Acyclic 5-choosability of planar graphs with neither 4-cycles nor chordal 6-cycles

A proper vertex coloring of a graph G=(V,E) is acyclic if G contains no bicolored cycle. A graph G is acyclically L-list colorable if for a given list assignment L={L(v):v∈V}, there exists a proper acyclic coloring ? of G such that ?(v)∈L(v) for all v∈V(G). If G is acyclically L-list colorable for any list assignment with |L(v)|≥k for all v∈V, then G is acyclically k-choosable. In this paper it is proved that every planar graph with neither 4-cycles nor chordal 6-cycles is acyclically 5-choosable. This generalizes the results of M. Montassier, A. Raspaud, W. Wang, Acyclic 5-choosability of planar graphs without small cycles, J. Graph Theory 54 (2007) 245-260], and a corollary of M. Montassier, P. Ochem, A. Raspaud, On the acyclic choosability of graphs, J. Graph Theory 51 (4) (2006) 281-300].
