摘要
In this paper, we consider the socalled k-coloring problem in general case.Firstly, a special quadratic 0-1 programming is constructed to formulate k-coloring problem. Secondly, by use of the equivalence between above quadratic0-1 programming and its relaxed problem, k-coloring problem is converted intoa class of (continuous) nonconvex quadratic programs, and several theoreticresults are also introduced. Thirdly, linear programming approximate algorithmis quoted and verified for this class of nonconvex quadratic programs. Finally,examining problems which are used to test the algorithm are constructed andsufficient computation experiments are reported.
