Anna Gujgiczer, Reza Naserasr, Rohini S, S Taruni

AI总结:

本文构造两类具有 2k²-k+1 个顶点、最短负环长 2k 且循环色数为 4 的符号二部图,并以此给出广义 Mycielski 图循环色数为 4 的初等证明。

摘要:

关于近期提出的符号图循环色数概念,对于每个给定整数 k,我们引入两个符号二部图,每个均有 2k²-k+1 个顶点,其最短负环长度为 2k,且循环色数为 4。每一种构造都可视为奇环上的广义 Mycielski 图 M_ℓ(C_{2k+1}) 的二部对应物。在证明结果的过程中,我们还得到了一个简洁证明,说明 M_ℓ(C_{2k+1}) 以及射影平面的一些类似四边形剖分具有循环色数 4。这些证明的优势在于以初等方式阐明了代数拓扑与图着色问题之间的紧密联系。

英文摘要:

Concerning the recent notion of circular chromatic number of signed graphs, for each given integer $k$ we introduce two signed bipartite graphs, each on $2k^2-k+1$ vertices, having shortest negative cycle of length $2k$, and the circular chromatic number 4. Each of the construction can be viewed as a bipartite analogue of the generalized Mycielski graphs on odd cycles, $M_{\ell}(C_{2k+1})$. In the course of proving our result, we also obtain a simple proof of the fact that $M_{\ell}(C_{2k+1})$ and some similar quadrangulations of the projective plane have circular chromatic number 4. These proofs have the advantage that they illuminate, in an elementary manner, the strong relation between algebraic topology and graph coloring problems.
