Abstract

In this note we give an upper bound for λ(n), the maximum number of edges in a strongly multiplicative graph of order n, which is sharper than the upper bounds given by Beineke and Hegde [3] and Adiga, Ramaswamy and Somashekara [2], for n ≥ 28.

Keywords: graph labelling, strongly multiplicative graphs.

2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: 05C78.
