Pronic Heron Mean labeling on special cases of generalized Peterson graph P(n,k) and disconnected graphs

S. Akila Devi1*, R. Sophia Porchelvi2 and T. Arjun3

Abstract A graph labeling is an assignment of integers to the vertices or edges or both subject to certain conditions. In this paper for a graph G(V,E) each of the vertices v ∈ V(G) are assigned by pronic numbers. In this paper, we investigate the pronic heron mean labeling on special cases of generalized P(n,k). Also we described an algorithm to label the vertices for the pronic heron mean labeling for certain disconnected graphs.
