Abstract

A sum divisor cordial labeling of a graph G with vertex set V(G) is a bijection f from V(G) to {1,2,,|V(G)|} such that an edge uv is assigned the label 1 if 2 divides f(u)+f(v) and 0 otherwise; and the number of edges labeled with 1 and the number of edges labeled with 0 differ by at most 1. A graph with a sum divisor cordial labeling is called a sum divisor cordial graph. In this paper, we discuss the sum divisor cordial labeling of transformed tree related graphs.

1. Introduction

All graphs considered here are simple, finite, connected and undirected. The vertex set and the edge set of a graph are denoted by V(G) and E(G) respectively. We follow the basic notations and terminology of graph theory as in [1]. A labeling of a graph is a map that carries the graph elements to the set of numbers, usually to the set of non-negative or positive integers. If the domain is the set of vertices then the labeling is called vertex labeling. If the domain is the set of edges then the labeling is called edge labeling. If the labels are assigned to both vertices and edges then the labeling is called total labeling. A detailed survey of graph labeling is available in [2]. The concept of cordial labeling was introduced by Cahit in [3].
Lourdusamy et al. introduced the concept of sum divisor cordial labeling in [4]. They prove that paths, combs, stars, complete bipartite, K2+mK1, bistars, jewels, crowns, flowers, gears, subdivisions of stars, the graph obtained from K1,3 by attaching the root of K1,n at each pendent vertex of K1,3, and the square Bn,n are sum divisor cordial graphs. Also they discussed the sum divisor labeling of star related graphs, path related graphs and cycle related graphs in [5,6, 7].
In [8, 9, 10, 11], Sugumaran et al. investigated the behaviour of sum divisor cordial labeling of swastiks, path unions of finite number of copies of swastiks, cycles of k copies of swastiks, when k is odd, jelly fish, Petersen graphs, theta graphs, the fusion of any two vertices in the cycle of swastiks, duplication of any vertex in the cycle of swastiks, the switchings of a central vertex in swastiks, the path unions of two copies of a swastik, the star graph of the theta graphs, the Herschel graph, the fusion of any two adjacent vertices of degree 3 in Herschel graphs, the duplication of any vertex of degree 3 in the Herschel graph, the switching of central vertex in Herschel graph, the path union of two copies of the Herschel graph, H-graph Hn, when n is odd, C3@K1,n, <Fn1ΔFn2> and open star of swastik graphs S(t.Swn), when t is odd.
In [12, 13, 14, 15] Sugumaran et al. proved that the following graphs are sum divisor cordial graphs: H-graph Hn, when n is even, duplication of all edges of the H-graph Hn, when n is even, HnK1, P(r.Hn), C(r.Hn), plus graphs, umbrella graphs, path unions of odd cycles, kites, complete binary trees, drums graph, twigs, fire crackers of the form PnSn, where n is even, and the double arrow graph DAmn, where |mn|1 and n is even. Further results on sum divisor cordial labeling are given in [16, 17].
In this paper, we discuss the sum divisor cordial labeling of transformed tree related graphs like TO^Pn, TO^Cn (n1,3,0 (mod 4)), TO^K1,n, TO^Kn¯, TO^Qn, TO~Cn (n1,3,0 (mod 4)) and TO~Qn. We use the following definitions in the subsequent sections.

Definition 1. Let G=(V(G),E(G)) be a simple graph and f:V(G){1,2,,|V(G)|} be a bijection. For each edge uv, assign the label 1 if 2|(f(u)+f(v)) and the label 0 otherwise. The function f is called a sum divisor cordial labeling if |ef(1)ef(0)|1. A graph which admits a sum divisor cordial labeling is called a sum divisor cordial graph.

Definition 2. [18] Let T be a tree and u0 and v0 be two adjacent vertices in T. Let there be two pendant vertices u and v in T such that the length of u0u path is equal to the length of v0v path. If the edge u0v0 is deleted from T and u,v are joined by an edge uv, then such a transformation of T is called an elementary parallel transformation (or an ept) and the edge u0v0 is called transformable edge.

