1-planar Graphs without 4-cycles or 5-cycles are 5-colorable

A graph is 1-planar if it can be drawn on the Euclidean plane so that each edge is crossed by at most one other edge. A proper vertex k-coloring of a graph G is defined as a vertex coloring from a set of k colors such that no two adjacent vertices have the same color. A graph that can be assigned a proper k-coloring is k-colorable. A cycle is a path of edges and vertices wherein a vertex is reachable from itself. A cycle contains k vertices and k edges is a k-cycle. In this paper, it is proved that 1-planar graphs without 4-cycles or 5-cycles are 5-colorable.
