Connectedness and Hamiltonicity of graphs on vertex colorings

Daniel C. McDonald

Abstract: Given a graph H, let G j k (H) be the graph whose vertices are the proper kcolorings of H, with edges joining two colorings if H contains a connected subgraph on at most j vertices that includes all vertices where the colorings differ. Properties of G 1 k (H) have been investigated before, including connectedness (see [2]) and Hamiltonicity (see [5]). We introduce and study the parameters g k (H) and h k (H), which denote the minimum j such that G j k (H) is connected or Hamiltonian, respectively.

“…A 2-tree is obtained from a triangle by repeatedly adding a new vertex that is joined to the end vertices of an existing edge. McDonald [McD15] considers a variation that allows recoloring more than one vertex at a time, namely at most ℓ vertices at a time, and he asked for the minimum ℓ for which the resulting flip graph has a Hamilton cycle.…”
