....the exact chromatic number of a graph in time O( 4 3 3 4 3 4) n ) # 2.4150 n , improving a previous O( 1 3 1 3 ) n ) # 2. 4422 n algorithm of Lawler (1976) 1 Introduction One of the earliest works in the area of worst case analysis of NP hard problems is a 1976 paper by Lawler [5] on graph coloring. It contains two results: an algorithm for finding a 3 coloring of a graph (if the graph is 3 chromatic) in time O(3 n 3 ) # 1.4422 n , and an algorithm for finding the chromatic number of an arbitrary graph in time O( 1 3 1 3 ) n ) # 2.4422 n . Since then, the ....

....number of papers on worst case analysis of algorithms for NP hard problems. Several authors have described algorithms for maximum independent sets [2, 7, 8, 11] the best of these is Robson s [7] which takes time O(1:2108 n ) For three coloring, we know of two relevant references. Lawler [5] is primarily concerned with the general chromatic number, but he also gives the following very simple algorithm for 3 coloring: for each maximal independent set, test whether the complement is bipartite. The maximal independent sets can be listed with polynomial delay [4] and there are at most ....
