3-Colourability of Dually Chordal Graphs in Linear Time
  A graph G is dually chordal if there is a spanning tree T of G such that any maximal clique of G induces a subtree in T. This paper investigates the Colourability problem on dually chordal graphs. It will show that it is NP-complete in case of four colours and solvable in linear time with a simple algorithm in case of three colours. In addition, it will be shown that a dually chordal graph is 3-colourable if and only if it is perfect and has no clique of size four.
