Abstract
Let be a connected non-trivial graph. Let c be a proper vertex-coloring using k colors, namely . Let be a partition of induced by , where is the color class that receives the color . The color code, denoted by , is defined as , where for , and is the distance between two vertices and in G. If all vertices in have different color codes, then is called as the locating-chromatic -coloring of . The locating-chromatic number of , denoted by , is the minimum such that has a locating coloring. Let be the Buckminsterfullerene graph on vertices. Buckminsterfullerene graph is a 3-connected planar graph and a member of the fullerene graphs, representing fullerene molecules in chemistry. In this paper, we determine the locating chromatic number of the disjoint union of Buckminsterfullerene graphs, denoted by .
