β¦ Synopsis
We describe a simple characterization of graphs which are simultaneouly split and mdiffcrcncc graphs. In the sequel, WE present a method for optimally edge colouring a complete graph M ith an c\en number > 6 of vertices, leading to a simple construction for exhibiting a perfect matching of it. in which all its edges have different colours. Based on the two results, WC obtain equations for computing the chromatic index of graphs of the considered class, in linear time. We recall that the chromatic index problem is still unsolved for both classes of split and indifference graphs. I? 19% Elsc\icr Science B.V. All rights reserved.

The chromatic index problem-ΓΏnding the minimum number of colours required for colouring the edges of a graph-is still unsolved for indi erence graphs, whose vertices can be linearly ordered so that the vertices contained in the same maximal clique are consecutive in this order.

In a simultaneous colouring of the edges and faces of a plane graph we colour edges and faces so that every two adjacent or incident pair of them receive different colours. In this paper we prove a conjecture of Mel'nikov which states that for this colouring every plane graph can be coloured with 2+
