Some eeral results o sed product cordal label are studed. Keywords: Graph Label Fucto Cordal Label. Itroducto I the vertces o the raph are assed values subject to certa codtos the t s kow as raph label. Most o the raph label problems have the ollow three commo characterstcs: a set o umbers or assmet o vertex labels a rule that asss a label to each ede ad some codto(s) that these labels must satsy. Cordal labels were troduced by Caht [] who called a raph G cordal there s a vertex label : V( G) such that the duced label : E( G) deed by ( xy) ( x) ( y) or all edes xy E( G) ad wth the ollow equaltes hold: v () v () ad e () e () where v () (respectvely e () ) s the umber o vertces (respectvely edes) labeled wth. Sudaram ad Somasudaram [] troduced the oto o product cordal labels. A product cordal label o a raph G wth vertex set V s a ucto rom V to such that each ede uv s assed the label ( u) ( v ) the umber o vertces labeled wth ad the umber o vertces labeled wth der by at most ad the umber o edes labeled wth ad the umber o edes labeled wth der by at most. A raph wth a product cordal label s called a product cordal raph. For detal survey o raph label oe ca reer Galla [3]. Let G ( V E) be a raph. As ve [4] a mapp : V( G) s called bary vertex label o G ad () v s called the label o the vertex v o G uder. For a ede e uv the duced ede label- : E( G) s ve by () e () u (). v Let v () v () be the umber o vertces o G hav labels ad respectvely uder ad let e () e () be the umber o edes hav labels ad respectvely uder. A bary vertex label o a raph G s called a cordal label v () v () ad e () e ( ). I Secto we troduce the deto o sed product cordal label ad work or ew udametal raphs. I Secto 3 we prove that P C ad bstar raph B are sed product cordal. Fally Secto 4 we prove the exstece o sed product cordal label or some eeral raphs.. Sed Product Cordal Label We ow troduce the deto o sed product cordal label. Deto.: A vertex label o raph G : V( G) { } : E( G) { } wth duced ede label deed by ( uv) ( u) ( v) s called a sed product cordal label v ( ) v () ad e ( ) e () where v ( ) s the umber o vertces labeled wth v () s the umber o vertces labeled wth e ( ) s the umber o edes labeled wth ad e () s the umber o edes labeled wth.

Deto 4.: The tree T@mK s obtaed by attach m copes o K to ay oe o the vertces T. Theorem 4.: I a tree T admts sed product cordal label wth vertces the T@mK (m eve) s also a sed product cordal tree. Proo: Let us assume that a tree T admts sed product cordal label. The mapp : V { } satses the codto o sed product cordal label. Let TT@ mk ( V E) where V V u u u ad E E vu vu vu. The vertex label or T : V { } s deed as () v () v vv. Let u u um be the m vertces joed to the vertex v o the tree T. The vertex label o u u um s ve by ( u ) ( ) ; m. I () v the the s o ( vu) ( vu) ( vu m ) wll be the s o ( u) ( u) ( um ) respectvely ad (v) = the the s o ( vu) ( vu) ( vu m ) wll be the s o ( u) ( u) ( um ). I both the cases the ew m edes vu vu vum cotrbutes equal umber o edes labeled wth s ad s. Thereore a tree T@mK the derece betwee the total umber o vertces labeled wth s ad s ad the derece betwee the total umber o edes labeled wth s ad s ders by utmost oe. Example 4.3: Fure llustrates the sed product cordal label or T@4K where T s a arbtrary tree hav sed product cordal label. Corollary 4.4: I a coected raph G has sed product cordal label the the raph G@mK where m s eve admts sed product cordal label. Deto 4.5: The tree Tˆ P s obtaed by supermpos a pedat vertex o P wth ay o the selected vertex T. Theorem 4.6: I a tree T as sed product cordal label the Tˆ P where m s odd admts sed product cordal label. Fure. Sed product cordal label o T@4K. Proo: Let T ( V E) be a coected raph wth vertex set V ad ede set E the the tree Tˆ P ( V E ) where V V u u u ad E Eu u ;. Let v be a vertex T. we supermpose a pedat vertex wth a selected vertex v T oly they preserves the same s. Case : I () v ( u ) the the vertex label or the path raph ollows rom theorem. Case : I () v ( u ) the the vertex label s ve by Sub Case.: whe 3 (mod 4) or Sub Case.: whe or ad ( v ) ; 3mod4 ; mod 4 (mod4) ( v ) ; 3mod4 ; mod 4 ( v ) ( ) v As we supermpose the pedat vertex o P wth ay oe o the vertex T provded they preserve the same s the the path raph cotrbutes equal umber o vertces ad edes labeled wth s ad s. Hece the tree Tˆ P admts sed product cordal label. Corollary 4.7: I a coected raph G has sed product cordal label the the raph Tˆ P where s odd admts sed product cordal label.
