that $|c(N (v))| \geq min\{r, d(v)\}$ for each vertex $v$ in $V

$\chi_d(G)$. By simple observation it is easy to see that
$\chi_r(G)\le \chi_{r+1}(G)$, however $\chi_{r+1}(G)-\chi_r(G)$ can
be arbitrarily large, for example
$\chi(Petersen)=2,\chi_d(Petersen)=3$, but $\chi_3(Petersen)=10$.

\section*{Introduction}
We refer all basic definition of graph to a handbook of graph theory
written by Gross {\it et. al} \cite{Gross}. Let $G=(V,E)$ be a
simple, connected and undirected graph with vertex set $V$ and edge
set $E$, and $d(v)$ be a degree of any $v\in V(G)$. The maximum
degree and the minimum degree of $G$ are denoted by $\Delta(G)$ and
$\delta(G)$, respectively. By a proper $k$-coloring  of a graph $G$,
we mean a map $ c : V (G) \rightarrow S$, where $|S| = k$, such that
any two adjacent vertices receive different colors. An $r$-dynamic
$k$-coloring is a proper $k$-coloring $c$ of $G$ such that $|c(N
(v))| \geq min\{r, d(v)\}$ for each vertex $v$ in $V (G)$, where $N
(v)$ is the neighborhood of $v$ and $c(S) = \{c(v) : v \in S\}$ for
a vertex subset $S$. The $r$-dynamic chromatic number, written as
$\chi_r(G)$, is the minimum $k$ such that $G$ has an $r$-dynamic
$k$-coloring. Note that the $1$-dynamic chromatic number of graph is
equal to its chromatic number, denoted by $\chi(G)$, and the
$2$-dynamic chromatic number was introduced by Montgomery
\cite{Mont} under the name a dynamic chromatic number, denoted by
$\chi_d(G)$. He conjectured $\chi_2(G) \leq \chi(G)+2$ when $G$ is
regular, which remains open. Akbari {\it et. al} \cite{Akbari}
proved Montgomery's conjecture for bipartite regular graphs. Lai,
{\it et.al} \cite{Lai} proved $\chi_2(G) \leq \Delta(G)+1$ when
$\Delta(G) \geq 3$ and no component contains $C_5$. Kim {\it et. al}
\cite{Kim2} proved $\chi_2(G) \leq 4$ when $G$ is planar and no
component is $C_5$ and also $\chi_d \leq 5$ whenever $G$ is planar.

Obviously, $\chi(G) \le \chi_2 (G)$, but it was shown in \cite{Lai}
that the difference between the chromatic number and the dynamic
chromatic number can be arbitrarily large. However, it was
conjectured that for regular graphs the difference is at most 2.
Some properties of dynamic coloring were studied in
\cite{Kim2,Akbari,Lai}. It was proved in \cite{Brook} that, for a
connected graph $G$, if $\Delta(G) \le 3$, then $\chi_2(G) \le 4$
unless $G = C_5$, in which case $\chi_2(C_5)=5$ and if $\Delta(G)
\ge 4$ then $\chi (G)\le \Delta + 1$. Considering those results,
finding an exact value of $\chi_r(G)$ is significantly useful  as
there are a little number of results provide an exact value of
$\chi_r(G)$. Thus, in this paper we will show it when $G$ is an
operation of special graphs.


\section*{Some Useful Lemmas}

\hspace{0.6cm}The following lemmas are useful for determining the
dynamic coloring of graphs. Jahanbekam {\it et. al} \cite{Jahan}
characterize the upper bound of $\chi_r(G)$ in term of the diameter
of graph.

\begin{Theor}\label{fff}\cite{Jahan}
If $diam(G) = 2$, then $\chi_2(G) \le  \chi(G) + 2$, with equality
holds only when $G$ is a complete bipartite graph or $C_5$.
\end{Theor}

\begin{Theor}\label{ggg}\cite{Jahan}
If $G$ is a $k$-chromatic graph with diameter at most 3, then
$\chi_2 (G) \le 3k$, and this bound is sharp when $k \ge 2$.
\end{Theor}

