Abstract

The locating-chromatic number of a graph G can be defined as the cardinality of a minimum resolving partition of the vertex set V(G) such that all vertices have distinct coordinates with respect to this partition and every two adjacent vertices in G are not contained in the same partition class. In this case, the coordinate of a vertex v in G is expressed in terms of the distances of v to all partition classes. This concept is a special case of the graph partition dimension notion. Previous authors have characterized all graphs of order n with locating-chromatic number either n or n-1. They also proved that there exists a tree of order n, n≥5, having locating-chromatic number k if and only if k âˆˆ{3,4,"¦,n-2,n}. In this paper, we characterize all trees of order n with locating-chromatic number n - t, for any integers n and t, where n > t+3 and 2 ≤ t < n/2.
