Backbone colorings for graphs: Tree and path backbones
We introduce and study backbone colorings, a variation on classical vertex colorings: Given a graph G = (V, E) and a spanning subgraph H of G (the backbone of G), a backbone color...

Approximation algorithms for finding and partitioning unit-disk graphs into co-k-plexes
This article studies a degree-bounded generalization of independent sets called co-k-plexes. Constant factor approximation algorithms are developed for the maximum co-k-plex probl...

Path Coloring on the Mesh
In the minimum path coloring problem, we are given a list of pairs of vertices of a graph. We are asked to connect each pair by a colored path. Paths of the same color must be edg...

A Study of Tabu Search for Coloring Random 3-Colorable Graphs Around the Phase Transition
We present an experimental investigation of tabu search (TS) to solve the 3-coloring problem (3-COL). Computational results reveal that a basic TS algorithm is able to find proper ...

Graphs with full rank 3-color matrix and few 3-colorings
We exhibit a a counterexample to a conjecture of Thomassen stating that the number of distinct 3-colorings of every graph whose 3color matrix has full column rank is superpolynomi...
