On some upper bounds on the fractional chromatic number of weighted graphs
Ashwin Ganesan ;
Date 18 Jan 2010
AbstractGiven a weighted graph $G_x$, where $(x(v): v in V)$ is a non-negative, real-valued weight assigned to the vertices of G, let $B(G_x)$ be an upper bound on the fractional chromatic number of the weighted graph $G_x$; so $chi_f(G_x) le B(G_x)$. To investigate the worst-case performance of the upper bound $B$, we study the graph invariant $$eta(G) = sup_{x e 0} frac{B(G_x)}{chi_f(G_x)}.$$
This invariant is examined for various upper bounds $B$ on the fractional chromatic number. In some important cases, this graph invariant is shown to be related to the size of the largest star subgraph in the graph. This problem arises in the area of resource estimation in distributed systems and wireless networks; the results presented here have implications on the design and performance of decentralized communication networks.
