On Total and Edge-colouring of Proper Circular-arc Graphs
Keyword(s):
Deciding if a graph is Δ-edge-colourable (resp. (Δ + 1)-total colourable), although it is an NP-complete problem for graphs in general, is polynomially solvable for interval graphs of odd (resp. even) maximum degree Δ. An interesting superclass of the proper interval graphs are the proper circular-arc graphs, for which we suspect that Δ-edge-colourability is linear-time decidable. This work presents sufficient conditions for Δ-edge-colourability, (Δ + 1)-total colourability, and (Δ+2)-total colourability of proper circular-arc graphs. Our proofs are constructive and yield polynomial-time algorithms.
