AI总结:
本文解决了阿尔伯森猜想中r=25、26的三类剩余情形,结合已发表结果及附录对19≤r≤24的重证,证明该猜想对所有r≤26成立,还得出色数为27且交叉数小于cr(K_27)的图的相关子图性质。
AI中文摘要:
阿尔伯森猜想:每个色数为r的图,其交叉数至少为完全图K_r的交叉数cr(K_r)。此前该猜想已被证实:Albertson、Cranston和Fox证实r≤12时成立;Barát和Tóth证实r≤16时成立;Ackerman证实r≤18时成立;近期Cranston证实r≤24时成立,且将剩余的r∈{25,26}的情况简化为三类情形。本文解决了这三类情形,从而证明阿尔伯森猜想对所有r≤26均成立。本文仅使用已发表的结果,附录重新证明了19≤r≤24的范围,因此r≤26的情形不依赖未发表的工作。此外,本文还证明:若图G的色数χ(G)=27且交叉数cr(G)<cr(K_27),则G存在阶为53或54的27-临界子图,其补图是连通的。
英文摘要:
Albertson conjectured that every graph of chromatic number r has crossing number at least that of K_r. We prove the conjecture for every r. After the known case r <= 18, an r-critical counterexample is reduced to two order ranges. Near r, we use Gallai's decomposition, completion, and a reserved weak-immersion routing argument. In the remaining middle range, we compress repeated independent-triple reductions into an exact terminal edge bound and combine it with sampled crossing-number inequalities. The remaining finite and interval inequalities are verified by exact certificates.
