摘要
The clique chromatic number of a graph is the minimum number of colours needed to colour its vertices so that no inclusion-wise maximal clique, which is not an isolated vertex, is monochromatic. We show that every graph of maximum degree Delta has clique chromatic number O (Delta/log Delta). We obtain as a corollary that every n-vertex graph has clique chromatic number O (root n/log n). Both these results are tight.