If by the sequence of ept’s, T can be reduced to a path, then T is called a Tp-tree (transformed tree) and such a sequence regarded as a composition of mappings (ept’s) denoted by P, is called a parallel transformation of T. The path, the image of T under P is denoted as P(T).

Definition 3. The corona G1G2 of two graphs G1(p1,q1) and G2(p2,q2) is defined as the graph obtained by taking one copy of G1 and p1 copies of G2 and joining the ith vertex of G1 with an edge to every vertex in the ith copy of G2.

Definition 4. [19] Let G1 be a graph with p vertices and G2 be any graph. A graph G1O^G2 is obtained from G1 and p copies of G2 by identifying one vertex of ith copy of G2 with ith vertex of G1.

Definition 5. [19] Let G1 be a graph with p vertices and G2 be any graph. A graph G1O~G2 is obtained from G1 and p copies of G2 by joining one vertex of ith copy of G2 with ith vertex of G1 by an edge.

Theorem 1. [7] Every Tp-tree is sum divisor cordial graph.

2. Tp-Tree related graphs

Theorem 2. If T be a Tp-tree on m vertices, then the graph TO^Pn is sum divisor cordial graph.

Proof. Let T be a Tp-tree with m vertices. By the definition of a transformed tree there exists a parallel transformation P of T such that for the path P(T), we have (i) V(P(T))=V(T) and (ii) E(P(T))=(E(T)Ed)Ep, where Ed is the set of edges deleted from T and Ep is the set of edges newly added through the sequence P=(P1,P2,,Pk) of the epts P used to arrive at the path P(T). Clearly, Ed and Ep have the same number of edges. Denote the vertices of P(T) successively as v1,v2,,vm starting from one pendant vertex of P(T) right up to the other. Let u1j,u2j,,unj(1jm) be the vertices of jth copy of Pn with u1j=vj. Then V(TO^Pn)={vj,uij:1in,1jm with u1j=vj} and E(TO^Pn)=E(T){uijui+1j:1in1,1jm}.
Define f:V(TO^Pn){1,2,,mn} as follows:
Case 1.1] n is even.
For 1jm and 1in,
f(uij)={n(j1)+i+1 if  i1 (mod 4)n(j1)+i1 if  i2 (mod 4)n(j1)+i if  i3,0 (mod 4) .

Let vivj be a transformed edge in T, 1i<jm and let P1 be the ept obtained by deleting the edge vivj and adding the edge vi+tvjt where t is the distance of vi from vi+t and the distance of vj from vjt. Let P be a parallel transformation of T that contains P1 as one of the constituent epts.

Since vi+tvjt is an edge in the path P(T), it follows that i+t+1=jt which implies j=i+2t+1. Therefore, i and j are of opposite parity.
The induced edge label of vivj is given by f(vivj)=f(vivi+2t+1)=2|(f(vi)+f(vi+2t+1))=1. The induced edge label of vi+tvjt is given by f(vi+tvjt)=f(vi+tvi+t+1)=2|(f(vi+t)+f(vi+t+1))=1. Therefore, f(vivj)=f(vi+tvjt).
The induced edge labels are as follows:
f(vjvj+1)=1, 1jm1;
for 1in1 and 1jm,
f(uijui+1j)={0 if  i is odd1 if  i is even .
Case 2.1] n is odd.
For 1jm,
choose ‘if j1,2 (mod 4)’,
f(uij)={n(j1)+i if  i1,0 (mod 4) and 1inn(j1)+i+1 if  i2 (mod 4) and 1inn(j1)+i1 if  i3 (mod 4) and 1in ;
choose ‘if j3,0 (mod 4)’ and n3 (mod 4),
f(uij)={n(j1)+i+1 if  i1 (mod 4) and 1inn(j1)+i1 if  i2 (mod 4) and 1inn(j1)+i if  i3,0 (mod 4) and 1in ;
choose ‘if j3,0 (mod 4)’ and n1 (mod 4),
f(uij)={n(j1)+i+1 if  i1 (mod 4) and 1in2n(j1)+i1 if  i2 (mod 4) and 1in2n(j1)+i if  i3,0 (mod 4) and 1in2n(j1)+i+1 if  i=n1n(j1)+i1 if  i=n .

