Acyclic edge coloring of planar graphs
An acyclic edge coloring of a graph G is a proper edge coloring such that no bichromatic cycles are produced. The acyclic chromatic index of G, denoted by χ′a(G), is the smallest integer k such that G is acyclically edge k-colorable. In this paper, we consider the planar graphs without 3-cycles and...

The acyclic chromatic index of G, denoted by χ′a(G), is the smallest integer k such that G is acyclically edge k-colorable. In this paper, we consider the planar graphs without 3-cycles and intersecting 4-cycles, and prove that χ′a(G) ≤ ∆(G) + 1 if ∆(G) ≥ 8. © 2022 the Author(s), licensee AIMS Press. | |
