Abstract [en]

A proper edge coloring of a graph G with colors 1,2,,t is called a cyclic interval t-coloring if for each vertex v of G the edges incident to v are colored by consecutive colors, under the condition that color 1 is considered as consecutive to color t. We prove that a bipartite graph G of even maximum degree (G)4 admits a cyclic interval (G)-coloring if for every vertex v the degree dG(v) satisfies either dG(v)(G)-2 or dG(v)2. We also prove that every Eulerian bipartite graph G with maximum degree at most eight has a cyclic interval coloring. Some results are obtained for (a,b)-biregular graphs, that is, bipartite graphs with the vertices in one part all having degree a and the vertices in the other part all having degree b; it has been conjectured that all these have cyclic interval colorings. We show that all (4, 7)-biregular graphs as well as all (2r-2,2r)-biregular (r2) graphs have cyclic interval colorings. Finally, we prove that all complete multipartite graphs admit cyclic interval colorings; this proves a conjecture of Petrosyan and Mkhitaryan.
