Tóm tắt

Abstract The concept of coloring is studied for graphs derived from lattices with 0. It is shown that, if such a graph is derived from an atomic or distributive lattice, then the chromatic number equals the clique number. If this number is finite, then in the case of a distributive lattice, it is determined by the number of minimal prime ideals in the lattice. An estimate for the number of edges in such a graph of a finite lattice is given.