In term of the maximum degree of graph, the $r$-dynamic of graph
satisfies as follows

\begin{observation}\label{aaa}\cite{Jahan}
$\chi_r(G) \geq min\{\Delta(G),r\}+1$, and this is sharp. If
$\Delta(G)\le r$ then $\chi_r(G) = min\{\Delta(G),r\}$.
\end{observation}

\begin{Theor}\label{eee}\cite{Jahan}
$\chi_r(G) \le r\Delta(G) +1$, with equality for $r \ge 2$ if and
only if $G$ is $r$-regular with diameter $2$ and girth
$5$.
\end{Theor}

The last for the graph operations,  Jahanbekam {\it et. al} proved
the following theorem.

\begin{Theor}\label{ddd}\cite{Jahan}
If $\delta(G) \ge r$ then $\chi_r(G\Box H) = max\{\chi (G),
\chi(H)\}$.
\end{Theor}

\section*{The Results}
\hspace{0.6cm}Now, we are ready to show our results on $r$-dynamic
coloring for some special graph operations. Apart from showing the
$r$-dynamic chromatic number we also show the colors $c(v\in V(G))$
for clarity. Some graph operations which have been found in this
paper are $P_n+C_m,C_n \Box S_m, C_n \otimes S_m, C_n [S_m],C_n
\odot S_m, shack(P_n\Box C_m,v,s), \newline amal(P_n\Box C_m,v,s)$.

%%%%%%%%%%%%1
\begin{Theor}\label{teotribun}
Let $G$ be a joint $P_n$ and $C_m$. For $n \geq 2$ dan $m \geq 3$,
the $r$-dynamic chromatic number of $G$ is
\begin{displaymath}
\chi(P_n+C_m)=\chi_d(P_n+C_m)=\chi_3(P_n+C_m)= \left\{
\begin{array}{ll}
\ 4, & {\rm for}\,\, $m$\,\, {\rm even} \\
\ 5, & {\rm for}\,\, $m$\,\, {\rm odd}\\
\end{array} \right.
\end{displaymath}
\begin{displaymath}
\chi_4(P_n+C_m)= \left\{
\begin{array}{ll}
\ 5, & {\rm for}\,\, m\equiv 3({\rm mod\ 3}) \\
\ 6, & {\rm otherwise}\\
\end{array} \right.
\end{displaymath}
\end{Theor}

\hspace*{-0.53cm}{\bf Proof.} The graph $P_n+C_m$ is a connected
graph with vertex set $V(P_n+C_m)$= $\{x_i; 1 \leq i \leq n\}$
$\cup$ $\{y_j; 1 \leq j \leq m\}$ and  $E(P_n+C_m)$= $\{x_i x_{i+1};
1 \leq i \leq n-1\}$ $\cup \{y_j y_{j+1}, y_m y_1; 1 \leq j \leq
m-1\}$ $\cup \{x_i y_j; 1 \leq i \leq n;\ 1 \leq j \leq m\}$. Thus
$p=|V(P_n + C_m)|= n+m, q=|E(G)|= nm+n+m-1$ and $\Delta(P_n +
C_m)=m+2$. By Observation \ref{aaa}, the lower bound of $r$-dynamic
chromatic number  $\chi_r (P_n + C_m)\ge min\{\Delta(P_n +
C_m),r\}+1=\{m+2,r\}+1$.

For $\chi(P_n+C_m)=\chi_d(P_n+C_m)=\chi_3(P_n+C_m)$, define the
vertex colouring $c: V(P_n+C_m) \to \{1,2, \dots, k\}$ for  $n \geq
2$ and $m \geq 3$ as follows:
\begin{displaymath}
c(x_i) = \left\{ \begin{array}{ll}
\ 1,\ 1 \leq i \leq n,\ i\ {\rm odd}\\
\ 2,\ 1 \leq i \leq n,\ i\ {\rm even}\\
\end{array} \right.
\hspace*{1cm} c(y_j) = \left\{ \begin{array}{ll}
\ 3,\ 1 \leq j \leq m,\ j\ {\rm odd},\ m \ {\rm even} \\
\ 4,\ 1 \leq j \leq m,\ j\ {\rm even},\ m \ {\rm even} \\
\end{array} \right.
\end{displaymath}
\begin{displaymath}
c(y_j) = \left\{ \begin{array}{ll}
\ 3,\ 1 \leq j \leq m-1,\ j\ {\rm odd},\ m \ {\rm odd} \\
\ 4,\ 1 \leq j \leq m-2,\ j\ {\rm even},\ m \ {\rm odd} \\
\ 5,\ j= m,\ m \ {\rm odd} \\
\end{array} \right.
\end{displaymath}

