    Distinguishing Number for some Circulant Graphs

    Full text link
    Introduced by Albertson et al. \cite{albertson}, the distinguishing number D(G)D(G) of a graph GG is the least integer rr such that there is a rr-labeling of the vertices of GG that is not preserved by any nontrivial automorphism of GG. Most of graphs studied in literature have 2 as a distinguishing number value except complete, multipartite graphs or cartesian product of complete graphs depending on nn. In this paper, we study circulant graphs of order nn where the adjacency is defined using a symmetric subset AA of Zn\mathbb{Z}_n, called generator. We give a construction of a family of circulant graphs of order nn and we show that this class has distinct distinguishing numbers and these lasters are not depending on nn
