RAINBOW CONNECTION NUMBER AND TOTAL RAINBOW CONNECTION NUMBER OF AMALGAMATION RESULTS DIAMOND GRAPH(〖Br〗_4) AND FAN GRAPH(F_3)
Abstract
If be a graph and edge coloring of G is a function , rainbow connection number is the minimum-k coloration of the rainbow on the edge of graph G and denoted by rc(G). Rainbow connection numbers can be applied to the result of operations on some special graphs, such as diamond graphs and fan graphs. Graph operation is a method used to obtain a new graph by combining two graphs. This study performed amalgamation operations to obtain rainbow connection numbers and rainbow-total-connection numbers in diamond graphs ( ) and fan graphs ( ) or . Based on the research, it is obtained that the rainbow-connection number theorem on the amalgamation result of the diamond graph ( ) and fan graph ( is with . Furthermore, the theorem related to the total rainbow-connection number on the amalgamation result of the diamond graph( ) and the fan graph ( is obtained, namely with .