It is easy to see that $c: V(P_n+C_m) \to \{1,2, \dots, 4\}$ and $c:
V(P_n+C_m) \to \{1,2, \dots, 5\}$, for $m$ even and odd
respectively, are proper coloring. Thus, $\chi(P_n+C_m)=4$ and
$\chi(P_n+C_m)=5$, for $m$ even and odd respectively. By definition,
since $min\{|c(N(v))|, \,\,{\rm for\, every}\,\, v\in
V(P_n+C_m)\}=3\le \delta(P_n + C_m)=4$, it implies
$\chi(P_n+C_m)=\chi_d(P_n+C_m)=\chi_3(P_n+C_m)$.

For $\chi_4(P_n+C_m)$, define the vertex colouring $c: V(P_n+C_m)
\to \{1,2, \dots, k\}$ for  $n \geq 2$ and $m \geq 3$ as follows:
\\
For $m\equiv 3\ ({\rm mod\ 3})$
\begin{displaymath}
c(x_i) = \left\{ \begin{array}{ll}
\ 1,\ 1 \leq i \leq n,\ i\ {\rm odd}\\
\ 2,\ 1 \leq i \leq n,\ i\ {\rm even}\\
\end{array} \right.
\end{displaymath}
\begin{displaymath}
c(y_j) = \left\{ \begin{array}{ll}
\ 3,\ 1 \leq j \leq m,\ j\equiv 5\ ({\rm mod\ 3})\\
\ 4,\ 1 \leq j \leq m,\ j\equiv 4\ ({\rm mod\ 3})\\
\ 5,\ 1 \leq j \leq m,\ j\equiv 3\ ({\rm mod\ 3})\\
\end{array} \right.
\end{displaymath}
For $m\equiv 4\ ({\rm mod\ 3})$
\begin{displaymath}
c(x_i) = \left\{ \begin{array}{ll}
\ 1,\ 1 \leq i \leq n,\ i\ {\rm odd}\\
\ 2,\ 1 \leq i \leq n,\ i\ {\rm even}\\
\end{array} \right.
\end{displaymath}
\begin{displaymath}
c(y_j) = \left\{ \begin{array}{ll}
\ 3,\ 1 \leq j \leq m-1,\ j\equiv 5\ ({\rm mod\ 3})\\
\ 4,\ 1 \leq j \leq m-1,\ j\equiv 4\ ({\rm mod\ 3})\\
\ 5,\ 1 \leq j \leq m-1,\ j\equiv 3\ ({\rm mod\ 3})\\
\ 6,\ j=m\\
\end{array} \right.
\end{displaymath}
For $m\equiv 5\ ({\rm mod\ 3})$
\begin{displaymath}
c(x_i) = \left\{ \begin{array}{ll}
\ 1,\ 1 \leq i \leq n,\ i\equiv 5\ ({\rm mod\ 3})\\
\ 2,\ 1 \leq i \leq n,\ i\equiv 4\ ({\rm mod\ 3})\\
\ 3,\ 1 \leq i \leq n,\ i\equiv 3\ ({\rm mod\ 3})\\
\end{array} \right.
\end{displaymath}
\begin{displaymath}
c(y_j) = \left\{ \begin{array}{ll}
\ 4,\ 1 \leq j \leq m,\ j\ {\rm odd},\ m \ {\rm even} \\
\ 5,\ 1 \leq j \leq m,\ j\ {\rm even},\ m \ {\rm even} \\
\end{array} \right.
\end{displaymath}
\begin{displaymath}
c(y_j) = \left\{ \begin{array}{ll}
\ 4,\ 1 \leq j \leq m-1,\ j\ {\rm odd},\ m \ {\rm odd} \\
\ 5,\ 1 \leq j \leq m-2,\ j\ {\rm even},\ m \ {\rm odd} \\
\ 6,\ j= m,\ m \ {\rm odd} \\
\end{array} \right.
\end{displaymath}

