Graph coloring is one of the oldest and best-known problems of graph theory. Statistics show that graph coloring is one of the central issues in the collection of several hundred classical combinatorial problems. This book covers the problems in graph coloring, which can be viewed as one area of discrete optimization.
Contains a wealth of information previously scattered in research journals, conference proceedings and technical reports. Identifies more than 200 unsolved problems. Every problem is stated in a self-contained, extremely accessible format, followed by comments on its history, related results and literature. The book will stimulate research and help avoid efforts on solving already settled problems. Each chapter concludes with a comprehensive list of references which will lead readers to original sources, important contributions and other surveys.
