“…On the other hand, if the face f has length k with k ≥ 6, then not every precoloring of its vertices can be extended to a 3-coloring of G. The cases when k = 6, 7, 8, 9 were completely characterized in [20], [4], [17], and [12], respectively. Moreover, precoloring faces in planar graph of girth at least 5 have also been studied (see, e.g., [12] for more details).…”
