文摘The equitable tree-coloring can formulate a structure decomposition problem on the communication network with some security considerations.Namely,an equitable tree-Zc-coloring of a graph is a vertex coloring using k distinct colors such that every color class induces a forest and the sizes of any two color classes differ by at most one.In this paper,we show some theoretical results on the equitable tree-coloring of graphs by proving that every d-degenerate graph with maximum degree at most Δ is equitably tree-fc-colorable for every integer k≥(Δ+1)/2 provided that Δ≥9.818d,confirming the equitable vertex arboricity conjecture for graphs with low degeneracy.
