Abstract

Giving a planar graph $G$, let $\chi'_l(G)$ and $\chi''_l(G)$ denote the list edge chromatic number and list total chromatic number of $G$ respectively. It is proved that if a planar graph $G$ without 6-cycles with chord, then $\chi'_l(G)\leq\Delta(G)+1$ and $\chi''_l(G)\leq\Delta(G)+2$ where $\Delta(G)\geq6$.

Keywords: list coloring, planar graph, choosability
