Abstract
We survey the literature on those variants of the chromatic number problem where not only a proper coloring has to be found (i.e., adjacent vertices must not receive the same color) but some further local restrictions are imposed on the color assignment. Mostly, the list colorings and the precoloring extensions are considered. In one of the most general formulations, a graph G =( V, E), sets L(v) of admissible colors, and natural numbers cv for the vertices v ∈ V are given, and the question is whether there can be chosen a subset C(v) ⊆ L(v) of cardinality cv for each vertex in such a way that the sets
