  • ▫$\Theta$▫-graphs of partial cubes and strong edge colorings
    Kraner Šumenjak, Tadeja
    It was conjectured that the upper bound for the strong chromatic index ▫$s'(G)$▫ of bipartite graphs is ▫$\Delta (G)^2$▫, where ▫$\Delta (G)$▫ is the largest degree of vertices in ▫$G$▫. We study the ... strong edge coloring of some classes of bipartite graphs that belong to the class of partial cubes. We introduce the concept of ▫$\Theta$▫-graph ▫$\Theta (G)$▫ of a partial cube ▫$G$▫, and show that ▫$s'(G) \le \chi(\Theta(G))$▫ for every tree-like partial cube ▫$G$▫. As an application of this bound we derive that ▫$s'(G) \le 2\Delta (G)$▫ if ▫$G$▫ is a ▫$p$▫-expansion graph.
