Abstract

Let G = (V,E) be a connected simple graph. A labeling f: V → Z₂ induces an edge labeling f*: E → Z₂ defined by f*(xy) = f(x)+ f(y) for each xy ∈ E. For i ∈ Z₂, let υ_f(i) = {pipe}f^-1(i){pipe} and e_f(i) = {pipe}f*^-1(i){pipe}. A labeling f is called friendly if {pipe}υ_f(1) - υ_f(0){pipe} ≤ 1. For a friendly labeling f of a graph G, we define the friendly index of G under f by i_f(G) = e_f(1) - e_f(0). The set {i_f(G) {pipe} f is a friendly labeling of G} is called the full friendly index set of G, denoted by FFI(G). In this paper, we will determine the full friendly index set of every Cartesian product of two cycles.
