Abstract

<p>In a search for triangle-free graphs with arbitrarily large chromatic numbers, Mycielski developed a graph transformation that transforms a graph <span class="math"><em>G</em></span> into a new graph <span class="math"><em>μ</em>(<em>G</em>)</span>, we now call the Mycielskian of <span class="math"><em>G</em></span>, which has the same clique number as <span class="math"><em>G</em></span> and whose chromatic number equals <span class="math"><em>χ</em>(<em>G</em>) + 1</span>. In this paper, we find the star chromatic number for the Mycielskian graph of complete graphs, paths, cycles and complete bipartite graphs.</p>
