Abstract

For a given χ-coloring of a graph (V,E,ψ_G) , a dominating set S⊆V(G) is said to be dom-colouring set if it contains at least one vertex from each colour class of G. The dom-chromatic number is the minimal cardinality taken over all dom-colouring sets and is denoted by γ_dc (G). In this paper we have obtained the dom-chromatic number of various types of graphs like star graphs, windmill graphs, ladder graphs, comb graphs and for cycles.
