We prove that coloring a 3-uniform 2-colorable hypergraph with c colors is NP-hard for any constant c. The best known algorithm [20] colors such a graph using O(n1/5 ) colors. Our...
Denote by an -component a connected b-uniform hypergraph with k edges and k(b - 1) - vertices. We prove that the expected number of creations of -component during a random hypergr...
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...

: We derandomize results of H?astad (1999) and Feige and Kilian (1998) and show that for all > 0, approximating MAX CLIQUE and CHROMATIC NUMBER to within n1are NP-hard. We furt...
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...
