Tree Independence Number III. Thetas, Prisms and Stars

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We prove that for every t ∈ N $t\in {\mathbb{N}}$ there exists τ = τ ( t ) ∈ N $\tau =\tau (t)\in {\mathbb{N}}$ such that every (theta, prism, K 1 , t ${K}_{1,t}$)‐free graph has tree independence number at most τ $\tau $ (where we allow “prisms” to have one path of length zero).

On Odd Covers of Cliques and Disjoint Unions

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Babai and Frankl posed the “odd cover problem” of finding the minimum cardinality of a collection of complete bipartite graphs such that every edge of the complete graph of order n $n$ is covered an odd number of times. In a previous paper with O'Neill, some of the authors proved that this value is always ⌈ n / 2 ⌉ $\lceil n/2\rceil $ or ⌈ n /

Explicit 3‐colorings for Exponential Graphs

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In 1985, El‐Zahar and Sauer showed that the chromatic number of the direct product of two 4‐chromatic graphs is 4, establishing a nontrivial case of Hedetniemi's conjecture, which has since been refuted in general. Their proof uses the concept of an exponential graph, showing that if a graph H $H$ has no proper 3‐coloring, then the exponential

Flexible List Coloring of Graphs With Maximum Average Degree Less Than 3

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the flexible list coloring problem, we consider a graph G $G$ and a color list assignment L $L$ on G $G$, as well as a subset U ⊆ V ( G ) $U\subseteq V(G)$ for which each u ∈ U $u\in U$ has a preferred color p ( u ) ∈ L ( u ) $p(u)\in L(u)$. Our goal is to find a proper L $L$‐coloring ϕ $\phi $ of G $G$ such that ϕ ( u ) = p ( u ) $\phi (u)=

Sparse Graphs With Local Covering Conditions on Edges

open access: yesJournal of Graph Theory, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In 1988, Erdős suggested the question of minimizing the number of edges in a connected n $n$‐vertex graph where every edge is contained in a triangle. Shortly after, Catlin, Grossman, Hobbs, and Lai resolved this in a stronger form. In this paper, we study a natural generalization of the question of Erdős in which we replace “triangle” with ...
