关于色数与最小割

On Chromatic Number and Minimum Cut

Meysam Alishahi, Hossein Hajiabolhassan

摘要:

对于图$G$,树图${\cal T}_{G,t}$具有$G$的所有以$t$为顶点集的树的子图,并且如果两个树的子图是边不相交的,则它们是邻居.此外,$G$的$r^{th}$切割数是将$G$的顶点集划分成两部分的部分之间的边的最小数目,使得每个部分具有至少$r$的大小。证明了如果$t=(1-o(1))n$和$n$足够大,则对于任意一个顶点为$n$的稠密图$G$,树图${\cal T}_{G,t}$的色数等于$G$的$(n-t+1)^{th}$割数.特别地,作为结果,我们证明了,如果$n$是足够大的$G$是一个稠密图,那么生成树图${\cal T}_{G,n}$的色数等于$G$的最小割的大小。证明方法是基于交替图兰数的启发塔克引理,一个等价的组合版本的Borsuk-Ulam定理。

英文摘要:

For a graph $G$, the tree graph ${\cal T}_{G,t}$ has all tree subgraphs of $G$ with $t$ vertices as vertex set and two tree subgraphs are neighbors if they are edge-disjoint. Also, the $r^{th}$ cut number of $G$ is the minimum number of edges between parts of a partition of vertex set of $G$ into two parts such that each part has size at least $r$. We show that if $t=(1-o(1))n$ and $n$ is large enough, then for any dense graph $G$ with $n$ vertices, the chromatic number of the tree graph ${\cal T}_{G,t}$ is equal to the $(n-t+1)^{th}$ cut number of $G$. In particular, as a consequence, we prove that if $n$ is large enough and $G$ is a dense graph, then the chromatic number of the spanning tree graph ${\cal T}_{G,n}$ is equal to the size of the minimum cut of $G$. The proof method is based on alternating Turán number inspired by Tucker's lemma, an equivalent combinatorial version of the Borsuk-Ulam theorem.
