Abstract
A graph is chromatic‐choosable if its choice number coincides with its chromatic number. It is shown in this article that, for any graph G, if we join a sufficiently large complete graph to G, then we obtain a chromatic‐choosable graph. As a consequence, if the chromatic number of a graph G is close enough to the number of vertices in G, then G is chromatic‐choosable. We also propose a conjecture related to this fact. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Graph Theory 40: 130–135, 2002

## Abstract A proper vertex coloring of a graph __G__ = (__V,E__) is acyclic if __G__ contains no bicolored cycle. A graph __G__ is __L__‐list colorable if for a given list assignment __L__ = {L(__v__): __v__ ∈ __V__}, there exists a proper coloring __c__ of __G__ such that __c__ (__v__) ∈ __L__(_
Let S(r ) denote a circle of circumference r. The circular consecutive choosability ch cc (G) of a graph G is the least real number t such that
An L-list coloring of a graph G is a proper vertex coloring in which every vertex v gets a color from a list L(v) of allowed colors. G is called k-choosable if all lists L(v) have exactly k elements and if G is L-list colorable for all possible assignments of such lists. Verifying conjectures of Erd
## Abstract Suppose the edges of a graph __G__ are assigned 3‐element lists of real weights. Is it possible to choose a weight for each edge from its list so that the sums of weights around adjacent vertices were different? We prove that the answer is positive for several classes of graphs, includi
This paper discusses the circular version of list coloring of graphs. We give two definitions of the circular list chromatic number (or circular choosability) c;l ðGÞ of a graph G and prove that they are equivalent. Then we prove that for any graph G, c;l ðGÞ ! l ðGÞ À 1. Examples are given to show
