چکیده

For each proper subgraph H of K5, we determine all pairs (k, d) such that every H-minor-free graph is (k, d)-choosable or (k, d)-choosable. The main structural lemma is that the only 3-connected (K5 − e)-minor-free graphs are wheels, the triangular prism, and K3,3; this is used to prove that every (K5 − e)-minor-free graph is 4-choosable and (3, 1)-choosable.

Acyclic improper choosability of graphs

We consider improper colorings (sometimes called generalized, defective or relaxed colorings) in which every color class has a bounded degree. We propose a natural extension of improper colorings: acyclic improper choosability. We prove that subcubic graphs are acyclically (3,1)∗-choosable (i.e. they are acyclically 3-choosable with color classes of maximum degree one). Using a linear time algo...

k-forested choosability of graphs with bounded maximum average degree

A proper vertex coloring of a simple graph is $k$-forested if the graph induced by the vertices of any two color classes is a forest with maximum degree less than $k$. A graph is $k$-forested $q$-choosable if for a given list of $q$ colors associated with each vertex $v$, there exists a $k$-forested coloring of $G$ such that each vertex receives a color from its own list. In this paper, we prov...

Choosability and edge choosability of planar graphs without five cycles

It is proved that a planar graph G without five cycles is three degenerate, hence, four choosable, and it is also edge-(A( G) + l)h c oosable. @ 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved. Keywords-Choosability, Edge choosability, Degeneracy, Planar graph.

Bounds on circular consecutive choosability

The circular consecutive choosability chcc(G) of a graph G has been recently introduced in [2]. In this paper we prove upper bounds on chcc for series-parallel graphs, planar graphs and k-choosable graphs. Our bounds are tight for classes of series-parallel graphs and k-choosable graphs for k ≥ 3. Then we study the circular consecutive choosability of generalized theta graphs. Lower bounds for ...

Edge choosability of planar graphs without small cycles

We investigate structural properties of planar graphs without triangles or without 4-cycles, and show that every triangle-free planar graph G is edge-( (G) + 1)-choosable and that every planar graph with (G) = 5 and without 4-cycles is also edge-( (G) + 1)-choosable. c © 2003 Elsevier B.V.
