We study the $(\Delta+1)$-edge-coloring problem in the parallel $\left(\mathrm{PRAM}\right)$ model of computation. The celebrated Vizing's theorem [Viz64] states that every simple graph $G = (V,E)$ can be properly $(\Delta+1)$-edge-colored.…
In the Edge Coloring problem, we are given an undirected graph $G$ with $n$ vertices and $m$ edges, and are tasked with finding the smallest positive integer $k$ so that the edges of $G$ can be assigned $k$ colors in such a way that no two…
In this paper, we revisit the online recoloring problem introduced recently by Azar et al. In online recoloring, there is a fixed set $V$ of $n$ vertices and an initial coloring $c_0: V\rightarrow [k]$ for some $k\in \mathbb{Z}^{>0}$. Under…

Vizing's theorem states that any $n$-vertex $m$-edge graph of maximum degree $\Delta$ can be {\em edge colored} using at most $\Delta + 1$ different colors [Diskret.~Analiz, '64]. Vizing's original proof is algorithmic and shows that such…
In this manuscript, we consider the problems of channel assignment in wireless networks and data migration in heterogeneous storage systems. We show that a soft edge coloring approach to both problems gives rigorous approximation…
Consider the following simple coloring algorithm for a graph on $n$ vertices. Each vertex chooses a color from $\{1, \dotsc, \Delta(G) + 1\}$ uniformly at random. While there exists a conflicted vertex choose one such vertex uniformly at…
We develop sequential algorithms for constructing edge-colorings of graphs and multigraphs efficiently and using few colors. Our primary focus is edge-coloring arbitrary simple graphs using $d+1$ colors, where $d$ is the largest vertex…

A coloring of a graph is an assignment of colors to vertices such that no two neighboring vertices have the same color. The need for memory-efficient coloring algorithms is motivated by their application in computing clique partitions of…
