Discharging method (discrete mathematics)-An example-In 1904, Wernicke introduced the discharging method to prove the following theorem, which was part of an attempt to prove the four color theorem. Theorem: If a planar graph has minimum degree 5, then it either has an edge with endpoints both of degree 5 or one with e...

Discharging method (discrete mathematics)-An example-Embed the graph in the plane. To prove the theorem, it is sufficient to only consider planar triangulations (because, if it holds on a triangulation, when removing nodes to return to the original graph, neither node on either side of the desired edge can be removed w...

Discharging method (discrete mathematics)-An example-Thus, if the triangulation contains a light edge, then that edge must have been in the original graph.

Discharging method (discrete mathematics)-An example-We give the charge 6−d(v) to each vertex v and the charge 6−2d(f) to each face f , where d(x) denotes the degree of a vertex and the length of a face. (Since the graph is a triangulation, the charge on each face is 0.) Recall that the sum of all the degrees in t...

Discharging method (discrete mathematics)-An example-The only vertices with positive initial charge are vertices of degree 5. Each degree 5 vertex gives a charge of 1/5 to each neighbor. So, each vertex is given a total charge of at most d(v)/5 . The initial charge of each vertex v is 6−d(v) . So, the final charg...
