Chromatic numbers of spheres

Prosanov, Roman

In: Discrete Mathematics, 2018, vol. 341, no. 11, p. 3123–3133

The chromatic number of a subset of Euclidean space is the minimal number of colors sufficient for coloring all points of this subset in such a way that any two points at the distance 1 have different colors. We give new upper bounds on chromatic numbers of spheres. This also allows us to give new upper bounds on chromatic numbers of any bounded subsets.
