摘要
Given a graph G, its clique hypergraph C(G) has the same set of vertices as G and the hyperedges correspond to the (inclusionwise) maximal cliques of G. We consider the question of bicolorability of C(G). i.e., whether the vertices of G can be colored with two colors so that no maximal clique is monochromatic. Our two main results say that deciding the bicolorability of C(G) is NP-hard for perfect graphs (and even for those with clique number 3), but solvable in polynomial time for planar graphs.
