Oriented trees in O(k √(k))-chromatic digraphs, a subquadratic bound for Burr's conjecture
CoRR(2024)
摘要
In 1980, Burr conjectured that every directed graph with chromatic number
2k-2 contains any oriented tree of order k as a subdigraph. Burr showed
that chromatic number (k-1)^2 suffices, which was improved in 2013 to
k^2/2 - k/2 + 1 by Addario-Berry et al. We give the first
subquadratic bound for Burr's conjecture, by showing that every directed graph
with chromatic number 8√(2/15) k √(k) + O(k) contains any
oriented tree of order k. Moreover, we provide improved bounds of
√(4/3) k √(k)+O(k) for arborescences, and (b-1)(k-3)+3 for
paths on b blocks, with b≥ 2.
