Multiple list coloring of 3‐choice critical graphs

Abstract: A graph G is called 3-choice critical if G is not 2-choosable but any proper subgraph is 2-choosable. A characterization of 3-choice critical graphs was given by Voigt in 1998. Voigt conjectured that if G is a bipartite 3-choice critical graph, then G is m m (4 , 2)choosable for every integer m. This conjecture was disproved by Meng et al. in 2017. They showed that if G = Θ r s t , , where r s t , , have the same parity and r s t min{ , , } 3 ≥ , or G = Θ p 2,2,2,2 with p 2 ≥ , then G is How to cite this artic… Show more

“…The following is a key lemma for the proof in this paper. It generalizes Lemma 9 in [10], which is a special case where and k = 2m − τ are even. Lemma 2.9 Let and k be fixed integers, where k ≥ 1, > k, 0 ≤ τ ≤ m. Assume x, y are non-negative integers with x + y ≤ .…”

“…The proof of Theorem 1.3 uses the idea in [5,10]: Assume G is a graph as in Theorem 1.3 and L is a (2m + 1)-list assignment of G. Let u, v be the two vertices of G of degree at least 3. Then G − {u, v} is the disjoint union of a family of three or four paths, where each end vertex of these paths has exactly one neighbour in {u, v} unless the path consists of a single vertex w, in which case w is adjacent to both u and v. Other vertices of the paths are not adjacent to u or v.…”

“…Nevertheless, the other bipartite 3‐choice‐critical graphs, that is, two vertex‐disjoint even cycles joined by a path, two even cycles with one vertex in common, normalΘ2,2s,2t ${{\rm{\Theta }}}_{2,2s,2t}$ with s,t>1 $s,t\gt 1$, and normalΘ1,2s+1,2t+1 ${{\rm{\Theta }}}_{1,2s+1,2t+1}$ with s,t>0 $s,t\gt 0$, are MathClass-open(4,2MathClass-close) $(4,2)$‐choosable [5]. Xu and Zhu [10] strengthened these results and proved that these graphs are also MathClass-open(4m,2mMathClass-close) $(4m,2m)$‐choosable for all integer m $m$. So chfsMathClass-open(GMathClass-close)=2 $c{h}_{f}^{s}(G)=2$ if one of the following holds: …”
