Bernshteyn and Lee defined a new notion, weak degeneracy, which is slightly weaker than the ordinary degeneracy. It is proved that strictly $f$-degenerate transversal is a common generalization of list coloring, $L$-forested-coloring and…

In this work, we introduce DPG-coloring using the concepts of DP-coloring and variable degeneracy to modify the proofs on the following papers: (i) DP-3-coloring of planar graphs without $4$, $9$-cycles and cycles of two lengths from $\{6,…

DP-coloring, also known as correspondence coloring, is introduced by Dvo{\v{r}}{\'{a}}k and Postle. It is a generalization of list coloring. In this paper, we show that every connected toroidal graph without triangles adjacent to $5$-cycles…

In \cite{listnoC3adjC4}), Borodin and Ivanova proved that every planar graph without $4$-cycles adjacent to $3$-cycle is list vertex-$2$-aborable. In fact, they proved a more general result. Inspired by these results and DP-coloring which…

A cover of a graph $G$ is a graph $H$ with vertex set $V(H) = \bigcup_{v \in V(G)} L_{v}$, where $L_{v} = \{v\} \times [s]$, and the edge set $M = \bigcup_{uv \in E(G)} M_{uv}$, where $M_{uv}$ is a matching between $L_{u}$ and $L_{v}$. A…

DP-coloring (also known as correspondence coloring) is a generalization of list coloring introduced recently by Dvo\v{r}\'ak and Postle (2017). In this paper, we prove that every planar graph $G$ without $4$-cycles adjacent to $k$-cycles is…

Let $f$ be a nonnegative integer valued function on the vertex set of a graph. A graph is \textbf{strictly $f$-degenerate} if each nonempty subgraph $\Gamma$ has a vertex $v$ such that $\mathrm{deg}_{\Gamma}(v) < f(v)$. In this paper, we…

Thomassen showed that planar graphs are 5-list-colourable, and that planar graphs of girth at least five are 3-list-colourable. An easy degeneracy argument shows that planar graphs of girth at least four are 4-list-colourable. In 2022,…

A graph is $k$-degenerate if every subgraph $H$ has a vertex $v$ with $d_{H}(v) \leq k$. The class of degenerate graphs plays an important role in the graph coloring theory. Observed that every $k$-degenerate graph is $(k + 1)$-choosable…

A graph $G$ is called $(d_1,\dots,d_k)$-colorable if its vertices can be partitioned into $k$ sets $V_1,\dots,V_k$ such that $\Delta(\langle V_i\rangle_G)\leq d_i, i\in \{1,\dots, k\}$. If $d_1 = \dots = d_k = m$ we say that $G$ is…

The weak degeneracy of a graph $G$ is a numerical parameter that was recently introduced by the first two authors with the aim of understanding the power of greedy algorithms for graph coloring. Every $d$-degenerate graph is weakly…

DP-coloring was introduced by Dvo\v{r}\'{a}k and Postle as a generalization of list coloring. It was originally used to solve a longstanding conjecture by Borodin, stating that every planar graph without cycles of lengths 4 to 8 is…

DP-coloring (also called correspondence coloring) is a generalization of list coloring introduced by Dvo\v{r}\'{a}k and Postle in 2015. The DP-chromatic number of a graph $G$, $\chi_{_{DP}}(G)$, is the analogue of the chromatic number of…

A generalization of list-coloring, now known as DP-coloring, was recently introduced by Dvo\v{r}\'{a}k and Postle. Essentially, DP-coloring assigns an arbitrary matching between lists of colors at adjacent vertices, as opposed to only…

DP-coloring (also known as correspondence coloring) is a generalization of list coloring, introduced by Dvo\v{r}\'ak and Postle in 2017. It is well-known that there are non-4-choosable planar graphs. Much attention has recently been put on…

Motivated by the study of greedy algorithms for graph coloring, we introduce a new graph parameter, which we call weak degeneracy. By definition, every $d$-degenerate graph is also weakly $d$-degenerate. On the other hand, if $G$ is weakly…
