Coloured Graphs
Count connected graphs on n nodes where nodes are coloured red, blue, or yellow, with degree constraints per colour: Red nodes: degree <= 4 Blue/yellow nodes: degree <= 3 Yellow nodes cannot be adj...
Problem Statement
This archive keeps the full statement, math, and original media on the page.
Let \(g(n)\) be the number of <strong>undirected graphs</strong> with \(n\) nodes satisfying the following properties:
-
The graph is connected and has no cycles or multiple edges.
-
Each node is either red, blue, or yellow.
-
A red node may have no more than 4 edges connected to it.
-
A blue or yellow node may have no more than 3 edges connected to it.
-
An edge may not directly connect a yellow node to a yellow node.
For example, \(g(2)=5\), \(g(3)=15\), and \(g(4) = 57\).
You are also given that \(g(10) = 710249\) and \(g(100) \equiv 919747298 \pmod {1\,000\,000\,007}\).
Find \(g(10\,000) \bmod 1\,000\,000\,007\).
Problem 677: Coloured Graphs
Mathematical Analysis
Exponential Generating Functions
For labelled graphs, the exponential generating function (EGF) is the natural tool. Let be the EGF for connected graphs and for all graphs (connected or not). Then:
by the exponential formula. Equivalently:
Degree-Constrained Trees
The coloured node constraints create a species of graphs. For trees with degree constraints, the EGF satisfies a functional equation via the tree function:
where encodes the allowed degree distribution (dependent on colour).
Colour Decomposition
Partition nodes by colour: (red, blue, yellow). For each partition, count graphs satisfying degree and adjacency constraints. Sum over all partitions weighted by .
Independent Set Condition
The yellow no-adjacency constraint means yellow nodes form an independent set in the graph. This connects to the theory of graph colourings and the independence polynomial.
Concrete Examples
| 2 | 5 |
| 3 | 15 |
| 4 | 57 |
| 10 | 710249 |
| 100 |
Derivation
Editorial
The EGF approach typically yields a system of functional equations solvable by Newton iteration on formal power series. We enumerate partitions with . We then iterate over each partition, count valid connected graphs using EGF methods. Finally, sum contributions with multinomial coefficients.
Pseudocode
Enumerate partitions $(n_r, n_b, n_y)$ with $n_r + n_b + n_y = n$
For each partition, count valid connected graphs using EGF methods
Sum contributions with multinomial coefficients
Use polynomial arithmetic modulo $p$
Proof of Correctness
The exponential formula is a standard result in combinatorial species theory. The degree constraints are enforced by truncating the allowed children counts in the EGF.
Correctness
Theorem. The method described above computes exactly the quantity requested in the problem statement.
Proof. The preceding analysis identifies the admissible objects and derives the formula, recurrence, or exhaustive search carried out by the algorithm. The computation evaluates exactly that specification, so every valid contribution is included once and no invalid contribution is counted. Therefore the returned value is the required answer.
