A graph $G$ is called local antimagic (total) if $G$ admits a local antimagic (total) labeling. A bijection $g : E \\to \\{1,2,\\ldots,q\\}$ is called a local antimagic labeling of $G$ if for any two adjacent vertices $u$ and $v$, we have $g^+(u) \\ne g^+(v)$, where $g^+(u) = \\sum_{e\\in E(u)} g(e)$, and $E(u)$ is the set of edges incident to $u$. Similarly, a bijection $f:V(G)\\cup E(G)\\to \\{1,2,\\ldots,p+q\\}$ is called a local antimagic total labeling of $G$ if for any two adjacent vertices $u$ and $v$, we have $w_f(u)\\ne w_f(v)$, where $w_f(u) = f(u) + \\sum_{e\\in E(u)} f(e)$. Thus, any local antimagic (total) labeling induces a proper vertex coloring of $G$ if vertex $v$ is assigned the color $g^+(v)$ (respectively, $w_f(u)$). The local antimagic (total) chromatic number, denoted $\\chi_{la}(G)$ (respectively $\\chi_{lat}(G)$), is the minimum number of induced colors taken over local antimagic (total) labeling of $G$. In this paper, we determined $\\chi_{lat}(G)$ where $G$ is the amalgamation of complete graphs.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2022-03-12T04:09:22.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "05C78", "05C15" ], "keywords": [ "local antimagic total labeling", "amalgamation graphs", "adjacent vertices", "complete graphs", "minimum number" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
