We design fast dynamic algorithms for proper vertex and edge colorings in a graph undergoing edge insertions and deletions. In the static setting, there are simple linear time algorithms for $(\Delta+1)$- vertex coloring and…

We study the edge-colouring problem, and give efficient algorithms where the number of colours is parameterised by the graph's arboricity, $\alpha$. In a dynamic graph, subject to insertions and deletions, we give a deterministic algorithm…

We present a simple randomized algorithm that can efficiently maintain a $(\Delta+1)$ coloring as the graph undergoes edge insertion and deletion updates, where $\Delta$ denotes an upper bound on the maximum degree. A key advantage is the…

We present a deterministic distributed algorithm, in the LOCAL model, that computes a $(1+o(1))\Delta$-edge-coloring in polylogarithmic-time, so long as the maximum degree $\Delta=\tilde{\Omega}(\log n)$. For smaller $\Delta$, we give a…

We consider coloring problems in the distributed message-passing setting. The previously-known deterministic algorithms for edge-coloring employed at least (2Delta - 1) colors, even though any graph admits an edge-coloring with Delta + 1…

We present trade-offs in the incremental and fully dynamic settings to maintian a proper coloring. For any fully dynamic $2$-coloring algorithm, the maximum of the update time, number of recolorings, and query time is $\Omega(\log n)$. We…
