Graph Choosability and Double List Colorability
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper, we give a sufficient condition for graph choosability, based on Combinatorial Nullstellensatz and a specific property, called “double list colorability”, which means that there is a list assignment for which there are exactly two admissible colorings.

Extended core and choosability of a graph
A graph G is (a, b)-choosable if for any color list of size a associated with each vertices, one can choose a subset of b colors such that adjacent vertices are colored with disjoint color sets. This paper shows an equivalence between the (a, b)-choosability of a graph and the (a, b)-choosability of one of its subgraphs called the extended core. As an application, this result allows to prove th...
متن کامل3-choosability of Planar Graphs with ( 4)-cycles Far Apart
A graph is k-choosable if it can be colored whenever every vertex has a list of at least k available colors. We prove that if cycles of length at most four in a planar graph G are pairwise far apart, then G is 3-choosable. This is analogous to the problem of Havel regarding 3-colorability of planar graphs with triangles far apart.
متن کاملk-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...
متن کاملDouble-Exponential and Triple-Exponential Bounds for Choosability Problems Parameterized by Treewidth
Choosability, introduced by Erdős, Rubin, and Taylor [Congr. Number. 1979], is a well-studied concept in graph theory: we say that a graph is c-choosable if for any assignment of a list of c colors to each vertex, there is a proper coloring where each vertex uses a color from its list. We study the complexity of deciding choosability on graphs of bounded treewidth. It follows from earlier work ...
