On b-coloring of central graph of some graphs
On b-coloring of central graph of some graphs
The b-chromatic number of G, denoted by ϕ(G), is the maximum k for which G has a b-coloring by k colors. A b-coloring of G by k colors is a proper k-coloring of the vertices of G such that in each color class i there exists a vertex x_{i} having neighbors in all the other k-1 color classes. Such a vertex x_{i} is called a b-dominating vertex, and the set of vertices {x₁,x₂…x_{k}} is called a b-dominating system. In this paper, we are going to investigate on the b-chromatic number of Central graph of Triangular Snake graph, Sunlet graph, Helm Graph, Double Triangular Snake graph, Gear graph, and Closed Helm graph are denoted as C(T_{n}), C(S_{n}), C(H_{n}), C(DT_{n}), C(G_{n}), C(CH_{n}) respectively.
