چکیده

A graph G is (a, b)-choosable if for any color list of size a associated with each vertex, one can choose a subset of b colors such that adjacent vertices are colored with disjoint color sets. This paper proves that for any integer m ≥ 1, every finite triangle-free induced subgraph of the triangular lattice is (5m, 2m)-choosable.

Finding a five bicolouring of a triangle-free subgraph of the triangular lattice

A basic problem in the design of mobile telephone networks is to assign sets of radio frequency bands (colours) to transmitters (vertices) to avoid interference. Often the transmitters are laid out like vertices of a triangular lattice in the plane. We investigate the corresponding colouring problem of assigning sets of colours of size p(v) to each vertex of the triangular lattice so that the s...

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...

Defective Choosability of Graphs without Small Minors

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.

Circular chromatic number of triangle-free hexagonal graphs

An interesting connection between graph homomorphisms to odd cycles and circular chromatic number is presented. By using this connection, bounds for circular chromatic number of triangle-free hexagonal graphs (i.e. induced subgraphs of triangular lattice) are given.

3-choosability of Triangle-free Planar Graphs with Constraint on 4-cycles

A graph is k-choosable if it can be colored whenever every vertex has a list of at least k available colors. A theorem by Grötzsch [2] asserts that every triangle-free planar graph is 3-colorable. On the other hand Voigt [10] gave such a graph which is not 3-choosable. We prove that every triangle-free planar graph such that 4-cycles do not share edges with other 4and 5-cycles is 3-choosable. T...
