Edge-choosability and total-choosability of planar graphs with no adjacent 3-cycles

Daniel W. Cranston — 2009

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Let G be a planar graph with no two 3-cycles sharing an edge. We show that if Δ(G) ≥ 9, then χ'ₗ(G) = Δ(G) and χ''ₗ(G) = Δ(G)+1. We also show that if Δ(G) ≥ 6, then χ'ₗ(G) ≤ Δ(G)+1 and if Δ(G) ≥ 7, then χ''ₗ(G) ≤ Δ(G)+2. All of these results extend to graphs in the projective plane and when Δ(G) ≥ 7 the results also extend to graphs in the torus and Klein bottle. This second edge-choosability result improves on work of Wang and Lih and of Zhang and Wu. All of our results use the discharging method...

The 1 , 2 , 3-Conjecture And 1 , 2-Conjecture For Sparse Graphs

Daniel W. CranstonSogol JahanbekamDouglas B. West — 2014

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

The 1, 2, 3-Conjecture states that the edges of a graph without isolated edges can be labeled from {1, 2, 3} so that the sums of labels at adjacent vertices are distinct. The 1, 2-Conjecture states that if vertices also receive labels and the vertex label is added to the sum of its incident edge labels, then adjacent vertices can be distinguished using only {1, 2}. We show that various configurations cannot occur in minimal counterexamples to these conjectures. Discharging then confirms the conjectures...
