Abstract
A -coloring of is a mapping such that for every , has maximum degree at most , where denotes the subgraph induced by the vertices colored . Borodin and Raspaud conjecture that every planar graph without -cycles and intersecting triangles is -colorable. We prove in this paper that such graphs are -colorable.
