Abstract
Rainbow vertex-connection number is the minimum colors assignment to the vertices of the graph, such that each vertex is connected by a path whose edges have distinct colors and is denoted by . The rainbow vertex connection number can be applied to graphs resulting from operations. One of the methods to create a new graph is to perform operations between two graphs. Thus, this research uses comb product operation to determine rainbow-vertex connection number resulting from comb product operation of cycle graph and complete bipartite graph & . The research finding obtains the theorem of rainbow vertex-connection number at the graph of for while the theorem of rainbow vertex-connection number at the graph of for for .
