Three-Coloring and List Three-Coloring of Graphs Without Induced Paths on Seven Vertices

In this paper we present a polynomial time algorithm that determines if an input graph containing no induced seven-vertex path is 3-colorable. This affirmatively answers a question posed by Randerath, Schiermeyer and Tewes in 2002. Our algorithm also solves the list-coloring version of the 3-colorin...
