Planar graphs without 7-cycles and butterflies are DP-4-colorable (1907.06789v2)

Published 15 Jul 2019 in math.CO

Abstract: DP-coloring (also known as correspondence coloring) is a generalization of list coloring, introduced by Dvo\v{r}\'ak and Postle in 2017. It is well-known that there are non-4-choosable planar graphs. Much attention has recently been put on sufficient conditions for planar graphs to be DP-$4$-colorable. In particular, for each $k \in {3, 4, 5, 6}$, every planar graph without $k$-cycles is DP-$4$-colorable. In this paper, we prove that every planar graph without $7$-cycles and butterflies is DP-$4$-colorable. Our proof can be easily modified to prove other sufficient conditions that forbid clusters formed by many triangles.
