摘要
The mean chromatic number of a graph is defined. This is a measure of the expected performance of the greedy vertex-colouring algorithm when each ordering of the vertices is equally likely. In this note, we analyse the asymptotic behaviour of the mean chromatic number for the paths and even cycles, using generating function techniques.
