Relaxed game chromatic number of graphs
2003
Discrete Mathematics
This paper discusses a coloring game on graphs. Let k; d be non-negative integers and C a set of k colors. ...
Each move of Alice or Bob colors an uncolored vertex with a legal color. The game is over if either all vertices are colored, or no more vertices can be colored with a legal color. ...
Similarly, the 0-relaxed coloring game is the same as the coloring game, and the 0-relaxed game chromatic number of a graph G is the same as its game chromatic number. ...

The d-

the same game except that each vertex is allowed to have its color the same as up tc d of its neighbors so that 7,”(G) = Z(G). ...
The principle result of the paper is that for each d > 8 and each outerplanar graph G the d-relaxed game chromatic number satisfies xs (G) <2. This strongly answers the question raised by C.-Y. ...
