DP-coloring (also called correspondence coloring) is a well-studied generalization of list coloring introduced by Dvo\v{r}\'{a}k and Postle in 2015. The following sharp bound on the DP-chromatic number of the Cartesian product of graphs $G$…

In order to solve a question on list coloring of planar graphs, Dvo\v{r}\'{a}k and Postle introduced the concept of so called DP-coloring, thereby extending the concept of list-coloring. DP-coloring was anaylized in detail by Bernshteyn,…

By a graph we mean a finite undirected graph having multiple edges but no loops. Given a graph property $\mathcal{P}$, a $\mathcal{P}$-coloring of a graph $G$ with color set $C$ is a mapping $\f:V(G)\to C$ such that for each color $c\in C$…

A \emph{request} on a graph assigns a preferred color to a subset of the vertices. A graph $G$ is \emph{$\epsilon$-flexibly $k$-choosable} if for every $k$-list assignment $L$ and every request $r$ on $G$, there is an $L$-coloring such that…
