Abstract

We consider the problem of vertex coloring random k-colorable graphs using k colors. We consider two different models for generating random graphs. We give algorithms for coloring random graphs in these models, with running times polynomial on the average. The first model is discussed in Turner [6] and the second model is discussed in Dyer and Frieze [3]. Our results improve the these current results for this problem by removing the assumption ofconstant edge probability used in these models.
