摘要: The total chromatic number XT(G) of a graph G is the minimum number of colors needed to color the elements (vertices and edges) of G such that no adjacent or incident pair of elements receive the same color. G is called Type 1 if XT(G)=Δ(G) + 1. In this paper we prove that the join of a complete bipartite graph Km,n and a cycle Cn is of Type 1.

Abstract: The total chromatic number XT(G) of a graph G is the minimum number of colors needed to color the elements (vertices and edges) of G such that no adjacent or incident pair of elements receive the same color. G is called Type 1 if XT(G)=Δ(G) + 1. In this paper we prove that the join of a complete bipartite graph Km,n and a cycle Cn is of Type 1.
