Abstract

Let k and r be two positive integers. An r-dynamic coloring of a graph G is a proper k-coloring \(\varphi \) such that \(\mid \varphi (N_{G}(v))\mid \ge \) min\(\{d_{G}(v),r\}\) for each \(v\in V(G)\). In this paper, we study the r-dynamic coloring of planar graphs without 3-,5-cycle, and 4-cycle is not adjacent to \(7^{-}\)-cycles. We prove that the upper bound of r-dynamic chromatic number of such graph is \(r+3\) if \(r\ge 14\).
