## Abstract A __star coloring__ of a graph is a proper vertex‐coloring such that no path on four vertices is 2‐colored. We prove that the vertices of every bipartite planar graph can be star colored from lists of size 14, and we give an example of a bipartite planar graph that requires at least eig

## Abstract Given a bipartite graph __G__(__U__∪__V, E__) with __n__ vertices on each side, an independent set __I__∈__G__ such that |__U__∩__I__|=|__V__∩__I__| is called a balanced bipartite independent set. A balanced coloring of __G__ is a coloring of the vertices of __G__ such that each color c

It is proved that there is a function f: N Q N such that the following holds. Let G be a graph embedded in a surface of Euler genus g with all faces of even size and with edge-width \ f(g). Then (i) If every contractible 4-cycle of G is facial and there is a face of size > 4, then G is 3-colorable.

If the vertices of a graph G are partitioned into k classes V~, I/2 ..... Vk such that each V~ is an independent set and I1V~I-IV~[I ~< 1 for all i#j, then G is said to be equitably colored with k colors. The smallest integer n for which G can be equitably colored with n colors is called the equitab
