Please help me solve this discrete mathematical problem and I will gladly give a thumbs up... thanks! Complete the following proof using mathematical induction on the number of vertices, proving that...
Complete the following proof using mathematical induction on the number of vertices, proving that the chromatic number of a connected planar simple graph (CPS) is no more than 6. Justify each step. Basis step: A CPS graph with 6 or fewer vertices is 6-colorable. Inductive hypothesis: Any CPS graph with k2 6 vertices is 6-colorable. Inductive step: Consider a CPS graph with k+1 vertices: (continue....)
