Abstract

We consider the problem of edge-coloring planar graphs. It is known that a planar graph G with maximum degree Δ ≥ 8 can be colored with Δ colors. We present two algorithms which find such a coloring when Δ ≥ 9. The first one is a sequential O( n log n) time algorithm. The other one is a parallel EREW PRAM algorithm which works in time O(log 3 n) and uses O( n) processors.
