## Abstract The measurable list chromatic number of a graph __G__ is the smallest number ΞΎ such that if each vertex __v__ of __G__ is assigned a set __L__(__v__) of measure ΞΎ in a fixed atomless measure space, then there exist sets $c(v)\subseteq L(v)$ such that each __c__(__v__) has measure one an

Abstract
In an ordinary list multicoloring of a graph, the vertices are βcoloredβ with subsets of preβassigned finite sets (called βlistsβ) in such a way that adjacent vertices are colored with disjoint sets. Here we consider the analog of such colorings in which the lists are measurable sets from an arbitrary atomless, semifinite measure space, and the color sets are to have prescribed measures rather than prescribed cardinalities. We adapt a proof technique of BollobΓ‘s and Varopoulos to prove an analog of one of the major theorems about ordinary list multicolorings, a generalization and extension of Hall's marriage theorem, due to Cropper, GyΓ‘rfΓ‘s, and Lehel.

Philip Hall's famous theorem on systems of distinct representatives and its not-so-famous improvement by Halmos and Vaughan (1950) can be regarded as statements about the existence of proper list-colorings or listmulticolorings of complete graphs. The necessary and sufficient condition for a proper
## Abstract The degree set π^G^ of a graph __G__ is the set of degrees of the vertices of __G.__ For a finite nonempty set __S__ of positive integers, all positive integers __p__ are determined for which there exists a graph __G__ of order __p__ such that π^G^ = __S__.
The following question was raised by Bruce Richter. Let G be a planar, 3-connected graph that is not a complete graph. Denoting by d(v) the degree of vertex v, is G L-list colorable for every list assignment L with |L(v)|=min{d(v), 6} for all v β V (G)? More generally, we ask for which pairs (r, k)
This note presents a solution to the following problem posed by Chen, Schelp, and SoltΓ©s: find a simple graph with the least number of vertices for which only the degrees of the vertices that appear an odd number of times are given.
Given positive integers m, k, s with m > sk, let D m,k,s represent the set {1, 2, . . . , m}\{k, 2k, . . . , sk}. The distance graph G(Z , D m,k,s ) has as vertex set all integers Z and edges connecting i and j whenever |i -j| β D m,k,s . This paper investigates chromatic numbers and circular chroma
