摘要
We demonstrate that for every positive integer ∆, every K4-minor-free graph with maximum degree ∆ admits an equitable coloring with k colors where k ≥∆+3/2. This bound is tight and confirms a conjecture by Zhang and Wu. We do not use the discharging method but rather exploit decomposition trees of K4-minor-free graphs. © 2017, Brown University.
