Complexity issues on bounded restrictive H-coloring Original Research Article

We consider a bounded version of the restrictive and the restrictive list H-coloring problem in which the number of pre-images of certain vertices of H is taken as parameter. We consider the decision and the counting versions, as well as, further variations of those problems. We provide complexity results identifying the cases when the problems are NP-complete or #P-complete or polynomial time solvable. We conclude stating some open problems.
