## Abstract We present a new algorithm for coloring perfect graphs and use it to color the parity orderable graphs, a class which strictly contains parity graphs. Also, we modify this algorithm to obtain an __O__(__m__^2^ + __n__) locally perfect coloring algorithm for parity graphs. Β© 1995 John Wi

β¦ Synopsis
A coloring of a graph is locally-perfect if for every vertex u, the closed neighborhood of II contains no more than o(u) colors, where w(u) is the order of a largest clique containing u.
Here is constructed, for any 4 2 3, a q + l-chromatic graph, with clique number Q, that admits a locally-perfect coloring. This answers a problem of Preissmann [3].

## Abstract We investigate the conjecture that a graph is perfect if it admits a twoβedgeβcoloring such that two edges receive different colors if they are the nonincident edges of a __P__~4~ (chordless path with four vertices). Partial results on this conjecture are given in this paper. Β© 1995 Joh
Suppose G is a graph embedded in S g with width (also known as edge width) at least 264(2 g Γ 1). If P V(G) is such that the distance between any two vertices in P is at least 16, then any 5-coloring of P extends to a 5-coloring of all of G. We present similar extension theorems for 6-and 7-chromati
