For any integer k, we prove the existence of a uniquely k-colourable graph of girth at least g on at most k12(g+1) vertices whose maximal degree is at most 5k13. From this we deduce that, unless NP=RP, no polynomial time algorithm for k-Colourability on graphs G of girth g(G)≥log∣G∣/13logk and maximum degree Δ(G)≤6k13 can exist. We also study several related problems.
