The packing chromatic number of hypercubes

Abstract: The packing chromatic number χ ρ (G) of a graph G is the smallest integer k needed to proper color the vertices of G in such a way that the distance in G between any two vertices having color i be at least i + 1. Goddard et al. [8] found an upper bound for the packing chromatic number of hypercubes Q n . Moreover, they compute χ ρ (Q n ) for n ≤ 5 leaving as an open problem the remaining cases. In this paper, we obtain a better upper bound for χ ρ (Q n ) and we compute the exact value of χ ρ (Q n ) for 6 ≤ n ≤… Show more
