abstract

The clustered chromatic number of a graph class is the minimum integer $t$ such that for some $C$ the vertices of every graph in the class can be colored in $t$ colors so that every monochromatic component has size at most $C$. We show that the clustered chromatic number of the class of graphs embeddable on a given surface is four, proving the conjecture of Esperet and Ochem. Additionally, we study the list version of the concept and characterize the minor-closed classes of graphs of bounded treewidth with given clustered list chromatic number. We further strengthen the above results to solve some extremal problems on bootstrap percolation of minor-closed classes.

  1. 3-Colouring Planar Graphs

    math.CO 2025-07 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Every n-vertex planar graph can be 3-coloured so that each monochromatic connected component has at most O(n^{4/9}) vertices, improving the previous O(n^{1/2}) bound.
