Abstract :

Let $X$ be a non-empty set and let $S$ be a signed graph, with corresponding underlying graph $G$ and the signature $s$. An injective function $f:V(S) o cP(X)$ is said to be a set-labeling of $S$ if $f$ is a set-labeling of the underlying graph $G$ and the signature of $S$ is defined by $s(uv)=(-1)^{|f(u)oplus f(v)|}$. A signed graph $S$ together with a set-labeling $f$ is known as a set-labeled signed graph and is denoted by $S_f$. In this paper, we discuss the characteristics of certain signed graphs associated with given set-valued signed graphs.
