New Bounds on the List-Chromatic Index of the Complete Graph and Other Simple Graphs

Roland Häggkvist, Jeannette Janssen · Combinatorics Probability Computing · 1997

In this paper we show that the list chromatic index of the complete graph Kn is at most n. This proves the list-chromatic conjecture for complete graphs of odd order. We also prove the asymptotic result that for a simple graph with maximum degree d the list chromatic index exceeds d by at most [Oscr ](d2/3√log d).
