Abstract: Let G be a \Delta--regular graph with n vertices and girth at least 4 such that \Delta AE log n. We give very simple, randomized, distributed algorithms for vertex colouring G with \Delta=k colours in O(k + log n= log \Delta) communication rounds, for k = O(log \Delta). The algorithm may fail or exceed the above running time, but the probability that this happens is o(1), a quantity that goes to zero as n grows. The probabilistic analysis relies on a powerful generalization of Azuma's... (Update)
