Krivelevich–Alon conjecture on the list chromatic number of bipartite graphs
Let be a bipartite graph with maximum degree at most , and let be a positive integer. The graph is -choosable if every assignment of lists of colours to its vertices admits a proper colouring from those lists. Krivelevich–Alon conjecture. There is an absolute constant such that is -choosable whenever . This conjecture extends the asymptotic behaviour of complete bipartite graphs to all bipartite graphs of maximum degree . The source presents it as an open conjecture and notes that the paper's results give partial progress, especially in asymmetric cases.
