It has sparked research in several directions. This book presents a comprehensive overview of this development and see it in context. It describes results, both early and recent, and explains relations: the various proofs, the many extensions and similar results for other graph parameters. It serves as a valuable reference to a wealth of information, now scattered in journals, proceedings and dissertations. The reader gets easy access to this wealth of information in comprehensive form, including best known proofs of the results described. Each chapter ends in a note section with historical remarks, comments and further results. The book is also suitable for graduate courses in graph theory and includes exercises. The book is intended for readers wanting to dig deeper into graph coloring theory than what is possible in the existing book literature. There is a comprehensive list of references to original sources. 0aGraph theory.14aGraph Theory.1 aSchweser, Thomas.eauthor.4aut4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1 aToft, Bjarne.eauthor.4aut4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut2 aSpringerLink (Online service)0 tSpringer Nature eBook08iPrinted edition:z978303150064008iPrinted edition:z978303150066408iPrinted edition:z9783031500671 0aSpringer Monographs in Mathematics,x2196-992240uhttps://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-031-50065-7
