Abstract:
For a graph $G$, let $P(G, \lambda)$ denote the chromatic polynomial of $G$. Two graphs $G$ and $H$ are chromatically equivalent (or simply $\chi$-equivalent), denoted by $G\sim H$, if $P(G, \lambda) = P(H, \lambda)$. A graph $G$ is chromatically unique (or simply $\chi$-unique) if for any graph $H$ such that $H \sim G$, we have $H\cong G$, that is, $H$ is isomorphic to $G$. In this paper, the chromatic uniqueness of a family of 6-bridge graph is determined.

Keywords: Chromatic polynomial, chromatically unique, 6-bridge graph
