  Bipartite graph - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In the mathematical field of graph theory, a bipartite graph is a special graph where the set of vertices can be divided into two disjoint sets with two vertices of the same set never sharing an edge.
Bipartite graphs are extensively used in modern Coding theory, especially to decode codewords received from the channel.
for a connected bipartite graph the size of the minimum edge cover plus the size of the minimum vertex cover is equal to the number of vertices.

 Graph Theory Glossary
For example, Figure 1.3.8 shows a simple graph which is also a bipartite graph because it may be divided into two parts, given by the subsets {1, 2} and {3, 4, 5}, where every edge in the graph goes from a vertex in one part to a vertex in the other part.
In the graph shown in Figure 1.3.14 a, cycles are represented, for example, by sequences of vertices 1, 5, 4, 2, 3, 4, 1 and 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 1.
The vertices of the graph shown in Figure 1.3.29 may be properly colored in four colors: the first color for vertex 1, the second color for vertices 2, and 7, the third color for vertices 4, and 5, and the fourth color for vertices 3, and 6.

A graph which can be embedded in the plane so that vertices correspond to points in the plane and edges correspond to unit-length line segments is called a ``unit-distance graph.'' The question above is equivalent to asking what the chromatic number of unit-distance graphs can be.

 Graph Theory
A graph G is planar if it can be drawn in the plane in such a way that no two edges meet each other except at a vertex to which they are incident.
Note that the sum of all the degrees of the faces is equal to twice the number of edges in the the graph, since each edge either borders two different faces (such as bg, cd, and cf) or occurs twice when walk around a single face (such as ab and gh).
Assume that the result is true for all connected plane graphs with fewer than m edges, where m is greater than or equal to 1, and suppose that G has m edges.

Topics that will be discussed include a series of applications that fit the domain of graph coloring (such as trying to color a planar map and scheduling problems), definitions and terminology that is associated with graph coloring (such as the chromatic number and the k-coloring of a graph) and existing results of graph coloring.
A complete Bipartite graph with m sets of vertices and n sets of vertices can be colored using at most two colors.
This will include an algorithm for determining if a given graph is two colorable (this algorithm was already seen in Algorithms since determining if a graph is bipartite is necessary and sufficient for showing a graph to be 2-colorable).

Planar graphs have been investigated for a long time, and it is known (Fáry's theorem) that any planar graph can be drawn in such a way that all edges are straight line segments.
A very similar Ramsey-theoretic argument, applied to graphs formed by starting with n points and adding a new point adjacent to each triple of the n points, shows that there are also graphs with thickness three and arbitrarily large geometric thickness [Eppstein, Contemp.
