Choosability with union separation

List coloring generalizes graph coloring by requiring the color of a vertex to be selected from a list of colors specific to that vertex. One refinement of list coloring, called choosability with separation, requires that the intersection of adjacent lists is sufficiently small. We introduce a new refinement, called choosability with union separation, where we require that the union of adjacent lists is sufficiently large. For $t\ge k$, a $(k,t)$-list assignment is a list assignment $L$ where $\left|L\left(v\right)\right|\ge k$ for all vertices $v$ and $|L\left(u\right)\cup L\left(v\right)|\ge t$ for all edges $uv$. A graph is $(k,t)$-choosable if there is a proper coloring for every $(k,t)$-list assignment. We explore this concept through examples of graphs that are not $(k,t)$-choosable, demonstrating sparsity conditions that imply a graph is $(k,t)$-choosable, and proving that all planar graphs are $(3,11)$-choosable and $(4,9)$-choosable.