Let vivj be a transformed edge in T, 1i<jm and let P1 be the ept obtained by deleting the edge vivj and adding the edge vi+tvjt where t is the distance of vi from vi+t and the distance of vj from vjt. Let P be a parallel transformation of T that contains P1 as one of the constituent epts.

Since vi+tvjt is an edge in the path P(T), it follows that i+t+1=jt which implies j=i+2t+1. Therefore, i and j are of opposite parity.
The induced edge label of vivj is given by f(vivj)=f(vivi+2t+1)={0 if  i is odd1 if  i is even. The induced edge label of vi+tvjt is given by f(vi+tvjt)=f(vi+tvi+t+1)={0 if  i is odd1 if  i is even. Therefore, f(vivj)=f(vi+tvjt).
The induced edge labels are as follows:
f(vjvj+1)={0 if  i is odd and 1jm11 if  i is even and 1jm1 ;
for 1jm,
choose ‘if j1,2 (mod 4)’,
f(uijui+1j)={1 if  i is odd and 1in10 if  i is even and 1in1 ;
choose ‘if j3,0 (mod 4)’ and n3 (mod 4),
f(uijui+1j)={0 if  i is odd and 1in11 if  i is even and 1in1 ;
choose ‘if j3,0 (mod 4)’ and n1 (mod 4),
f(uijui+1j)={0 if  i is odd and 1in31 if  i is even and 1in31 if  i=n21 if  i=n1 .
In the above two cases,
when m is odd and n is odd,
ef(0)=ef(1)=mn12;
when m is odd and n is even,
ef(0)=mn12 and ef(1)=mn12;
when m is even and n is odd or even,
ef(0)=mn12 and ef(1)=mn12.
Clearly |ef(0)ef(1)|1. Hence TO^Pn is sum divisor cordial graph. ◻

Example 1. Sum divisor cordial labeling of TO^P5 where T is a Tp-tree with 11 vertices is shown in Figure 2.

Theorem 3. If T be a Tp-tree on m vertices, then the graph TO^Cn is sum divisor cordial graph if n0,3,1 (mod 4).

Proof. Let T be a Tp-tree with m vertices. By the definition of a transformed tree there exists a parallel transformation P of T such that for the path P(T), we have (i) V(P(T))=V(T) and (ii) E(P(T))=(E(T)Ed)Ep, where Ed is the set of edges deleted from T and Ep is the set of edges newly added through the sequence P=(P1,P2,,Pk) of the epts P used to arrive at the path P(T). Clearly, Ed and Ep have the same number of edges. Denote the vertices of P(T) successively as v1,v2,,vm starting from one pendant vertex of P(T) right up to the other. Let u1j,u2j,,unj (1jm) be the vertices of jth copy of Cn with u1j=vj. Then V(TO^Cn)={uij:1in,1jm} and E(TO^Cn)=E(T)E(Cn). Define
f:V(TO^Cn){1,2,3,,mn} as follows:
Case 1. n0 (mod 4).
Choose ‘if j1,2 (mod 4)’ and 1jm,
f(uij)={n(j1)+i if  i1,0 (mod 4) and 1inn(j1)+i+1 if  i2 (mod 4) and 1inn(j1)+i1 if  i3 (mod 4) and 1in;
choose ‘if j3,0 (mod 4)’ and 1jm,
f(uij)={n(j1)+i+1 if  i1 (mod 4) and 1inn(j1)+i1 if  i2 (mod 4) and 1inn(j1)+i if  i3,0 (mod 4) and 1in.

Let vivj be a transformed edge in T, 1i<jm and let P1 be the ept obtained by deleting the edge vivj and adding the edge vi+tvjt where t is the distance of vi from vi+t and the distance of vj from vjt. Let P be a parallel transformation of T that contains P1 as one of the constituent epts.

