如果存在的话),如果|θ(c_1)∩θ(c_2)|≤1,则称图G是NIC-平面图;如果|θ(c_1)∩θ(c_2)|=0,即θ(c_1)∩θ(c_2)=?,则称图G是IC-平面图.如果图G可以嵌入在平面上,使得其所有顶点都分布在图G的外部面上,并且每条边最多被交叉一次,则称图G为外1-可平面图.满足上述条件的外1-可平面图的平面嵌入称为外1-平面图.现主要介绍关于以上四类图在染色方面的结果. 相似文献

An acyclic edge coloring of a graph is a proper edge coloring such that there are no bichromatic (2-colored) 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). Let Δ=Δ(G) denote the maximum degree of a vertex in a graph G. A complete bipartite graph with n vertices on each side is denoted by Kn,n. Alon, McDiarmid and Reed observed that a′(Kp−1,p−1)=p for every prime p. In this paper we prove that a′(Kp,p)≤p+2=Δ+2 when p is prime. Basavaraju, Chandran and Kummini proved that a′(Kn,n)≥n+2=Δ+2 when n is odd, which combined with our result implies that a′(Kp,p)=p+2=Δ+2 when p is an odd prime. Moreover we show that if we remove any edge from Kp,p, the resulting graph is acyclically Δ+1=p+1-edge-colorable. 相似文献

Acyclic chromatic indices of planar graphs with large girth 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
An acyclic edge coloring of a graph G is a proper edge coloring such that no bichromatic cycles are produced. The acyclic chromatic index a′(G) of G is the smallest k such that G has an acyclic edge coloring using k colors.In this paper, we prove that every planar graph G with girth g(G) and maximum degree Δ has a′(G)=Δ if there exists a pair (k,m)∈{(3,11),(4,8),(5,7),(8,6)} such that G satisfies Δ≥k and g(G)≥m. 相似文献

A graph is 1-toroidal, if it can be embedded in the torus so that each edge is crossed by at most one other edge. In this paper, it is proved that every 1-toroidal graph with maximum degree Δ≥ 10 is of class one in terms of edge coloring. Meanwhile, we show that there exist class two 1-toroidal graphs with maximum degree Δ for each Δ≤ 8. 相似文献

A proper edge coloring of a graph G is called acyclic if there is no 2‐colored cycle in G. The acyclic edge chromatic number of G, denoted by χ(G), is the least number of colors in an acyclic edge coloring of G. In this paper, we determine completely the acyclic edge chromatic number of outerplanar graphs. The proof is constructive and supplies a polynomial time algorithm to acyclically color the edges of any outerplanar graph G using χ(G) colors. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

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 contains series–parallel graphs, outerplanar graphs, non ? regular subcubic graphs, planar graphs of girth at least 6 and circle graphs of girth at least 5 as subclasses. It was conjectured by Alon, Sudakov and Zaks (and much earlier by Fiamcik) that a′(G)?Δ + 2, where Δ = Δ(G) denotes the maximum degree of the graph. We prove the conjecture for 2‐degenerate graphs. In fact we prove a stronger bound: we prove that if G is a 2‐degenerate graph with maximum degree Δ, then a′(G)?Δ + 1. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Graph Theory 69: 1–27, 2012 相似文献

Let Δ denote the maximum degree of a graph. Fiam?ík first and then Alon et al. again conjectured that every graph is acyclically edge (Δ+2)-colorable. Even for planar graphs, this conjecture remains open. It is known that every triangle-free planar graph is acyclically edge (Δ+5)-colorable. This paper proves that every planar graph without intersecting triangles is acyclically edge (Δ+4)-colorable. 相似文献

A proper edge coloring of a graph G is called acyclic if there is no 2-colored cycle in G. The acyclic edge chromatic number of G, denoted by a′(G), is the least number of colors in an acyclic edge coloring of G. Alon et al. conjectured that a′(G) ⩽ Δ(G) + 2 for any graphs. For planar graphs G with girth g(G), we prove that a′(G) ⩽ max{2Δ(G) − 2, Δ(G) + 22} if g(G) ⩾ 3, a′(G) ⩽ Δ(G) + 2 if g(G) ⩾ 5, a′(G) ⩽ Δ(G) + 1 if g(G) ⩾ 7, and a′(G) = Δ(G) if g(G) ⩾ 16 and Δ(G) ⩾ 3. For series-parallel graphs G, we have a′(G) ⩽ Δ(G) + 1.
