可平面图的着色计数锥

Coloring count cones of planar graphs

Zdeněk Dvořák, Bernard Lidický

摘要:

对于外表面由循环$C$界定的平面近三角剖分$G$,令$n^\star_G$表示这样的函数,该函数为$C$的每个$4$着色$ψ$分配$ψ$扩展到$G$的$4$着色的方式的数目。块计数归约论证(它是在四色定理的尝试证明中发展起来的)等价于这样的陈述:函数$n^\star_G$属于从$C$到实数的$4$ -着色的所有函数的空间中的某个锥。我们研究了$|C|=5$的这个锥的性质,提出了一个加强四色定理的猜想,并给出了支持这个猜想的证据。

英文摘要:

For a plane near-triangulation $G$ with the outer face bounded by a cycle $C$, let $n^\star_G$ denote the function that to each $4$-coloring $ψ$ of $C$ assigns the number of ways $ψ$ extends to a $4$-coloring of $G$. The block-count reducibility argument (which has been developed in connection with attempted proofs of the Four Color Theorem) is equivalent to the statement that the function $n^\star_G$ belongs to a certain cone in the space of all functions from $4$-colorings of $C$ to real numbers. We investigate the properties of this cone for $|C|=5$, formulate a conjecture strengthening the Four Color Theorem, and present evidence supporting this conjecture.
