摘要

A b-coloring of a graph G is a proper coloring of the vertices of G such that there exists a vertex in each color class joined to at least one vertex in each other color class. The b-chromatic number of a graph G, denoted by \(\varphi (\textit{G})\) , is the largest integer k such that G has a b-coloring with k colors. In this paper, the \(\textit{b}\) -chromatic number and b-chromatic sum of \((P_{n}\circ G)^{p}\) , where \((P_{n}\circ G)^p\) is the power graph of corona of the path \(P_n\) and G with power p is discussed. Also discussed the b-continuity property of \((P_{n}\circ G)^{p}.\)
