摘要
Given a family F of graphs, a graph G is F-free if it does not contain any graph in F as an induced subgraph. The problem of determining the complexity of vertex coloring (claw, 4K(1))-free graphs is a well known open problem. In this paper, we solve the coloring problem for a subclass of (claw, 4K(1))-free graphs. We design a polynomial-time algorithm to color (claw, 4K(1), co-R)-free graphs. This algorithm is derived from a structural theorem on (claw, 4K(1), co-R)-free graphs.
