摘要
Given a family F of graphs, let Free(F) be the class of graphs that do not contain any member of as an induced subgraph. When F is a set of four-vertex graphs the complexity of the vertex coloring problem in Free(F) is known, with three exceptions: F = {claw, 4K(1)}, = {claw, 4K(1), co-diamond}, and F = {C-4, 4K(1)}. In this paper, we study the coloring problem for Free(claw, 4K(1)). We solve the vertex coloring problem for a subclass of Free(claw, 4K(1)) which contains the class of 4K(1)-free line graphs.