Since vi+tvjt is an edge in the path P(T), it follows that i+t+1=jt which implies j=i+2t+1. Therefore, i and j are of opposite parity.
The induced edge label of vivj is given by f(vivj)=f(vivi+2t+1)={1 if  i is odd0 if  i is even. The induced edge label of vi+tvjt is given by f(vi+tvjt)=f(vi+tvi+t+1)={1 if  i is odd0 if  i is even. Therefore, f(vivj)=f(vi+tvjt).
The induced edge labels are as follows:
f(vjvj+1)={1 if  j is odd and 1jm10 if  j is even and 1jm1;
for 1jm and 1in1,
f(unju1j)={0 if  j1,2 (mod 4)1 if  j3,0 (mod 4);
f(uijui+1j)={1 if  i is odd and j1,2 (mod 4)0 if  i is even and j1,2 (mod 4)0 if  i is odd and j3,0 (mod 4)1 if  i is even and j3,0 (mod 4).
Case 2. n3 (mod 4).
Choose ‘if j1,3 (mod 4)’ and 1jm,
f(uij)={n(j1)+i if  i1,0 (mod 4) and 1inn(j1)+i+1 if  i2 (mod 4) and 1inn(j1)+i1 if  i3 (mod 4) and 1in;
choose ‘if j2,0 (mod 4)’ and 1jm,
f(uij)={n(j1)+i+1 if  i1 (mod 4) and 1inn(j1)+i1 if  i2 (mod 4) and 1inn(j1)+i if  i3,0 (mod 4) and 1in.

Let vivj be a transformed edge in T, 1i<jm and let P1 be the ept obtained by deleting the edge vivj and adding the edge vi+tvjt where t is the distance of vi from vi+t and the distance of vj from vjt. Let P be a parallel transformation of T that contains P1 as one of the constituent epts.

Since vi+tvjt is an edge in the path P(T), it follows that i+t+1=jt which implies j=i+2t+1. Therefore, i and j are of opposite parity.
The induced edge label of vivj is given by f(vivj)=f(vivi+2t+1)=2|(f(vi)+f(vi+2t+1))=1. The induced edge label of vi+tvjt is given by f(vi+tvjt)=f(vi+tvi+t+1)=2|(f(vi+t)+f(vi+t+1))=1. Therefore, f(vivj)=f(vi+tvjt).
The induced edge labels are as follows:
f(vjvj+1)=1, 1jm1;
for 1jm and 1in1,
f(unju1j)=0;
f(uijui+1j)={1 if  i is odd and j1,3 (mod 4)0 if  i is even and j1,3 (mod 4)0 if  i is odd and j2,0 (mod 4)1 if  i is even and j2,0 (mod 4).
Case 3. n1 (mod 4).
For 1jm,

Let vivj be a transformed edge in T, 1i<jm and let P1 be the ept obtained by deleting the edge vivj and adding the edge vi+tvjt where t is the distance of vi from vi+t and the distance of vj from vjt. Let P be a parallel transformation of T that contains P1 as one of the constituent epts.

Since vi+tvjt is an edge in the path P(T), it follows that i+t+1=jt which implies j=i+2t+1. Therefore, i and j are of opposite parity.
The induced edge label of vivj is given by f(vivj)=f(vivi+2t+1)=0. The induced edge label of vi+tvjt is given by f(vi+tvjt)=f(vi+tvi+t+1)=0. Therefore, f(vivj)=f(vi+tvjt).
The induced edge labels are as follows:
f(vjvj+1)=0, 1jm1;
for 1jm and 1in1,
f(unju1j)=1;
f(uijui+1j)={1 if  i is odd and j1,3 (mod 4)0 if  i is even and j1,3 (mod 4)1 if  i is odd and j2,0 (mod 4)0 if  i is even and j2,0 (mod 4).
In the above three cases, it can be verified that |ef(0)ef(1)|1. Hence TO^Cn is sum divisor cordial graph. ◻

Example 2. Sum divisor cordial labeling of TO^C7 where T is a Tp-tree with 8 vertices is shown in Figure 3.

