초록

Let $H$ be a graph, and $k\geq \chi(H)$ an integer. We say that $H$ has a {\em cyclic Gray code of $k$-colourings} if and only ifit is possible to list all its $k$-colourings in such a way thatconsecutive colourings, including the last and the first, agree on allvertices of $H$ except one. The Gray code number of $H$ is the least integer $k_0(H)$such that $H$ has a cyclic Gray code of its $k$-colouringsfor all $k\geq k_0(H)$. For complete bipartite graphs, we prove that$k_0(K_{\ell,r})=3$ when both $\ell$ and $r$ are odd, and$k_0(K_{\ell,r})=4$ otherwise.

Abstract

Let $H$ be a graph, and $k\geq \chi(H)$ an integer. We say that $H$ has a {\em cyclic Gray code of $k$-colourings} if and only ifit is possible to list all its $k$-colourings in such a way thatconsecutive colourings, including the last and the first, agree on allvertices of $H$ except one. The Gray code number of $H$ is the least integer $k_0(H)$such that $H$ has a cyclic Gray code of its $k$-colouringsfor all $k\geq k_0(H)$. For complete bipartite graphs, we prove that$k_0(K_{\ell,r})=3$ when both $\ell$ and $r$ are odd, and$k_0(K_{\ell,r})=4$ otherwise.
