A branch-and-price algorithm for the (k,c)-coloring problem

In this article, we study the (k,c)-coloring problem, a generalization of the vertex coloring problem where we have to assign k colors to each vertex of an undirected graph, and two adjacent vertices can share at most c colors. We propose a new formulation for the (k,c)-coloring problem and develop...

520 3 |a In this article, we study the (k,c)-coloring problem, a generalization of the vertex coloring problem where we have to assign k colors to each vertex of an undirected graph, and two adjacent vertices can share at most c colors. We propose a new formulation for the (k,c)-coloring problem and develop a Branch-and-Price algorithm. We tested the algorithm on instances having from 20 to 80 vertices and different combinations for k and c, and compare it with a recent algorithm proposed in the literature. Computational results show that the overall approach is effective and has very good performance on instances where the previous algorithm fails. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