It is easy to see, for $m\equiv 3\ ({\rm mod\ 3})$ $c: V(P_n+C_m)
\to \{1,2, \dots, 5\}$, and otherwise $c: V(P_n+C_m) \to \{1,2,
\dots, 6\}$ are proper coloring. Thus, for $m\equiv 3\ ({\rm mod\
3})$, $\chi_4(P_n+C_m)=5$ and $\chi(P_n+C_m)=6$ otherwise. By
definition, since $min\{|c(N(v))|, \,\,{\rm for\, every}\,\, v\in
V(P_n+C_m)\}=4\le \delta(P_n + C_m)=4$, it is proved that
$\chi_4(P_n+C_m)=5$.\ebox

\begin{openproblem}\label{teotribun}
Let $G$ be a joint $P_n$ and $C_m$. For $n \geq 2$ and $m \geq 3$,
determine the $r$-dynamic chromatic number of $G$  when $r\ge 5$.

\begin{Theor}
Let $G$ be a cartesian product of $C_n$ and $S_m$. For $n \geq 3$
dan $m \geq 3$, the $r$-dynamic chromatic number of $G$ is
\begin{displaymath}
\chi(C_n \Box S_m)= \left\{ \begin{array}{ll}
\ 2, & for\,\, $n$\,\, $even$ \\
\ 3, & $for$\,\, $n$\,\, $odd$\\
\end{array} \right.
\end{displaymath}
\end{Theor}

\hspace*{-0.53cm}{\bf Proof.} The graph $C_n \Box S_m$ is a
connected graph with vertex set $V(C_n \Box S_m)$=  $\{A_{i}; 1 \leq
i \leq n\}$ $\cup \{x_{i,j}; 1 \leq i \leq n;\ 1 \leq j \leq m\}$

\{A_{i} x_{i,j}; 1 \leq i \leq n;\ 1 \leq j \leq m\}$. Thus $|V(C_n
\Box S_m)|= nm+n$ and $|E(C_n \Box S_m)|= 2nm+n$ and $\Delta(C_n
\Box S_m)=5$. By Observation \ref{aaa}, the lower bound of
$r$-dynamic chromatic number  $\chi_r (C_n \Box S_m)\ge
min\{\Delta(C_n \Box S_m),r\}+1=\{5,r\}+1$. Define the vertex
colouring $c: V(C_n \Box S_m) \to \{1,2, \dots, k\}$ for $n \geq 3$
and $m \geq 3$ as follows:

\hspace{-0.6cm}For $n$ even
\begin{displaymath}
c(A_{i}) = \left\{ \begin{array}{ll}

\ 2,\ 2 \leq i \leq n,\ i\ {\rm odd}, 1 \leq j \leq m\\
\ 3,\ i= 1\\
\end{array} \right.
\end{displaymath}

It is easy to see that $c: V(C_n \Box S_m) \to \{1,2\}$ and $c:
V(C_n \Box S_m) \to \{1,2,3\}$, for $n$ even and odd respectively,
is proper coloring. By definition, since $min\{|c(N(v))|,\newline
\,\,{\rm for\, every}\,\, v\in V(P_n\Box C_m)\}=1\le \delta(C_n \Box
S_m)=3$,  thus we only have $\chi(C_n \Box S_m)=2$ and $\chi(C_n
\Box S_m)=3$, for $n$ even and odd respectively.\ebox

\end{Theor}

\hspace*{-0.53cm}{\bf Proof.} The graph $C_n \otimes S_m$ is a

$\cup \{x_{i,j}; 1 \leq i \leq n\; 1 \leq j \leq m\}$ dan  $E$=

\section*{Conclusions}
We have studied the $r$-dynamic coloring of some graph operations.
The results show for each graph operation we have not obtained
completely all values of $r$, therefore we left as the above open
problems for the further study.
