CircularChromaticIndex - Maple Help

GraphTheory

 CircularChromaticIndex
 compute circular chromatic index of a graph
 CircularEdgeChromaticNumber
 compute circular edge chromatic number of a graph

 Calling Sequence CircularChromaticIndex(G, col) CircularEdgeChromaticNumber(G, col)

Parameters

 G - undirected unweighted graph col - (optional) name used to return the list of colors of an optimal proper coloring

Description

 • The CircularChromaticIndex and CircularEdgeChromaticNumber commands return the circular chromatic index (circular edge chromatic number) of a graph G.
 • If a name col is specified, then this name is assigned the list of colors of an optimal proper edge coloring. The algorithm uses a backtracking technique.
