This $179,870 project grant from the National Science Foundation's Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049) will support research into graph edge coloring at Georgia State University Research Foundation from August 2022 through July 2025. The principal investigator and collaborators will determine families of graphs whose chromatic index can be computed in polynomial time, aiming to show that commonly known families such as simple graphs with large maximum degrees, all planar graphs, and graphs obtained by doubling edges of regular simple graphs belong to the class of graphs where the chromatic index equals the maximum of two lower bound values and can thus be determined efficiently. Additionally, the researchers will extend techniques for edge coloring to tackle problems in graph total coloring, including a conjecture on the equality of total chromatic number and chromatic index.
