    Full text link
    The \textit{Distinguishing Chromatic Number} of a graph GG, denoted χD(G)\chi_D(G), was first defined in \cite{collins} as the minimum number of colors needed to properly color GG such that no non-trivial automorphism ϕ\phi of the graph GG fixes each color class of GG. In this paper, we consider random Cayley graphs Γ(A,S)\Gamma(A,S) defined over certain abelian groups AA and show that with probability at least 1nΩ(logn)1-n^{-\Omega(\log n)} we have, χD(Γ)χ(Γ)+1\chi_D(\Gamma)\le\chi(\Gamma) + 1.Comment: 11 page
