The [Formula: see text]-total choice number of [Formula: see text], denoted by [Formula: see text], is the minimum [Formula: see text] such that [Formula: see text] is [Formula: see text]-[Formula: see text]-total choosable. It was proved in [Y. Yu, X. Zhang and G. Z. Liu, List (d,1)-total labeling of graphs embedded in surfaces, Oper. Res. Trans. 15(3) (2011) 29–37.] that [Formula: see text] if [Formula: see text] is a graph embedded in surface with Euler characteristic [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] big enough. In this paper, we prove that: (i) if [Formula: see text] is a planar graph with [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]-cycle is not adjacent to [Formula: see text]-cycle, [Formula: see text], then [Formula: see text]; (ii) if [Formula: see text] is a planar graph with [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]-cycle is not adjacent to [Formula: see text]-cycle, where [Formula: see text], then [Formula: see text].

Regarding the 2-[Formula: see text] coloring of planar graphs, in 1977, Wegner conjectured that for a graph [Formula: see text]: (1) [Formula: see text] if [Formula: see text]. (2) [Formula: see text] if [Formula: see text]. (3) [Formula: see text] if [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we proved that for every planar graph with maximum degree [Formula: see text]: (1) [Formula: see text] if [Formula: see text]. (2) [Formula: see text] if [Formula: see text].

A signed graph is a pair [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is a graph and [Formula: see text] is a signature of [Formula: see text]. A set [Formula: see text] of integers is symmetric if [Formula: see text] implies that [Formula: see text]. Given a list assignment [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text], an [Formula: see text]-coloring of a signed graph [Formula: see text] is a coloring [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] such that [Formula: see text] for each [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] for every edge [Formula: see text]. The signed choice number [Formula: see text] of a graph [Formula: see text] is defined to be the minimum integer [Formula: see text] such that for any [Formula: see text]-list assignment [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] and for any signature [Formula: see text] on [Formula: see text], there is a proper [Formula: see text]-coloring of [Formula: see text]. List signed coloring is a generalization of list coloring. However, the difference between signed choice number and choice number can be arbitrarily large. Hu and Wu [Planar graphs without intersecting [Formula: see text]-cycles are [Formula: see text]-choosable, Discrete Math. 340 (2017) 1788–1792] showed that every planar graph without intersecting 5-cycles is 4-choosable. In this paper, we prove that [Formula: see text] if [Formula: see text] is a planar graph without intersecting 5-cycles, which extends the main result of [D. Hu and J. Wu, Planar graphs without intersecting [Formula: see text]-cycles are [Formula: see text]-choosable, Discrete Math. 340 (2017) 1788–1792].

Abstract A (not necessarily proper) vertex colouring of a graph has clustering c if every monochromatic component has at most c vertices. We prove that planar graphs with maximum degree $\Delta$ are 3-colourable with clustering $O(\Delta^2)$ . The previous best bound was $O(\Delta^{37})$ . This result for planar graphs generalises to graphs that can be drawn on a surface of bounded Euler genus with a bounded number of crossings per edge. We then prove that graphs with maximum degree $\Delta$ that exclude a fixed minor are 3-colourable with clustering $O(\Delta^5)$ . The best previous bound for this result was exponential in $\Delta$ .
