Abstract:

An edge-colored graph is rainbow if no two edges have a same color. For two rainbow spanning trees T and T'of an edge-colored graph, we say that T' is obtained from T by an edge flip if there exist edges e and f in G such that T'=T-e+f. For an edge-colored graph G, we define the reconfiguration graph H to be the graph whose vertices correspond to rainbow spanning trees of G, and rainbow spanning trees are joined by an edge in H if and only if one is obtained from the other by a single edge flip. The reconfiguration graph is not necessarily connected. We give a condition on an edge-colored graph for its reconfiguration graph to be connected. Moreover, we found some properties of reconfiguration graphs. I will talk about our results and some open problems. This is joint work with Yutaro Yamaguchi from Osaka University.
