The graph coloring problem is one of the most famous problems in graph theory and has a large range of applications. It consists in coloring the vertices of an undirected graph with a given number of colors such that two adjacent vertices get different col ...
Polar graphs are a natural extension of some classes of graphs like bipartite graphs, split graphs and complements of bipartite graphs. A graph is (s,k)-polar if there exists a partition A,B of its vertex set such that A induces a complete s-partite graph ...
Graph Coloring is a very active field of research in graph theory as well as in the domain of the design of efficient heuristics to solve problems which, due to their computational complexity, cannot be solved exactly (no guarantee that an optimal solution ...
We consider the problem of finding in a graph a set R of edges to be colored in red so that there are maximum matchings having some prescribed numbers of red edges. For regular bipartite graphs with n nodes on each side, we give sufficient conditions f ...
We consider a multicast configuration with two sources, and translate the network code design problem to vertex coloring of an appropriately defined graph. This observation enables to derive code design algorithms and alphabet size bounds, as well as estab ...
We consider the problem of partitioning the node set of a graph into p cliques and k stable sets, namely the (p,k)-coloring problem. Results have been obtained for general graphs \cite{hellcomp}, chordal graphs \cite{hellchordal} and cacti for the case whe ...
Graph theory experienced a remarkable increase of interest among the scientific community during the last decades. The vertex coloring problem (Min Coloring) deserves a particular attention rince it has been able to capture a wide variety of applications. ...
We consider the coloring problem for mixed graphs, that is, for graphs containing edges and arcs. A mixed coloring c is a coloring such that for every edge [xi,xj], c(xi)=c(xj) and for every arc (xp,xq), $c(x_{p})
