AbstractLet
c :V (G ) → {1, . . . ,ℓ } = [ℓ ] be a proper vertex coloring ofG andC (i ) = {u ∈V (G ):c (u ) =i } fori ∈ [ℓ ]. Thek -color coderk (v |c ) of vertexv is the orderedℓ -tuple (aG (v ,C (1)), . . . ,aG (v ,C (ℓ ))) whereIf every two vertices have different color codes, thenc is a (k ,ℓ )-locating coloring ofG . Thek -locating chromatic number of graphG , denoted by , is the smallest integerℓ such thatG has a (k ,ℓ )-locating coloring. In this paper, we propose this concept as an extension of diam(G )-locating chromatic number and 2-locating chromatic number which are known as the locating chromatic number, denotedχL (G ), and neighbor-locating chromatic number, denoted , respectively. In this paper, we give sharp bounds for and whereG ◦H and are the corona and edge corona ofG andH , respectively. We formulate an integer linear programming model to determine , noting that almost all graphs have diameter 2 and for every graphG of diameter 2. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]- Published
