Lower Bounds on the Chromatic Number of Random Graphs

Lower Bounds on the Chromatic Number of Random Graphs

We prove that a formula predicted on the basis of non-rigorous physics arguments [Zdeborová and Krzakala: Phys. Rev. E (2007)] provides a lower bound on the chromatic number of sparse random graphs. The proof is based on the interpolation method from mathematical physics. In the case of random regular graphs …
