Borel Vizing's Theorem for Graphs of Subexponential Growth

Abstract

We show that every Borel graph GG of subexponential growth has a Borel proper edge-coloring with Δ(G)+1\Delta(G) + 1 colors. We deduce this from a stronger result, namely that an nn-vertex (finite) graph GG of subexponential growth can be properly edge-colored using Δ(G)+1\Delta(G) + 1 colors by an O(logn)O(\log^\ast n)-round deterministic distributed algorithm in the LOCAL\mathsf{LOCAL} model, where the implied constants in the O()O(\cdot) notation are determined by a bound on the growth rate of GG.
