A note on a Brooks' type theorem for DP‐coloring

Seog‐Jin Kim, Kenta Ozeki · Journal of Graph Theory · 2018

Abstract Dvořák and Postle introduced DP‐coloring of simple graphs as a generalization of list‐coloring. They proved a Brooks' type theorem for DP‐coloring; and Bernshteyn, Kostochka, and Pron extended it to DP‐coloring of multigraphs. However, detailed structure, when a multigraph does not admit DP‐coloring, was not specified. In this note, we make this point clear and give the complete structure. This is also motivated by the relation to signed coloring of signed graphs.
