  • On the b-chromatic number of regular graphs [Elektronski vir]
    Cabello, Sergio ; Jakovac, Marko
    The b-chromatic number of a graph ▫$G$▫ is the largest integer ▫$k$▫ such that ▫$G$▫ admits a proper ▫$k$▫-coloring in which every color class contains at least one vertex that has a neighbor in each ... of the other color classes. We prove that every ▫$d$▫-regular graph with at least ▫$2d^3$▫ vertices has ▫$b$▫-chromatic number ▫$d+1$▫, that the ▫$b$▫-chromatic number of an arbitrary ▫$d$▫-regular graph with girth ▫$g=5$▫ is at least ▫$\lfloor \frac{d+1}{2} \rfloor$▫ and that every $d$-regular graph, ▫$d \ge 6$▫, with diameter at least ▫$d$▫ and with no ▫$4$▫-cycles admits a ▫$b$▫-coloring with ▫$d+1$▫ colors.
