Improvement on Brook theorem for 2K2-free Graphs

Abstract

Here we prove that for a 2K2-free graph G with maximum degree greater than or equal to 5, the chromatic number is less than or equal to maxmaximum degree-1, maximum clique size. This implies that Borodin & Kostochka Conjecture is true for 2K2-free graphs.
