Consider a graph $G = (V, E)$ and, for each vertex $v \in V$, a subset $\Sigma(v)$ of neighbors of $v$. A $\Sigma$-coloring is a coloring of the elements of $V$ so that vertices appearing together in some $\Sigma(v)$ receive pairwise…

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 \(…

In Defective Coloring we are given a graph $G$ and two integers $\chi_d$, $\Delta^*$ and are asked if we can $\chi_d$-color $G$ so that the maximum degree induced by any color class is at most $\Delta^*$. We show that this natural…

Graph workloads pose a particularly challenging problem for query optimizers. They typically feature large queries made up of entirely many-to-many joins with complex correlations. This puts significant stress on traditional cardinality…

Graph coloring is a fundamental problem in combinatorics with many applications in practice. In this problem, the vertices in a given graph must be colored by using the least number of colors in such a way that a vertex has a different…

An interval t-coloring of a graph G is a proper edge-coloring of G with colors 1,2,...,t such that at least one edge of G is colored by i, i=1,2,...,t, and the edges incident to each vertex v\in V(G) are colored by d_{G}(v) consecutive…

The network coloring game has been proposed in the literature of social sciences as a model for conflict-resolution circumstances. The players of the game are the vertices of a graph with $n$ vertices and maximum degree $\Delta$. The game…

In a connected simple graph G = (V,E), each vertex of V is colored by a color from the set of colors C={c1, c2,..., c_{\alpha}}$. We take a subset S of V, such that for every vertex v in V\S, at least one vertex of the same color is present…

The coloring problem is studied in the paper for graph classes defined by two small forbidden induced subgraphs. We prove some sufficient conditions for effective solvability of the problem in such classes. As their corollary we determine…

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 graph coloring problem is a classical combinatorial optimization problem with important applications such as register allocation and task scheduling, and it has been extensively studied for decades. However, near-real-time algorithms…

We study the dominating set problem in an online setting. An algorithm is required to guarantee competitiveness against an adversary that reveals the input graph one node at a time. When a node is revealed, the algorithm learns about the…

We introduce the fully-dynamic conflict-free coloring problem for a set $S$ of intervals in $\mathbb{R}^1$ with respect to points, where the goal is to maintain a conflict-free coloring for$S$ under insertions and deletions. A coloring is…

The distributed (Delta + 1)-coloring problem is one of most fundamental and well-studied problems of Distributed Algorithms. Starting with the work of Cole and Vishkin in 86, there was a long line of gradually improving algorithms…

In this paper we introduce and study a new problem named \emph{min-max edge $q$-coloring} which is motivated by applications in wireless mesh networks. The input of the problem consists of an undirected graph and an integer $q$. The goal is…

The maximum edge colouring problem considers the maximum colour assignment to edges of a graph under the condition that every vertex has at most a fixed number of distinct coloured edges incident on it. If that fixed number is $q$ we call…

An edge-coloring of a graph $G$ with colors $1,...,t$ is called an interval $t$-coloring if all colors are used, and the colors of edges incident to any vertex of $G$ are distinct and form an interval of integers. In 1991 Erd\H{o}s…

This paper investigates the semi-streaming complexity of \textit{$k$-partial coloring}, a generalization of proper graph coloring. For $k \geq 1$, a $k$-partial coloring requires that each vertex $v$ in an $n$-node graph is assigned a color…

This paper studies sufficient conditions to obtain efficient distributed algorithms coloring graphs optimally (i.e.\ with the minimum number of colors) in the LOCAL model of computation. Most of the work on distributed vertex coloring so…

We present online deterministic algorithms for minimum coloring and minimum dominating set problems in the context of geometric intersection graphs. We consider a graph parameter: the independent kissing number $\zeta$, which is a number…
