Abstract:
A proper edge-coloring of a graph G is a mapping α : E(G) → N such that α(e) 6= α(e 0 ) for every pair of adjacent edges e, e0 ∈ E(G). A proper edge-coloring of a graph G with colors 1, . . . , t is called a complete t-edgecoloring if for every pair of colors i and j, there are two edges with a common vertex, one colored by i and the other colored by j. The largest value of t for which G has a complete t-edge-coloring is called the achromatic index ψ 0 (G) of G. In this paper we study the achromatic index of complete and complete bipartite graphs. In particular, we prove that for any m, n ∈ N, ψ 0 (Km+n+1) ≥ ψ 0 (Km,n)+m+n−1. We also prove that for any m, n ∈ N, ψ 0 (Km,n) ≥ ψ 0 K m (m,n) , n (m,n) ψ 0 K(m,n) + 1 , where (m, n) is the greatest common divisor of m and n
