In this paper, we prove that the harmonious coloring problem is NP-complete for connected interval and permutation graphs. Given a simple graph G, a harmonious coloring of G is a ...

Abstract In this paper, we settle the open complexity status of interval constrained coloring with a fixed number of colors. We prove that the problem is already NP-complete if th...

The problem of coloring a set of n intervals (from the real line) with a set of k colors is studied. In such a coloring, two intersecting intervals must receive distinct colors. O...
