Title
Six-Critical Graphs on the Klein Bottle
Abstract
We exhibit an explicit list of nine graphs such that a graph drawn in the Klein bottle is 5-colorable if and only if it has no subgraph isomorphic to a member of the list. This answers a question of Thomassen [J. Comb. Theory Ser. B 70 (1997), 67–100] and implies an earlier result of Král', Mohar, Nakamoto, Pangrác and Suzuki that an Eulerian triangulation of the Klein bottle is 5-colorable if and only if it has no complete subgraph on six vertices.
