2020
arXiv
pre-print
A facial-parity edge-coloring of a 2-edge-connected plane graph is a facially-proper edge-coloring in which every face is incident with zero or an odd number of edges of each color. ...
Czap and Jendroľ (in Facially-constrained colorings of plane graphs: A survey, Discrete Math. 340 (2017), 2691–2703), conjectured that 10 colors suffice in both colorings. ...
In regards with facial WORM vertex-coloring of plane graphs, it is known that not all plane graphs have a (P 3 , P 3 )-WORM coloring. ...

The Game Coloring Number of Planar Graphs
1999
Journal of combinatorial theory. Series B (Print)
This paper discusses a variation of the game chromatic number of a graph: the game coloring number. This parameter provides an upper bound for the game chromatic number of a graph. ...
We show that the game coloring number of a planar graph is at most 19. ...
The proof in this paper only uses a very simple property of planar graphs: the existence of a``light edge'' in planar graphs with minimum degree 3, which follows easily from Euler Formula. ...

bound of 3n 8 edges for any plane graph. 2. ...
An edge guard set of a plane graph G is a subset Γ of edges of G such that each face of G is incident to an endpoint of an edge in Γ. Such a set is said to guard G. ...
We need to color its vertices with two colors, say white and blue, such that every face contains (i) vertices of both colors and (ii) an edge whose endpoints have the same color. ...

A graph is locally irregular if the neighbors of every vertex v have degrees distinct from the degree of v. locally irregular edge-coloring of a graph G is an (improper) edge-coloring such that the graph ...
In addition, we also prove that 4 colors suffice for locally irregular edge-coloring of any subcubic graph. ...

This paper introduces a variant of the classical edge coloring problem in graphs that can be applied to an offline scheduling problem for crossbar switches. ...
We show that the problem is NP-complete, develop three lower bounds bounds on the optimal solution value and evaluate the performance of several approximation algorithms, both analytically and experimentally ...
For each edge in E that is colored k − 1, we include a chain of three edges, with the inner edge assigned a lower bound of k, while the outer two edges are assigned lower bounds of k − 1. ...
