A sufficient condition for planar graphs to be 3-colorable

Planar graphs without 3-cycles at distance less than 4 and without 5-cycles are proved to be 3-colorable. We conjecture that, moreover, each plane graph with neither 5-cycles nor intersecting 3-cycles is 3-colorable. In this conjecture, none of the two assumptions can be dropped because there exist planar 4-chromatic graphs without 5-cycles, as well as planar 4chromatic graphs without intersect...

A note on 3-choosability of planar graphs without certain cycles

Steinberg asked whether every planar graph without 4 and 5 cycles is 3-colorable. Borodin, and independently Sanders and Zhao, showed that every planar graph without any cycle of length between 4 and 9 is 3-colorable. We improve this result by showing that every planar graph without any cycle of length 4, 5, 6, or 9 is 3-choosable. © 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Planar graphs without cycles of length from 4 to 7 are 3-colorable

Planar graphs without cycles of length from 4 to 7 are proved to be 3-colorable. Moreover, it is proved that each proper 3-coloring of a face of length from 8 to 11 in a connected plane graph without cycles of length from 4 to 7 can be extended to a proper 3-coloring of the whole graph. This improves on the previous results on a long standing conjecture of Steinberg. © 2004 Elsevier Inc. All ri...

A note on the not 3-choosability of some families of planar graphs

A graph G is L-list colorable if for a given list assignment L= {L(v): v ∈ V }, there exists a proper coloring c of G such that c(v) ∈ L(v) for all v ∈ V . If G is L-list colorable for any list assignment with |L(v)| k for all v ∈ V , then G is said k-choosable. In [M. Voigt, A not 3-choosable planar graph without 3-cycles, Discrete Math. 146 (1995) 325–328] and [M. Voigt, A non-3choosable plan...
