/**@file   probdata_coloring.c
 * @brief  problem data for vertex coloring algorithm
 * @author Gerald Gamrath
 *
 * This file implements the problem data for the coloring algorithm.
 *
 * The problem data contains the original graph, preprocessing information, the preprocessed graph,
 * the array with the node-constraints, and an array with all stable sets and corresponding
 * variables.
 *
 * The preprocessing deletes nodes that have a lower degree than the size of a maximum clique.
 * Additionally, it also deletes nodes that have a dominated neighborhood. For further information,
 * look at the documentation for the method preprocessGraph().
 *
 * The deleted nodes and the relation between the nodes of the original graph and the nodes of the
 * preprocessed graph are stored in order to convert a solution of the preprocessed problem to a
 * solution for the original graph and vice versa.
 *
 * Each variable has a pointer of type SCIP_VARDATA* that is used in this case to store an integer
 * representing the number of the stable set. With the aid of this, the corresponding stable set can
 * be found in the array returned by COLORprobGetStableSets().  This array contains all stable sets
 * and is also used to check whether a stable set found by the pricer is really new. This can be
 * done by calling COLORprobStableSetIsNew(). All sets are sorted decreasingly with respect to the
 * indices of the nodes. New candidates should also be sorted that way.

 *  Preprocessing of the graph, using 2 methods in order to find redundant nodes
 *  that can be deleted and easily colored later.
 *
 *  Foundation of these methods is the computation of a maximum clique C with M nodes.
 *  After this computation, the following two steps are repeated until no node was deleted
 *  in the last iteration:
 *
 *  1: Low-Degree:
 *  Iterativly delete all nodes v in the graph G with degree d(v) < M ( don't delete nodes of C )
 *
 *  2: Dominated Neighbourhood:
 *  If the neighbourhood of one node v is part of the neighbourhood of another node w, v can
 *  be deleted, since it can later get the same color as w.
