Packing directed Hamilton cycles online

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: Consider a directed analogue of the random graph process on n vertices, where the n(n−1) edges are ordered uniformly at random and revealed one at a time. It is known that w.h.p.@ the first digraph in this process with both in-degree and out-degree geqq has a [q]-edge-coloring with a Hamilton cycle in each color. We show that this coloring can be constructed online, where each edge must be irrevocably colored as soon as it appears. In a similar fashion, for the emph{undirected} random graph process, we present an online [n]-edge-coloring algorithm which yields w.h.p.@ q disjoint rainbow Hamilton cycles in the first graph of the process that contains q disjoint Hamilton cycles.
