Abstract
The degree-constrained subgraphs decomposition problem, such as anf-coloring, anf-factorization, and a [g, f]-factorization, is to decompose a given graphG=(V, E) to edge-disjoint subgraphs degree-constrained by integer-valued functionsfandgonV. In this paper we show that the problem can be simply reduced to the edge-coloring problem in polynomial-time. That is, for any positive integerk, we give a polynomial-time transformation ofGto a new graph such thatGcan be decomposed to at mostkdegree-constrained subgraphs if and only if the new graph can be edge-colored withkcolors.
