The clique chromatic number of a graph is the minimum number of colours needed to colour its vertices so that no inclusion-wise maximal clique which is not an isolated vertex is monochromatic. We show that every graph of maximum degree…
Deep neural networks have been applied to a wide range of problems across different application domains with great success. Recently, research into combinatorial optimization problems in particular has generated much interest in the machine…
Graph parameters such as the clique number, the chromatic number, and the independence number are central in many areas, ranging from computer networks to linguistics to computational neuroscience to social networks. In particular, the…
Irregular computations on unstructured data are an important class of problems for parallel programming. Graph coloring is often an important preprocessing step, e.g. as a way to perform dependency analysis for safe parallel execution. The…
We present a means of formulating and solving graph coloring problems with probabilistic graphical models. In contrast to the prevalent literature that uses factor graphs for this purpose, we instead approach it from a cluster graph…
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…
Graph drawing research traditionally focuses on producing geometric embeddings of graphs satisfying various aesthetic constraints. After the geometric embedding is specified, there is an additional step that is often overlooked or ignored:…
A classic graph coloring problem is to assign colors to vertices of any graph so that distinct colors are assigned to adjacent vertices. Optimal graph coloring colors a graph with a minimum number of colors, which is its chromatic number.…
A coloring of a graph G = (V,E) is a partition {V1, V2, . . ., Vk} of V into independent sets or color classes. A vertex v Vi is a Grundy vertex if it is adjacent to at least one vertex in each color class Vj . A coloring is a Grundy…
A new algorithm for exactly sampling from the set of proper colorings of a graph is presented. This is the first such algorithm that has an expected running time that is guaranteed to be linear in the size of a graph with maximum degree \(…
CG:SHOP is an annual geometric optimization challenge and the 2022 edition proposed the problem of coloring a certain geometric graph defined by line segments. Surprisingly, the top three teams used the same technique, called conflict…
Given a graph $G=(V, E)$ and a list of available colors $L(v)$ for each vertex $v\in V$, where $L(v) \subseteq \{1, 2, \ldots, k\}$, List $k$-Coloring refers to the problem of assigning colors to the vertices of $G$ so that each vertex…
We develop an algorithmic framework for graph colouring that reduces the problem to verifying a local probabilistic property of the independent sets. With this we give, for any fixed $k\ge 3$ and $\varepsilon>0$, a randomised…
A vertex colouring of some graph is called perfect if each vertex of colour $i$ has exactly $a_{ij}$ neighbours of colour $j$. Being perfect imposes several restrictions on the colour incidence matrix $(a_{ij})$. We list several (old and…
A partition $(V_1,\ldots,V_k)$ of the vertex set of a graph $G$ with a (not necessarily proper) colouring $c$ is colourful if no two vertices in any $V_i$ have the same colour and every set $V_i$ induces a connected graph. The COLOURFUL…
In this paper, we study the conflict-free coloring of graphs induced by neighborhoods. A coloring of a graph is conflict-free if every vertex has a uniquely colored vertex in its neighborhood. The conflict-free coloring problem is to color…
In this work, we present a branch-and-price algorithm to solve the weighted version of the List Coloring Problem, based on a vertex cover formulation by stable sets. This problem is interesting for its applications and also for the many…
The property of spatial mixing and strong spatial mixing in spin systems has been of interest because of its implications on uniqueness of Gibbs measures on infinite graphs and efficient approximation of counting problems that are otherwise…
Consider an n-vertex graph G = (V,E) of maximum degree Delta, and suppose that each vertex v \in V hosts a processor. The processors are allowed to communicate only with their neighbors in G. The communication is synchronous, i.e., it…
Graph colouring is a fundamental problem for networks, serving as a tool for avoiding conflicts via symmetry breaking, for example, avoiding multiple computer processes simultaneously updating the same resource. This paper considers a…
