Abstract

It has been conjectured that for every claw-free graph G the choice number of G is equal to its chromatic number. We focus on the special case of this conjecture where G is perfect. Claw-free perfect graphs can be decomposed via clique-cutset into two special classes called elementary graphs and peculiar graphs. Based on this decomposition we prove that the conjecture holds true for every claw-free perfect graph with maximum clique size at most 4.
