Three-coloring triangle-free graphs on surfaces VI. 3-colorability of quadrangulations

Zdenek Dvorak, Daniel Kral, Robin Thomas

Published 2015-09-03Version 1

We give a linear-time algorithm to decide 3-colorability (and find a 3-coloring, if it exists) of quadrangulations of a fixed surface. The algorithm also allows to prescribe the coloring for a bounded number of vertices.