Theorem 4. If T be a Tp-tree on m vertices, then the graph TO^K1,n is sum divisor cordial graph.

Proof. Let T be a Tp-tree with m vertices. By the definition of a transformed tree there exists a parallel transformation P of T such that for the path P(T), we have (i) V(P(T))=V(T) and (ii) E(P(T))=(E(T)Ed)Ep, where Ed is the set of edges deleted from T and Ep is the set of edges newly added through the sequence P=(P1,P2,,Pk) of the epts P used to arrive at the path P(T). Clearly, Ed and Ep have the same number of edges. Denote the vertices of P(T) successively as v1,v2,,vm starting from one pendant vertex of P(T) right up to the other. Let u0j,u1j,,unj(1jm) be the vertices of jth copy of K1,n with unj=vj. Then V(TO^K1,n)={vj,u0j,uij:1in,1jm with vj=unj} and E(TO^K1,n)=E(T){u0juij: 1jm, 1in}.
Define f:V(TO^K1,n){1,2,,mn+m} as follows:
For 1jm,
f(vj)=2j;
f(u0j)=2j1;
f(uij)=2m+(n1)(j1)+i, 1in1.

Let vivj be a transformed edge in T, 1i<jm and let P1 be the ept obtained by deleting the edge vivj and adding the edge vi+tvjt where t is the distance of vi from vi+t and the distance of vj from vjt. Let P be a parallel transformation of T that contains P1 as one of the constituent epts. Since vi+tvjt is an edge in the path P(T), it follows that i+t+1=jt which implies j=i+2t+1. Therefore, i and j are of opposite parity.
The induced edge label of vivj is given by f(vivj)=f(vivi+2t+1)=2|(f(vi)+f(vi+2t+1))=1. The induced edge label of vi+tvjt is given by f(vi+tvjt)=f(vi+tvi+t+1)=2|(f(vi+t)+f(vi+t+1))=1. Therefore, f(vivj)=f(vi+tvjt).
The induced edge labels are as follows:
f(vjvj+1)=1, 1jm1;
for 1jm,
f(u0junj)=0;
when n is odd and 1in1,
f(u0juij)={1 if  i is odd0 if  i is even;
when n is even and 1in1,
f(u0juij)={1 if  i is odd and j is odd0 if  i is even and j is odd0 if  i is odd and j is even1 if  i is even and j is even.
In view of above labeling we get,
when m is odd and n is even,
ef(0)=ef(1)=mn+m12;
when m is odd and n is odd,
ef(0)=mn+m12 and ef(1)=mn+m12;
when m is even and n is odd or even,
ef(0)=mn+m12 and ef(1)=mn+m12.
Clearly |ef(0)ef(1)|1. Hence TO^K1,n is sum divisor cordial graph. ◻

Theorem 5. If T be a Tp-tree on m vertices, then the graph TKn¯ is sum divisor cordial graph.

By the definition of Tp-tree there exists a parallel transformation P of T such that for the path P(T), we have (i) V(P(T))=V(T) and (ii) E(P(T))=(E(T)Ed)Ep, where Ed is the set of edges deleted from T and Ep is the set of edges newly added through the sequence P=(P1,P2,,Pk) of the epts P used to arrive at the path P(T). Clearly, Ed and Ep have the same number of edges. Denote the vertices of P(T) successively as v1,v2,,vm starting from one pendant vertex of P(T) right up to the other. Let u1j,u2j,,unj(1jm) be the pendant vertices joined with vj(1jm) by an edge. Then V(TKn¯)={vj,uij:1in,1jm} and E(TKn¯)=E(T){vjuij: 1jm, 1in}.
Define f:V(TKn¯){1,2,,mn+m} as follows:

