Abstract

We present a randomized distributed algorithm that computes a Δ -coloring in any non-complete graph with maximum degree Δ ≥ 4 in O(logΔ)+2O(loglogn) rounds, as well as a randomized algorithm that computes a Δ -coloring in O((log log n) 2) rounds when Δ ∈ [3 , O(1)]. Both these algorithms improve on an O(log 3n/ log Δ) -round algorithm of Panconesi and Srinivasan (STOC’93), which has remained the state of the art for the past 25 years. Moreover, the latter algorithm gets (exponentially) closer to an Ω (log log n) round lower bound of Brandt et al. (STOC’16).
