The {\em acyclic chromatic number} of a graph is the least number of colors needed to properly color its vertices so that none of its cycles has only two colors. The {\em acyclic chromatic index} is the analogous graph parameter for edge…

The degree splitting problem requires coloring the edges of a graph red or blue such that each node has almost the same number of edges in each color, up to a small additive discrepancy. The directed variant of the problem requires…

We present a novel algorithm for edge-coloring of multigraphs. The correctness of this algorithm for multigraphs with $\chi' > \Delta +1$ ($\chi'$ is the chromatic edge number and $\Delta$ is the maximum vertex degree) would prove a long…
