A note on the Brush Numbers of Mycielski Graphs, $μ(G)$

The concept of the brush number $b_r(G)$ was introduced for a simple connected undirected graph $G$. The concept will be applied to the Mycielskian graph $μ(G)$ of a simple connected graph $G$ to find $b_r(μ(G))$ in terms of an \emph{optimal orientation} of $G$. We prove a surprisingly simple general result for simple connected graphs on $n \geq 2$ vertices namely: $b_r(μ(G))= b_r(μ^{\rightarrow}(G)) = 2\sum\limits_{i=1}^{n}d^+_{G^{\rightarrow}_{b_r(G)}}(v_i).$
