  • Abstract
    This paper discusses a variation of the game chromatic number of a graph: the game coloring number. This parameter provides an upper bound for the game chromatic number of a graph. We show that the game coloring number of a planar graph is at most 19. This implies that the game chromatic number of a planar graph is at most 19, which improves the previous known upper bound for the game chromatic number of planar graphs.
