## Abstract It is well known that every planar graph __G__ is 2βcolorable in such a way that no 3βcycle of __G__ is monochromatic. In this paper, we prove that __G__ has a 2βcoloring such that no cycle of length 3 or 4 is monochromatic. The complete graph __K__~5~ does not admit such a coloring. On
The conjecture on acyclic 5-choosability of planar graphs [Borodin et al., 2002] as yet has been verified only for several restricted classes of graphs. None of these classes allows 4-cycles. We prove that a planar graph is acyclically 5-choosable if it does not contain an i-cycle adjacent to a j-cy
The problem is considered under which conditions a 4-connected planar or projective planar graph has a Hamiltonian cycle containing certain prescribed edges and missing certain forbidden edges. The results are applied to obtain novel lower bounds on the number of distinct Hamiltonian cycles that mus