Let P be a parallel transformation of T that contains P1 as one of the constituent epts. Since vi+tvjt is an edge in the path P(T), it follows that i+t+1=jt which implies j=i+2t+1. Therefore, i and j are of opposite parity.
The induced edge label of vivj is given by f(vivj)=f(vivi+2t+1)=2|(f(vi)+f(vi+2t+1))=1. The induced edge label of vi+tvjt is given by f(vi+tvjt)=f(vi+tvi+t+1)=2|(f(vi+t)+f(vi+t+1))=1. Therefore, f(vivj)=f(vi+tvjt).
The induced edge labels are as follows:

It can be verified that |ef(0)ef(1)|1. Hence TKn¯ is sum divisor cordial graph. ◻

By the definition of a transformed tree there exists a parallel transformation P of T such that for the path P(T), we have (i) V(P(T))=V(T) and (ii) E(P(T))=(E(T)Ed)Ep, where Ed is the set of edges deleted from T and Ep is the set of edges newly added through the sequence P=(P1,P2,,Pk) of the epts P used to arrive at the path P(T). Clearly, Ed and Ep have the same number of edges. Denote the vertices of P(T) successively as v1,v2,,vm starting from one pendant vertex of P(T) right up to the other. Let u1j,u2j,,unj,un+1j(1jm) be the vertices of jth copy of Qn with un+1j=vj. Then V(TO^Qn)={uij:1in+1,1jm}{xij,yij:1in,1jm} and E(TO^Qn)=E(T)E(Qn). We note that |V(TO^Qn)|=3nm+m and |E(TO^Qn)|=4mn+m1. Define f:V(TO^Qn){1,2,,3mn+m} as follows:

Let vivj be a transformed edge in T, 1i<jm and let P1 be the ept obtained by deleting the edge vivj and adding the edge vi+tvjt where t is the distance of vi from vi+t and the distance of vj from vjt. Let P be a parallel transformation of T that contains P1 as one of the constituent epts.

Since vi+tvjt is an edge in the path P(T), it follows that i+t+1=jt which implies j=i+2t+1. Therefore, i and j are of opposite parity.
The induced edge label of vivj is given by f(vivj)=f(vivi+2t+1)={1 if  i is odd0 if  i is even. The induced edge label of vi+tvjt is given by f(vi+tvjt)=f(vi+tvi+t+1)={1 if  i is odd0 if  i is even. Therefore, f(vivj)=f(vi+tvjt).

f(vj)=f(un+1j)={j if  j1,2 (mod 4)j+1 if  j3 (mod 4)j1 if  j0 (mod 4) .

Let vivj be a transformed edge in T, 1i<jm and let P1 be the ept obtained by deleting the edge vivj and adding the edge vi+tvjt where t is the distance of vi from vi+t and the distance of vj from vjt. Let P be a parallel transformation of T that contains P1 as one of the constituent epts.

Since vi+tvjt is an edge in the path P(T), it follows that i+t+1=jt which implies j=i+2t+1. Therefore, i and j are of opposite parity.
The induced edge label of vivj is given by f(vivj)=f(vivi+2t+1)={0 if  i is odd1 if  i is even. The induced edge label of vi+tvjt is given by f(vi+tvjt)=f(vi+tvi+t+1)={0 if  i is odd1 if  i is even. Therefore, f(vivj)=f(vi+tvjt).
The induced edge labels are as follows:
f(vjvj+1)={0 if  i is odd and 1jm11 if  i is even and 1jm1;
for 1jm,
f(uijxij)=0, 1in;
f(uijyij)=1, 1in;
f(xijui+1j)=1, 1in1;
f(yijui+1j)=0, 1in1;
f(xnjvj)={0 if  n is odd and j1,2 (mod 4)1 if  n is odd and j3,0 (mod 4)1 if  n is even and j1,0 (mod 4)0 if  n is even and j2,3 (mod 4);
f(ynjvj)={1 if  n is odd and j1,2 (mod 4)0 if  n is odd and j3,0 (mod 4)1 if  n is even and j2,3 (mod 4)0 if  n is even and j1,0 (mod 4).
In the above two cases,
when m is odd,
ef(1)=ef(0)=4mn+m12;
when m is even,
ef(1)=4mn+m12 and ef(0)=4mn+m12.
It can be verified that |ef(0)ef(1)|1. Hence TO^Qn is sum divisor cordial graph. ◻

Theorem 7. If T be a Tp-tree on m vertices, then the graph TO~Cn is sum divisor cordial graph if n0,3,1 (mod 4).

