摘要
The acyclic chromatic number a(G) of a graph G is the minimum number of colors such that G has a proper vertex coloring and no bichromatic cycles. For a graph G with maximum degree Delta, Grunbaum (1973) conjectured a(G) <= Delta 1. Up to now, the conjecture has only been shown for Delta <= 4. In this paper, it is proved that a(G) <= 12 for Delta = 7, thus improving the result a(G) <= 17 of Dieng et al. (in: Proc. European conference on combinatorics, graph theory and applications, 2010).
