AI总结:

本文提出了一种确定性算法,用于近似计数少于2Δ种颜色的图着色,通过避免零点并改进了先前结果。

摘要:

令Δ,q≥3为整数。我们证明存在η≥0.002,使得如果q≥(2-η)Δ,则存在一个开集U⊂C,包含区间[0,1],使得对于每个w∈U和任何最大度不超过Δ的图G=(V,E),反铁磁q态Potts模型在w处的配分函数不为零。这在Liu、Sinclair和Srivastava的结果上取得了(适度的)改进,并打破了此问题q=2Δ的障碍。作为直接结果,我们通过Barvinok的插值方法获得一个确定性多项式时间算法,用于近似最大度不超过Δ的图的q-着色数目,前提是q≥(2-η)Δ。

英文摘要:

Let $Δ,q\geq 3$ be integers. We prove that there exists $η\geq 0.002$ such that if $q\geq (2-η)Δ$, then there exists an open set $\mathcal{U}\subset \mathbb{C}$ that contains the interval $[0,1]$ such that for each $w\in \mathcal{U}$ and any graph $G=(V,E)$ of maximum degree at most $Δ$, the partition function of the anti-ferromagnetic $q$-state Potts model evaluated at $w$ does not vanish. This provides a (modest) improvement on a result of Liu, Sinclair, and Srivastava, and breaks the $q=2Δ$-barrier for this problem. As a direct consequence we obtain via Barvinok's interpolation method a deterministic polynomial time algorithm to approximate the number of proper $q$-colorings of graphs of maximum degree at most $Δ$, provided $q\geq (2-η)Δ$.
