Abstract
A graph G is called (k,d)*-choosable if, for every list assignment L satisfying |L(v)| ≥ k for all v ∈ V(G), there is an L-coloring of G such that each vertex of G has at most d neighbors colored with the same color as itself. R. Škrekovski, N.Eaton and T.Hull, showed that all planar graphs are (3,2)*-choosable respectively in 1993 and 1997. In this paper, we extend this result, that every K 5-minor-free graph is (3,2)*-choosable.
