## The chromatic numbers of graph bundles over cycles.(English)Zbl 0818.05035

Authors’ abstract: Graph bundles generalize the notions of covering graphs and products of graphs. The chromatic numbers of product bundles with respect to the Cartesian, the strong and the tensor product whose base and fiber are cycles are determined.
