Abstract
We study Fox 5-colorings for diagrams of 1- and 2-dimensional knots. We prove that any 5-colorable 1-knot has a non-trivially 5-colored diagram such that exactly four colors of five are assigned to the arcs of the diagram. Moreover, we prove that there is a 5-colorable 2-knot such that, for any non-trivially 5-colored diagram, all five colors are assigned to the sheets of the diagram.
