Abstract

Let G(V, E) be a graph. A vertex vV(G) is said to be a self vertex switching of G, if G is isomorphic to Gv, where Gv is the graph obtained from G, by deleting all edges of G incident to v and adding edges between v and the vertices which are not adjacent to v in G. In this paper, we discuss some applications of self vertex switching and list out all trees and unicyclic graphs with unique self vertex switching. We also obtain some more results on self vertex switching.
