关于有向图和$2$-边着色图到自反目标的非正常同态的存在性与不存在性

On the existence and non-existence of improper homomorphisms of oriented and $2$-edge-coloured graphs to reflexive targets

Christopher Duffy, Sonja Linghui Shan

AI总结:

本文研究有向图和2-边着色图到自反目标的非正常同态,完全分类了树宽为2的情形,证明判定问题为NP完全,并为平面图定向色数问题提供新工具。

摘要:

我们考虑到自反有向图的非平凡同态,其中某些相邻顶点对具有相同的像。利用有向图的凸性概念,我们研究了那些不承认此类同态的有向图。我们完全分类了树宽为$2$且不承认此类同态的有向图,并证明判定一个图是否承认一个不承认此类同态的定向是NP完全的。我们对$2$-边着色图证明了类似的结果。我们将关于有向图的结果应用于平面图定向的色数研究——这是一个长期未解决的开放问题,并提供了新的工具。

英文摘要:

We consider non-trivial homomorphisms to reflexive oriented graphs in which some pair of adjacent vertices have the same image. Using a notion of convexity for oriented graphs, we study those oriented graphs that do not admit such homomorphisms. We fully classify those oriented graphs with tree-width $2$ that do not admit such homomorphisms and show that it is NP-complete to decide if a graph admits an orientation that does not admit such homomorphisms. We prove analogous results for $2$-edge-coloured graphs. We apply our results on oriented graphs to provide a new tool in the study of chromatic number of orientations of planar graphs -- a long-standing open problem.