Proof. Let T be a Tp-tree with m vertices. By the definition of a transformed tree there exists a parallel transformation P of T such that for the path P(T), we have (i) V(P(T))=V(T) and (ii) E(P(T))=(E(T)Ed)Ep, where Ed is the set of edges deleted from T and Ep is the set of edges newly added through the sequence P=(P1,P2,,Pk) of the epts P used to arrive at the path P(T). Clearly, Ed and Ep have the same number of edges. Denote the vertices of P(T) successively as v1,v2,,vm starting from one pendant vertex of P(T) right up to the other. Let u1j,u2j,,unj(1jm) be the vertices of jth copy of Cn. Then V(TO~Cn)={vj,uij:1in, 1jm} and E(TO~Cn)=E(T)E(Cn){vju1j:1jm}. Define f:V(TO~Cn){1,2,,mn+m} as follows:
Case 1. n0 (mod 4).
f(vj)=(n+1)j,1jm;
for 1jm and 1in,

Let vivj be a transformed edge in T, 1i<jm and let P1 be the ept obtained by deleting the edge vivj and adding the edge vi+tvjt where t is the distance of vi from vi+t and also the distance of vj from vjt. Let P be a parallel transformation of T that contains P1 as one of the constituent epts. Since vi+tvjt is an edge in the path P(T), it follows that i+t+1=jt which implies j=i+2t+1. Therefore, i and j are of opposite parity.
The induced edge label of vivj is given by f(vivj)=f(vivi+2t+1)=0. The induced edge label of vi+tvjt is given by f(vi+tvjt)=f(vi+tvi+t+1)=0. Therefore, f(vivj)=f(vi+tvjt).
The induced edge labels are as follows:
f(vjvj+1)=0, 1jm1;
f(u1jvj)=1, 1jm;
f(unju1j)=0, 1jm;
for 1jm,
f(uijui+1j)={1 if  i is odd and 1in10 if  j is even and 1in1.
Case 2. n3 (mod 4).

choose ‘if j1,2 (mod 4)’ and 1jm,
f(uij)={(n+1)(j1)+i+1 if  i1 (mod 4) and 1in(n+1)(j1)+i1 if  i2 (mod 4) and 1in(n+1)(j1)+i if  i3,0 (mod 4) and 1in ;
choose ‘if j3,0 (mod 4)’ and 1jm,
f(uij)={(n+1)(j1)+i+2 if  i1 (mod 4) and 1in(n+1)(j1)+i if  i2 (mod 4) and 1in(n+1)(j1)+i+1 if  i3,0 (mod 4) and 1in .

Therefore, i and j are of opposite parity.
The induced edge label of vivj is given by f(vivj)=f(vivi+2t+1)={1if i is odd0if i is even. The induced edge label of vi+tvjt is given by f(vi+tvjt)=f(vi+tvi+t+1)={1if i is odd0if i is even. Therefore, f(vivj)=f(vi+tvjt).
The induced edge labels are as follows:

f(u1jvj)=1;
f(unju1j)=0;
f(uijui+1j)={0if i is odd and 1in11if i is even and 1in1 .
Case 3. n1 (mod 4).

choose ‘if j1,2 (mod 4)’ and 1jm,
f(uij)={(n+1)(j1)+i if  i1,0 (mod 4) and 1in(n+1)(j1)+i+1 if  i2 (mod 4) and 1in(n+1)(j1)+i1 if  i3 (mod 4) and 1in ;

f(uij)={(n+1)(j1)+i+1 if  i1,0 (mod 4) and 1in(n+1)(j1)+i+2 if  i2 (mod 4) and 1in(n+1)(j1)+i if  i3 (mod 4) and 1in ;

