Abstract

Let c be a vertex coloring of a simple; connected graph G that uses positive integers for colors. For a vertex v of G; the color sum of v is the sum of the colors of the neighbors of v. If no two adjacent vertices of G have the same color sum; then c is called a sigma coloring of G. The sigma chromatic number of G is the minimum number of colors required in a sigma coloring of G. Let max(c) be the largest color assigned to a vertex of G by a coloring c. The sigma value of G is the minimum value of max(c) over all sigma k−colorings c of G where k is the sigma chromatic number of G. On the other hand; the sigma range of G is the minimum value of max(c) over all sigma colorings c of G. In this paper; we determine the sigma value and the sigma range of the join of a finite number of even cycles of the same order.
