DP-3-colorability of planar graphs without cycles of length 4, 7 or 9

Yingli Kang, Ligang Jin, Xuding Zhu

This paper proves that every planar graph without cycles of length 4, 7, or 9 is DP-3-colorable.

A study on parity signed graphs: the number

Ligang Jin, Xiaoyue Chen, Yingli Kang

The study on parity signed graphs was initiated by Acharya and Kureethara very recently and then followed by Zaslavsky etc.. Let be a signed graph on vertices. If $(G,σ…

Partially normal 5-edge-colorings of cubic graphs

Ligang Jin, Yingli Kang

In a proper edge-coloring of a cubic graph, an edge is normal if the set of colors used by the edges adjacent to has cardinality 3 or 5. The Petersen coloring conjecture as…

Hajós-like theorem for signed graphs

Yingli Kang

The paper designs five graph operations, and proves that every signed graph with chromatic number can be obtained from all-positive complete graphs by repeatedly appl…

Remarks on planar edge-chromatic critical graphs

Ligang Jin, Yingli Kang, Eckhard Steffen

The only open case of Vizing's conjecture that every planar graph with is a class 1 graph is . We give a short proof of the following statement: there is no 6-criti…

Plane graphs without 4- and 5-cycles and without ext-triangular 7-cycles are 3-colorable

Ligang Jin, Yingli Kang, Michael Schubert +1

Listed as No. 53 among the one hundred famous unsolved problems in [J. A. Bondy, U. S. R. Murty, Graph Theory, Springer, Berlin, 2008] is Steinberg's conjecture, which states that…

The chromatic spectrum of signed graphs

Yingli Kang, Eckhard Steffen

The chromatic number of a signed graph is the smallest number for which there is a function such that $c(v) \not= σ(e) c(…

Circular coloring of signed graphs

Yingli Kang, Eckhard Steffen

Let ( be two positive integers. We generalize the well studied notions of -colorings and of the circular chromatic number to signed graphs. This imp…

Choosability in signed planar graphs

Ligang Jin, Yingli Kang, Eckhard Steffen

This paper studies the choosability of signed planar graphs. We prove that every signed planar graph is 5-choosable and that there is a signed planar graph which is not 4-choosable…

Face-degree bounds for planar critical graphs

Ligang Jin, Yingli Kang, Eckhard Steffen

The only remaining case of a well known conjecture of Vizing states that there is no planar graph with maximum degree 6 and edge chromatic number 7. We introduce parameters for pla…
