A graph G is ( a , b ) ‐ choosable if given any list assignment L with ∣ L ( v ) ∣ = a for each v ∈ V ( G ) there exists a function φ such that φ ( v ) ⊆ L ( v )and ∣ φ ( v ) ∣ = b for all v ∈ V ( G ) , and whenever vertices x and y are adjacent φ ( x ) ∩ φ ( y ) = ∅ . Meng, Puleo, and Zhu conjectured a characterization of (4,2)‐choosable graphs. We prove their conjecture.