Let vivj be a transformed edge in T, 1i<jm and let P1 be the ept obtained by deleting the edge vivj and adding the edge vi+tvjt where t is the distance of vi from vi+t and the distance of vj from vjt. Let P be a parallel transformation of T that contains P1 as one of the constituent epts. Since vi+tvjt is an edge in the path P(T), it follows that i+t+1=jt which implies j=i+2t+1. Therefore, i and j are of opposite parity.
The induced edge label of vivj is given by f(vivj)=f(vivi+2t+1)={1if i is odd0if i is even. The induced edge label of vi+tvjt is given by f(vi+tvjt)=f(vi+tvi+t+1)={1if i is odd0if i is even. Therefore, f(vivj)=f(vi+tvjt).
The induced edge labels are as follows:
f(vjvj+1)={1if i is odd and 1jm10if i is even and 1jm1 ;
for 1jm,
f(u1jvj)=0;
f(unju1j)=1;
f(uijui+1j)={1if i is odd and 1in10if i is even and 1in1 .
In the above three cases,
when m is odd,
ef(1)={mn+2m12if n1,3 (mod 4)mn+2m12if n0 (mod 4),
ef(0)={mn+2m12if n1,3 (mod 4)mn+2m12if n0 (mod 4);
when m is even and n1,3,0 (mod 4),
ef(1)=mn+2m12 and ef(0)=mn+2m12.
It can be verified that |ef(0)ef(1)|1. Hence TO~Cn is sum divisor cordial graph. ◻

Theorem 8. If T be a Tp-tree on m vertices, then the graph TO~Qn is sum divisor cordial graph.

Proof. Let T be a Tp-tree with m vertices. By the definition of a transformed tree there exists a parallel transformation P of T such that for the path P(T), we have (i) V(P(T))=V(T) and (ii) E(P(T))=(E(T)Ed)Ep, where Ed is the set of edges deleted from T and Ep is the set of edges newly added through the sequence P=(P1,P2,,Pk) of the epts P used to arrive at the path P(T). Clearly, Ed and Ep have the same number of edges. Denote the vertices of P(T) successively as v1,v2,,vm starting from one pendant vertex of P(T) right up to the other. Let u1j,u2j,,unj,un+1j(1jm) be the vertices of jth copy of Qn. Then V(TO~Qn)={vj,uij:1in+1,1jm}{xij,yij:1in,1jm} and E(TO~Qn)=E(T)E(Qn){vjun+1j:1jm}. We note that |V(TO~Qn)|=m(3n+2) and |E(TO~Qn)|=4mn+2m1. Define f:V(TO~Qn){1,2,,m(3n+2)} as follows:
Case 1.1] n is odd.
f(vj)=(3n+2)j, 1jm;
for 1jm and 1in+1,

f(yij)={(3n+2)(j1)+3i+1 if  i is odd(3n+2)(j1)+3i if  i is even .

Let vivj be a transformed edge in T, 1i<jm and let P1 be the ept obtained by deleting the edge vivj and adding the edge vi+tvjt where t is the distance of vi from vi+t and also the distance of vj from vjt. Let P be a parallel transformation of T that contains P1 as one of the constituent epts. Since vi+tvjt is an edge in the path P(T), it follows that i+t+1=jt which implies j=i+2t+1. Therefore, i and j are of opposite parity.
The induced edge label of vivj is given by f(vivj)=f(vivi+2t+1)=0. The induced edge label of vi+tvjt is given by f(vi+tvjt)=f(vi+tvi+t+1)=0. Therefore, f(vivj)=f(vi+tvjt).

Therefore, i and j are of opposite parity.
The induced edge label of vivj is given by f(vivj)=f(vivi+2t+1)=2|(f(vi)+f(vi+2t+1))=1. The induced edge label of vi+tvjt is given by f(vi+tvjt)=f(vi+tvi+t+1)=2|(f(vi+t)+f(vi+t+1))=1. Therefore, f(vivj)=f(vi+tvjt).
The induced edge labels are as follows:
