Uniquely 2-list colorable graphs

چکیده
A graph is called to be uniquely list colorable, if it admits a list assignment which induces a unique list coloring. We study uniquely list colorable graphs with a restriction on the number of colors used. In this way we generalize a theorem which characterizes uniquely 2–list colorable graphs. We introduce the uniquely list chromatic number of a graph and make a conjecture about it which is a generalization of the well known Brooks’ theorem.

Restricted List Colorings of Graphs
A graph is called to be uniquely list colorable, if it admits a list assignment which induces a unique list coloring. We study uniquely list colorable graphs with a restriction on the number of colors used. In this way we generalize a theorem which characterizes uniquely 2–list colorable graphs.

متن کاملOn the Uniquely List Colorable Graphs
Let G be a graph with ν vertices, and let S1, S2, . . . , Sν be a list of colors on its vertices, each of size k. If there exists a unique proper coloring for G from this list of colors, then G is called uniquely k–list colorable graph. We characterize all uniquely 2–list colorable graphs, and discuss uniquely k–list colorable graphs by introducing some open problems. We also show the connectio...
متن کاملJ un 1 99 9 On Uniquely List Colorable Graphs ∗
Let G be a graph with n vertices and suppose that for each vertex v in G, there exists a list of k colors, L(v), such that there is a unique proper coloring for G from this collection of lists, then G is called a uniquely k–list colorable graph. Recently M. Mahdian and E.S. Mahmoodian characterized uniquely 2–list colorable graphs. Here we state some results which will pave the way in character...

متن کاملComplexity of unique list colorability
Given a list L(v) for each vertex v, we say that the graph G is L-colorable if there is a proper vertex coloring of G where each vertex v takes its color from L(v). The graph is uniquely k-list colorable if there is a list assignment L such that |L(v)| = k for every vertex v and the graph has exactly one L-coloring with these lists. Mahdian and Mahmoodian [MM99] gave a polynomial-time character...
