Maximum Partial List H-Coloring on P_5-free graphs in polynomial time

Maximum Partial List H-Coloring on P_5-free graphs in polynomial time

In this article we show that Maximum Partial List H-Coloring is polynomial-time solvable on P_5-free graphs for every fixed graph H. In particular, this implies that Maximum k-Colorable Subgraph is polynomial-time solvable on P_5-free graphs. This answers an open question from Agrawal, Lima, Lokshtanov, Saurabh & Sharma [SODA 2024]. This …
