Randomly coloring sparse random graphs with fewer colors than the maximum degree
We analyze Markov chains for generating a random k-coloring of a random graph Gn,d/n. When the average degree d is constant, a random graph has maximum degree (log n/ log log n), ...

Almost all graphs with average degree 4 are 3-colorable
We analyze a randomized version of the Brelaz heuristic on sparse random graphs. We prove that almost all graphs with average degree dp4:03; i.e., G?n; p ? d=n?; are 3-colorable a...

Randomly Coloring Constant Degree Graphs
We study a simple Markov chain, known as the Glauber dynamics, for generating a random k-coloring of a n-vertex graph with maximum degree . We prove that, for every > 0, the d...

Why Almost All k-Colorable Graphs Are Easy to Color
Coloring a k-colorable graph using k colors (k ≥ 3) is a notoriously hard problem. Considering average case analysis allows for better results. In this work we consider the unif...
