Discrete & Computational Math Seminar (DisCoMath)

Chi-boundedness

Peter Maceli
Assistant Professor of Mathematics
Ithaca College

Abstract
:

If a graph has bounded clique number, and sufficiently large chromatic number, what can we say about its induced subgraphs? In the early 1980's András Gyárfás made a number of challenging conjectures about this. In this talk, we will give a brief survey of how these questions seek to generalize the class of perfect graphs, along with some recent results.
