稀疏图的强色指数

Strong chromatic index of sparse graphs

Michał Dębski, Jarosław Grytczuk, Małgorzata Śleszyńska-Nowak

摘要:

图$G$的边染色是强的,如果每个色类都是$G$的导出匹配. $G$的强色指数,记为$χ_{s}^{\prime}(G)$,是$G$的强边染色中颜色的最少数目。本文证明了对每一个$k$ -退化图$G$,都有$χ_{s}^{\prime}(G)\leq (4k-1)Δ(G)-k(2k+1)+1$.这证实了Chang和Narayanan最近提出的强版本猜想[3]。我们的方法还允许改进[3]中无弦图的上界。对于任意无弦图$G$,我们得到了该$% χ_{s}^{\prime}(G)\leq 4Δ-3$。这两个界限仍然有效的列表版本的强边着色这些图。

英文摘要:

A coloring of the edges of a graph $G$ is strong if each color class is an induced matching of $G$. The strong chromatic index of $G$, denoted by $χ_{s}^{\prime}(G)$, is the least number of colors in a strong edge coloring of $G$. In this note we prove that $χ_{s}^{\prime}(G)\leq (4k-1)Δ(G)-k(2k+1)+1$ for every $k$-degenerate graph $G$. This confirms the strong version of conjecture stated recently by Chang and Narayanan [3]. Our approach allows also to improve the upper bound from [3] for chordless graphs. We get that $% χ_{s}^{\prime}(G)\leq 4Δ-3$ for any chordless graph $G$. Both bounds remain valid for the list version of the strong edge coloring of these graphs.
