We first give a necessary and sufficient condition for a graph G to have circular chromatic number V(G)/α(G) (where V(G) is the vertex number of G and α(G) is its independence number). From this result, we get a necessary and sufficient condition for a vertex-transitive graph to be star extremal as well as a necessary and sufficient condition for a circulant graph to be star extremal. Using these conditions, we obtain several classes of star extremal graphs.展开更多
