A b-coloring of graph 𝐺 is a proper 𝑘-coloring 𝐶 that verifies the following property: for every color class 𝑐𝑖, 1≤𝑖≤𝑘, there exists a vertex 𝑥𝑖, with color 𝑐𝑖, such that all the other colors in 𝐶 are utilized in 𝑥𝑖 neighbors. The b-chromatic number of a graph 𝐺, denoted by 𝜑(𝐺), is the largest integer 𝑘 such that 𝐺 may have a b-coloring by 𝑘 colors. In this paper we discuss the b-coloring of prism graph 𝑌𝑛, central graph of prism graph 𝐶(𝑌𝑛), middle graph of prism graph 𝑀(𝑌𝑛) and the total graph of prism graph 𝑇(𝑌𝑛) and we …
