On edge orienting methods for graph coloring
We consider the problem of orienting the edges of a graph so that the length of a longest path in the resulting digraph is minimum. As shown by Gallai, Roy and Vitaver, this edge ...

Deciding k-Colorability of P5-Free Graphs in Polynomial Time
The problem of computing the chromatic number of a P5-free graph (a graph which contains no path on 5 vertices as an induced subgraph) is known to be NP-hard. However, we show tha...

A characterization of b-perfect graphs
A b-coloring is a coloring of the vertices of a graph such that each color class contains a vertex that has a neighbor in all other color classes, and the b-chromatic number of a ...

Injective colorings of graphs with low average degree
Let mad(G) denote the maximum average degree (over all subgraphs) of G and let i(G) denote the injective chromatic number of G. We prove that if 4 and mad(G) < 14 5 , then i(G...

Injective colorings of sparse graphs
Let Mad(G) denote the maximum average degree (over all subgraphs) of G and let i(G) denote the injective chromatic number of G. We prove that if Mad(G) 5 2 , then i(G) + 1; sim...
