The Alon-Tarsi number of Halin graphs (2110.11617v1)
Published 22 Oct 2021 in math.CO
Abstract: The Alon-Tarsi number of a graph $G$ is the smallest $k$ for which there is an orientation $D$ of $G$ with max outdegree $k-1$ such that the number of Eulerian subgraphs of $G$ with an even number of edges differs from the number of Eulerian subgraphs with an odd number of edges. In this paper, we obtain the Alon-Tarsi number of a Halin graph equals 4 when it is a wheel of even order and 3 otherwise.
