Abstract

For a simple graph G, let P(G;λ) be the chromatic polynomial of G. Two graphs G and H are said to be chromatically equivalent, denoted G ~ H if P(G;λ) = P(H;λ). A graph G is said to be chromatically unique, if H ~ G implies that H ≅ G. Chia [4] determined the chromatic equivalence class of the graph consisting of the join of p copies of the path each of length 3. In this paper, we determined the chromatic equivalence class of the graph consisting of the join of p copies of the complete tripartite graph K1,2,3. MSC: 05C15;05C60
