Abstract
A Conflict-Free Open Neighborhood coloring, abbreviated CFON^* coloring, of a graph G = (V,E) using k colors is an assignment of colors from a set of k colors to a subset of vertices of V(G) such that every vertex sees some color exactly once in its open neighborhood. The minimum k for which G has a CFON^* coloring using k colors is called the CFON^* chromatic number of G, denoted by χ_{ON}^*(G). The analogous notion for closed neighborhood is called CFCN^* coloring and the analogous parameter is denoted by χ_{CN}^*(G). The problem of deciding whether a given graph admits a CFON^* (or CFCN^*) coloring that uses k colors is NP-complete. Below, we describe briefly the main results of this paper. - For k ≥ 3, we show that if G is a K_{1,k}-free graph then χ_{ON}^*(G) = O(k²log Δ), where Δ denotes the maximum degree of G. Dębski and Przybyło in [J. Graph Theory, 2021] had shown that if G is a line graph, then χ_{CN}^*(G) = O(log Δ). As an open question, they had asked if their result could be extended to claw-free (K_{1,3}-free) graphs, which are a superclass of line graphs. Since it is known that the CFCN^* chromatic number of a graph is at most twice its CFON^* chromatic number, our result positively answers the open question posed by Dębski and Przybyło. - We show that if the minimum degree of any vertex in G is Ω(Δ/{log^ε Δ}) for some ε ≥ 0, then χ_{ON}^*(G) = O(log^{1+ε}Δ). This is a generalization of the result given by Dębski and Przybyło in the same paper where they showed that if the minimum degree of any vertex in G is Ω(Δ), then χ_{ON}^*(G)= O(logΔ). - We give a polynomial time algorithm to compute χ_{ON}^*(G) for interval graphs G. This answers in positive the open question posed by Reddy [Theoretical Comp. Science, 2018] to determine whether the CFON^* chromatic number can be computed in polynomial time on interval graphs. - We explore biconvex graphs, a subclass of bipartite graphs and give a polynomial time algorithm to compute their CFON^* chromatic number. This is interesting as Abel et al. [SIDMA, 2018] had shown that it is NP-complete to decide whether a planar bipartite graph G has χ_{ON}^*(G) = k where k ∈ {1, 2, 3}.

Algorithms for Message Ferrying on Mobile ad hoc Networks

Authors: Mostafa Ammar, Deeparnab Chakrabarty, Atish Das Sarma, Subrahmanyam Kalyanasundaram, and Richard J. Lipton

Published in: LIPIcs, Volume 4, IARCS Annual Conference on Foundations of Software Technology and Theoretical Computer Science (2009)


Abstract
Message Ferrying is a mobility assisted technique for working around the disconnectedness and sparsity of Mobile ad hoc networks. One of the importantquestions which arise in this context is to determine the routing of the ferry,so as to minimize the buffers used to store data at the nodes in thenetwork. We introduce a simple model to capture the ferry routingproblem. We characterize {\em stable} solutions of the system andprovide efficient approximation algorithms for the {\sc Min-Max Buffer Problem} for the case when the nodes are onhierarchically separated metric spaces.
