Heuristic algorithms for coloring the edges of large undirected single-edge graphs with (or very close to) the minimal number of colors are presented. Compared to simulated anneal...

This paper presents a new heuristic algorithm for the graph coloring problem based on a combination of genetic algorithms and simulated annealing. Our algorithm exploits a novel cr...

The total chromatic number zt(G) of a graph G is the least number of colors needed to color the vertices and edges of G so that no adjacent vertices or edges receive the same colo...
Abstract. We study the complexity of several coloring problems on graphs, parameterized by the treewidth t of the graph: (1) The list chromatic number χl(G) of a graph G is defin...

Abstract. The distance-2 graph coloring problem aims at partitioning the vertex set of a graph into the fewest sets consisting of vertices pairwise at distance greater than two fro...
