摘要
The number of proper vertex-3-colorings of every triangle-free planar graph with n vertices and with no separating cycle of length 4 or 5 is at least 2n/17700000. On the other hand, for infinitely many n, there exists a triangle-free planar graph with separating cycles of length 4 and 5 whose number of proper vertex-3-colorings is < 215n/ log2(n).
