On the Quantum Chromatic Number of a Graph
We investigate the notion of quantum chromatic number of a graph, which is the minimal number of colours necessary in a protocol in which two separated provers can convince a refe...

An approximate version of Hadwiger's conjecture for claw-free graphs
Hadwiger’s conjecture states that every graph with chromatic number χ has a clique minor of size χ. In this paper we prove a weakened version of this conjecture for the class ...

A study of the total chromatic number of equibipartite graphs
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...

Efficient algorithms for finding critical subgraphs
This paper presents algorithms to find vertex-critical and edgecritical subgraphs in a given graph G, and demonstrates how these critical subgraphs can be used to determine the ch...

Excluding induced subgraphs: Critical graphs
Determining the cardinality and describing the structure of H-free graphs is wellinvestigated for many graphs H. In the nineties, Prömel and Steger proved that for a graph H with...
