On the b-coloring of P4-tidy graphs

A b-coloring of a graph is a coloring such that every color class admits a vertex adjacent to at least one vertex receiving each of the colors not assigned to it. The b-chromatic number of a graph G, denoted by χb(G), is the maximum number t such that G admits a b-coloring with t colors. A graph G i...

The b-chromatic number of a graph G, denoted by χb(G), is the maximum number t such that G admits a b-coloring with t colors. A graph G is b-continuous if it admits a b-coloring with t colors, for every t=χ(G),...,χb(G), and it is b-monotonic if χb(H1)<χb(H2) for every induced subgraph H1 of G, and every induced subgraph H2 of H1.

description	A b-coloring of a graph is a coloring such that every color class admits a vertex adjacent to at least one vertex receiving each of the colors not assigned to it. The b-chromatic number of a graph G, denoted by χb(G), is the maximum number t such that G admits a b-coloring with t colors. A graph G is b-continuous if it admits a b-coloring with t colors, for every t=χ(G),...,χb(G), and it is b-monotonic if χb(H1)<χb(H2) for every induced subgraph H1 of G, and every induced subgraph H2 of H1. In this work, we prove that P4-tidy graphs (a generalization of many classes of graphs with few induced P4s) are b-continuous and b-monotonic. Furthermore, we describe a polynomial time algorithm to compute theb-chromatic number for this class of graphs. © 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
