Title
Thue choosability of trees
Abstract
A vertex colouring of a graph G is nonrepetitive if for any path P=(v"1,v"2,...,v"2"r) in G, the first half is coloured differently from the second half. The Thue choice number of G is the least integer @? such that for every @?-list assignment L of G, there exists a nonrepetitive L-colouring of G. We prove that for any positive integer @?, there is a tree T with @p"c"h(T)@?. On the other hand, it is proved that if G^' is a graph of maximum degree @D, and G is obtained from G^' by attaching to each vertex v of G^' a connected graph of tree-depth at most z rooted at v, then @p"c"h(G)@?c(@D,z) for some constant c(@D,d) depending only on @D and z.
