Equitable List Coloring, Induced Linear Forests, and Routing in Rooted Graphs

Abstract

dc:description

We explicitly characterize the family of networks for which such a protocol exists. This characterization is given in terms of forbidden rooted minors, which leads to a linear time recognition algorithm for this family of networks. We obtain a similar characterization for the family of networks in which a message can be broadcast from a single node s to all other nodes. Finally, we show that there is a forbidden rooted minor characterization for the more general case when a header (containing routing information) of fixed length is attached to the message, and we discuss the algorithmic consequences of this characterization.
