A note on recognizing an old friend in a new place:list coloring and the zero-temperature Potts model [PDF]
, 2014 Here we observe that list coloring in graph theory coincides with the zero-temperature antiferromagnetic Potts model with an external field. We give a list coloring polynomial that equals the partition function in this case. This is analogous to the well-

The Electronic Journal of Combinatorics, 2017 In this paper, we introduce a new variation of list-colorings. For a graph $G$ and for a given nonnegative integer $t$, a $t$-common list assignment of $G$ is a mapping $L$ which assigns each vertex $v$ a set $L(v)$ of colors such that given set of $t$ colors belong to $L(v)$ for every $v\in V(G)$.

Edge-group choosability of outerplanar and near-outerplanar graphs [PDF]
Transactions on Combinatorics, 2020 Let $\chi_{gl}(G)$ be the {\it{group choice number}} of $G$. A graph $G$ is called {\it{edge-$k$-group choosable}} if its line graph is $k$-group choosable. The {\it{group-choice index}} of $G$, $\chi'_{gl}(G)$, is the smallest $k$ such that $G$ is edge-$

Between coloring and list-coloring: μ-coloring
Electronic Notes in Discrete Mathematics, 2005 A new variation of the coloring problem, μ-coloring, is defined in this paper. A coloring of a graph G = (V,E) is a function f : V → N such that f(v) 6= f(w) if v is adjacent to w. Given a graph G = (V,E) and a function μ : V → N, G is μ-colorable if it admits a coloring f with f(v) ≤ μ(v) for each v ∈ V .

Planar Graphs with the Distance of 6--Cycles at Least 2 from Each Other Are DP-3-Colorable
Mathematics, 2020 DP-coloring as a generalization of list coloring was introduced by Dvořák and Postle recently. In this paper, we prove that every planar graph in which the distance between 6−-cycles is at least 2 is DP-3-colorable, which extends the result of Yin and Yu

Pathwidth and Nonrepetitive List Coloring
The Electronic Journal of Combinatorics, 2016 A vertex coloring of a graph is nonrepetitive if there is no path in the graph whose first half receives the same sequence of colors as the second half. While every tree can be nonrepetitively colored with a bounded number of colors (4 colors is enough), Fiorenzi, Ochem, Ossona de Mendez, and Zhu recently showed that this does not extend to the list ...

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory, 2013 Given a graph G = (V,E) and a set Lv of admissible colors for each vertex v ∈ V (termed the list at v), a list coloring of G is a (proper) vertex coloring ϕ : V → S v2V Lv such that ϕ(v) ∈ Lv for all v ∈ V and ϕ(u) 6= ϕ(v) for all uv ∈ E.

An Analogue of DP-Coloring for Variable Degeneracy and its Applications
Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory, 2022 A graph G is list vertex k-arborable if for every k-assignment L, one can choose f(v) ∈ L(v) for each vertex v so that vertices with the same color induce a forest. In [6], Borodin and Ivanova proved that every planar graph without 4-cycles adjacent to 3-

Discrete Mathematics, 2000 Let \(R= \{1,2,\dots, r\}\) be a set of colors, and let \(\ell: V(G)\to 2^R\) be a function. A proper coloring \(c: V(G)\to R\) is said to be a list coloring if \(c(x)\in\ell(x)\) for all \(x\). If there is an integer \(s\) such that all functions \(\ell\) with \(|\ell(x)|= s\) have a list coloring, then \(G\) is said to be \(s\)-choosable. The authors

Additive List Coloring of Planar Graphs with Given Girth
Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory, 2020 An additive coloring of a graph G is a labeling of the vertices of G from {1, 2, . . . , k} such that two adjacent vertices have distinct sums of labels on their neighbors.
