In this present paper, we have proved for the line graph of double star graph, the harmonious chromatic number and the achromatic number are equal. As a motivation this work can be extended by classifying the different families of graphs for which these two numbers are equal.

A b-coloring of a graph G is a proper coloring of the vertices of G such that there exists a vertex in each color class joined to at least one vertex in each other color classes. The b-chromatic number of a graph G, denoted by [Formula: see text], is the maximum integer [Formula: see text] such that G admits a b-coloring with [Formula: see text] colors. In this paper we introduce a new concept, the b-chromatic sum of a graph [Formula: see text], denoted by [Formula: see text] and is defined as the minimum of sum of colors [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] for all [Formula: see text] in a b-coloring of [Formula: see text] using [Formula: see text] colors. Also obtained the b-chromatic sum of paths, cycles, wheel graph, complete graph, star graph, double star graph, complete bipartite graph, corona of paths and corona of cycles.


The structural properties, achromatic number and b-chromatic number of central graph of double star graph and triple star graph have been studied in [6]. In this paper, these studies have been carried out, for the central graph of any multi star graph and central graph of shadow graph of star graph and double star graph.

In this paper, we investigate the $b$-chromatic number for the theta graph $\theta(s_1, s_2, \cdots, s_n)$, middle graph of theta graph $M(G)$, total graph of theta graph $T(G)$, line graph of theta graph $L(G)$ and the central graph of theta graph $C(G)$.

Abstract In this paper, we determine the r-dynamic chromatic number of the fan graph Fm,n and determine sharp bounds of this graph invariant for four related families of graphs: The middle graph M(Fm,n ), the total graph T (Fm,n ), the central graph C(Fm,n ) and the line graph L(Fm,n ). In addition, we determine the r-dynamic chromatic number of each one of these four families of graphs in case of being m = 1.

We prove that if $G$ is the line graph of a multigraph, then the chromatic number $\chi(G)$ of $G$ is at most $\max\left\{\omega(G), \frac{7\Delta(G) + 10}{8}\right\}$ where $\omega(G)$ and $\Delta(G)$ are the clique number and the maximum degree of $G$, respectively. Thus Brooks' Theorem holds for line graphs of multigraphs in much stronger form. Using similar methods we then prove that if $G$ is the line graph of a multigraph with $\chi(G) \geq \Delta(G) \geq 9$, then $G$ contains a clique on $\Delta(G)$ vertices. Thus the Borodin-Kostochka Conjecture holds for line graphs of multigraphs.
