Chromatic uniqueness of the complements of certain forests (Q1366780): Difference between revisions

A \(T\)-shape tree is a tree with the degree sequence \(\{ 1,1,1,2,2,\dots, 2,3\}\). By studying adjoint polynomials, the authors obtained the following result. There is a family \(\mathcal H\) of \(T\)-shape trees such that for each \(H \in {\mathcal H}\), if the complement of a graph \(G\) is a disjoint union of any number of copies of \(H\), then \(G\) is chromatically unique.
