| contents | A subset $M$ of vertices in a graph $G$ is a mutual-visibility set if for any two vertices $u,v\in{M}$ there exists a shortest $u$-$v$ path in $G$ that contains no elements of $M$ as internal vertices. Let $χ_μ(G)$ be the least number of colors needed to color the vertices of $G$, so that each color class is a mutual-visibility set. Let $n\in\mathbb{N}$ and $Q_{n}$ be an $n$-dimensional hypercube. It was proved by the authors that the maximum size of a mutual-visibility set in $Q_{n}$ is at least $Ω(2^{n})$. Klavžar, Kuziak, Valenzuela-Tripodoro, and Yero further asked whether it is true that $χ_μ(Q_{n})=O(1)$. In this note we answer their question in the negative by showing that $$ω(1)=χ_μ(Q_{n})=O(\log\log{n}).$$ |
