Abstract

In this paper, we determine the partition dimension of a complete multipartite graph Kn1,n2,... .nr, namely pd(Kn1,n2,... .nr,) isr + n- 1 if ni = n for 1 ≤ i ≤ r and pd(Kn1,n2,... .nr) is r + n - 2 for n = n1 ≥ n2 ≥ ≥ nr. We also show that the partition dimension of caterpillar graph C nm is m for n ≤ m and m + 1 for n > m, and the partition dimension of windmill graph W2m is k, where k is the smallest integer such that (k/2) ≥ m.
