Abstract: This paper studies the on-line choice number on complete multipartite graphs with independence number m. We give a unified strategy for every prescribed m. Our main result leads to several interesting consequences comparable to known results. (1) If k1−sump=2m(fracp22−frac3p2+1)kpgeq0, where kp denotes the number of parts of cardinality p, then G is on-line chromatic-choosable. (2) If |V(G)|leqfracm2−m+2m2−3m+4chi(G), then G is on-line chromatic-choosable. (3) The on-line choice number of regular complete multipartite graphs Kmstark is at most (m+frac12−sqrt2m−2)k for mgeq3.


Summary: This paper studies the on-line choice number on complete multipartite graphs with independence number \(m\). We give a unified strategy for every prescribed \(m\). Our main result leads to several interesting consequences comparable to known results. (1) If \(k_1-\sum_{p=2}^m\left(\frac{p^2}{2}-\frac{3p}{2}+1\right)k_p\geqslant 0\), where \(k_p\) denotes the number of parts of cardinality \(p\), then \(G\) is on-line chromatic-choosable. (2) If \(|V(G)|\leq\frac{m^2-m+2}{m^2-3m+4}\chi(G)\), then \(G\) is on-line chromatic-choosable. (3) The on-line choice number of regular complete multipartite graphs \(K_{m\star k}\) is at most \(\left(m+\frac{1}{2}-\sqrt{2m-2}\right)k\) for \(m\geq 3\).
