Triangle-free intersection graphs of line segments with large chromatic number

In the 1970s Erdos asked whether the chromatic number of intersection graphs of line segments in the plane is bounded by a function of their clique number. We show the answer is no. Specifically, for each positive integer k we construct a triangle-free fam ...

Non-linear Low-rank and Sparse Representation for Hyperspectral Image Analysis

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Devis Tuia, Volker Gass, Frank Grégoire Jean de Morsier, Maurice Borgeaud

In this paper, we tackle the problem of unsupervised classification of hyperspectral images. We propose a clustering method based on graphs representing the data structure, which is assumed to be an union of multiple manifolds. The method constraints the p ...

Triangle-Free Geometric Intersection Graphs with Large Chromatic Number

Bartosz Maria Walczak, Michal Lason

Several classical constructions illustrate the fact that the chromatic number of a graph may be arbitrarily large compared to its clique number. However, until very recently no such construction was known for intersection graphs of geometric objects in the ...

Coloring K-k-free intersection graphs of geometric objects in the plane

János Pach

The intersection graph of a collection C of sets is the graph on the vertex set C, in which C-1 . C-2 is an element of C are joined by an edge if and only if C-1 boolean AND C-2 not equal empty set. Erdos conjectured that the chromatic number of triangle-f ...

Coloring fuzzy circular interval graphs

Friedrich Eisenbrand, Martin Niemeier

Given a graph G with nonnegative node labels w, a multiset of stable sets S_1,...,S_k\subseteq V(G) such that each vertex v \in V(G) is contained in w(v) many of these stable sets is called a weighted coloring. The weighted coloring number \chi_w(G) is the ...

Efficient graph planarization in sensor networks and local routing algorithm

Florian Huc

In this paper, we propose an efficient planarization algorithm and a routing algorithm dedicated to Unit Disk Graphs whose nodes are localized using the Virtual Raw Anchor Coordinate system (VRAC). Our first algorithm computes a planar 2-spanner under ligh ...

Simplex solids in SU(N) Heisenberg models on the kagome and checkerboard lattices

Frédéric Mila, Karlo Penc

We present a numerical study of the SU(N) Heisenberg model with the fundamental representation at each site for the kagome lattice (for N = 3) and the checkerboard lattice (for N = 4), which are the line graphs of the honeycomb and square lattices and thus ...

String graphs and incomparability graphs

János Pach

Given a collection C of curves in the plane, its string graph is defined as the graph with vertex set C, in which two curves in C are adjacent if and only if they intersect. Given a partially ordered set (P,

On coloring problems with local constraints

Yuri Faenza

We deal with some generalizations of the graph coloring problem on classes of perfect graphs. Namely we consider the μ-coloring problem (upper bounds for the color on each vertex), the precoloring extension problem (a subset of vertices colored beforehand) ...

Minimum clique partition in unit disk graphs

János Pach

The minimum clique partition (MCP) problem is that of partitioning the vertex set of a given graph into a minimum number of cliques. Given n points in the plane, the corresponding unit disk graph (UDG) has these points as vertices, and edges connecting poi ...
