Sommario:
  • In this article, we study radio \(k\)-colorings of simple connected graphs \(G\) with diameter \(d\), where a radio \(k\)-coloring \(g\) assigns non-negative integers to \(V(G)\) (vertices of \(G\)) such that \(|g(u) - g(v)| \geq 1 + k - d(u, v)\) for any two vertices \(u, v\) with \(1 \leq k \leq d\). The span of a radio \(k\)-coloring \(g\), expressed by \(rc_k(g)\), is the maximum integer assigned by \(g\), and the radio \(k\)-chromatic number \(rc_k(G)\) is the minimum span among all radio \(k\)-colorings of \(G\). A coloring \(g\) is minimal if \(rc_k(g) = rc_k(G)\). When \(k = d-1\), this coloring is known as the antipodal coloring, and \(rc_{d-1}(G)\) referred to as the antipodal number, is denoted by \(ac(G)\). We derive a sufficient condition for an antipodal coloring to be minimal and apply this criterion to determine the antipodal number of the generalized Petersen graph \(GP(n,1)\) for all \(n\) except when \(n \equiv 2 \pmod{8}\), and for toroidal grids \(T_{r,s} = C_r \square C_s\) when \(rs\) is even. Additionally, we establish a lower bound for \(ac(T_{r,s})\) when \(rs\) is odd.
