The b-chromatic number of power graphs

The b-chromatic number of a graph G is defined as the maximum number k of colors that can be used to color the vertices of G, such that we obtain a proper coloring and each color i, with 1 ≤ i≤ k, has at least one representant x i adjacent to a vertex of every color j, 1 ≤ j ≠ i ≤ k. In...
