We study strong list edge coloring of subcubic graphs, and we prove that every subcubic graph with maximum average degree less than 15/7, 27/11, 13/5, and 36/13 can be strongly list edge colored with six, seven, eight, and nine colors, respectively.

We present efficient algorithms for three coloring problems on subcubic graphs. (A subcubic graph has maximum degree at most three.) The first algorithm is for 4-edge coloring, or more generally, 4-list-edge coloring. Our algorithm runs in linear time, and appears to be simpler than previous ones. The second algorithm is the first randomized EREW PRAM algorithm for the same problem. It uses O(n/ log n) processors and runs in O( log n) time with high probability, where n is the number of vertices of the graph. The third algorithm is the first linear-time algorithm to 5-total-color subcubic graphs. The fourth algorithm generalizes this to get the first linear-time algorithm to 5-list-total-color subcubic graphs. Our sequential algorithms are based on a method of ordering the vertices and edges by traversing a spanning tree of a graph in a bottom-up fashion. Our parallel algorithm is based on a simple decomposition principle for subcubic graphs.

An injective edge-coloring [Formula: see text] of a graph [Formula: see text] is an edge-coloring such that if [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], and [Formula: see text] are three consecutive edges in [Formula: see text] (they are consecutive if they form a path or a cycle of length three), then [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] receive different colors. The minimum integer [Formula: see text] such that, [Formula: see text] has an injective edge-coloring with [Formula: see text] colors, is called the injective chromatic index of [Formula: see text] ([Formula: see text]). This parameter was introduced by Cardoso et al. [Injective coloring of graphs, Filomat 33(19) (2019) 6411–6423, arXiv:1510.02626] motivated by the Packet Radio Network problem. They proved that computing [Formula: see text] of a graph [Formula: see text] is NP-hard. We give new upper bounds for this parameter and we present the relationships of the injective edge-coloring with other colorings of graphs. We study the injective edge-coloring of some classes of subcubic graphs. We prove that a subcubic bipartite graph has an injective chromatic index bounded by [Formula: see text]. We also prove that if [Formula: see text] is a subcubic graph with maximum average degree less than [Formula: see text] (respectively, [Formula: see text]), then [Formula: see text] admits an injective edge-coloring with at most 4 (respectively, [Formula: see text]) colors. Moreover, we establish a tight upper bound for subcubic outerplanar graphs.

A [Formula: see text]-injective edge coloring of a graph [Formula: see text] is a coloring [Formula: see text], such that if [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are consecutive edges in [Formula: see text], then [Formula: see text]. [Formula: see text] has a [Formula: see text]-injective edge coloring[Formula: see text] is called the injective edge coloring number. In this paper, we consider the upper bound of [Formula: see text] in terms of the maximum average degree mad[Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text].
