R. China Abstract A graph G with vertex set V is said to have a prime labeling if its vertices can be labeled with distinct integers,,..., V such that for every edge xy in E, the labels assigned to x and y are relatively prime or coprime. A graph is called prime if it has a prime labeling. In this paper, we show that generalized Petersen graphs P (n, ) are not prime for odd n, prime for even n 00 and conjectured that P (n, ) are prime for all even n. Mathematics Subject Classification: Primary 0C; Secondary C0 Keywords: Prime labeling, Prime graph, generalized Petersen graph Introduction We consider only finite undirected graphs without loops or multiple edges. G =(V,E) be a graph with vertex set V and edge set E. A graph G is said to have a prime labeling if its vertices can be labeled with distinct integers,,..., V such that for every edge xy in E, the labels assigned to x and y are relatively prime or coprime. A graph is called prime The research is supported by Chinese Natural Science Foundations (00).

2 Kh. Md. Mominul Haque et al if it has a prime labeling. This concept was originated with Entringer and introduced by Tout, Dabboucy, and Howalla[0]. Roger Entringer conjectured that all trees are prime. Fu and Huang [] proved that every tree with n vertices is prime. O Pikhurko [, ] extended this result to all n 0. Other prime graphs include all cycles and the disjoint union of C k and C n. Seoud, Diab, and Elsakhawi [] showed that following graphs are prime: Fans, Helms, Flowers, Stars, K,n and K,n unless n = or. They also showed that P n + K m (m ) is not prime. Kelli Carlson [] proved that generalized Books and C m -Snakes are prime graphs. Vilfred, Somasundaram, and Nicholas [] have conjectured that the grid P m P n is prime when n is prime and n>m. This conjecture was proved by Sundaram, Ponraj, and Somasundaram []. In the same article they also showed that P n P n is prime when n is prime. The authors [, ] proved that the following graphs are prime: generalized Petersen graph P (n, ) for even n 00 and not prime for odd n and Knödel graphs W,n for n 0. We refer the readers to the dynamic survey by Gallian []. T he generalized P etersen graphs P (n, k) are defined to be a graph on n(n ) vertices with V (P (n, k)) = {v i,u i :0 i n } and E(P (n, k)) = {v i v i+,v i u i,u i u i+k :0 i n, subscripts modulo n}. In this paper, we show that generalized Petersen graphs P (n, ) are not prime for odd n, prime for even n 00, and conjecture that P (n, ) are prime for all even n. Main Results Theorem.. P (n, ) is not prime for odd n. By contradiction. Suppose that P (n, ) is prime for some odd n, sayn. f be a prime labeling of P (n, ). Then one of {f(v 0 ),f(v ),...,f(v n )} and {f(u 0 ),f(u ),...,f(u n )} must contains at least n + evens, i.e. there are at least two evens adjacent, a contradiction. For even n, let N i = {n : n + i is prime}, Ni = {n :n + i is prime}, N = i (N i+ Ni+ Ni+ ), N = i (N i+ N i+ N i+ ). We will prove the following Theorem by Lemmas. -.. Theorem.. P (n, ) is prime for even n N N. Observation.. f(u) and f(v) are coprime if they satisfy any one of the following conditions:

Lemma..

In Figure., we show the prime labeling of P (n, ), where n = N. For 0 i n, by Observation.(), f(v i ) and f(v i+ ) are coprime. For n i n, f(v i+ ) f(v i ) =, by Observation.(), f(v i ) and f(v i+ ) are coprime. For i = n, f(v 0 ) = and f(v n )=n + is odd, by Observation.(), f(v n ) and f(v 0 ) are coprime. For 0 i n, by Observation.(), f(u i ) and f(u i+ ) are coprime. For i = n, f(u n ) f(u n ) = n (n +) =, by Observation.(), f(u n ) and f(u n ) are coprime. For i = n, f(u n ) f(u n ) = n + (n +) =, by Observation.(), f(u n ) and f(u n ) are coprime. For i = n, f(u n ) f(u n ) = n (n ) =. Since n N, n mod 0. Since n is odd, we have f(u n ) and f(u n ) are coprime. For i = n, by Observation.(), f(u n )=n+ and

4 Kh. Md. Mominul Haque et al f(u 0 ) = are coprime. For i = n, f(u n ) f(u n ) = n+ (n+) =, by Observation.(), f(u n ) and f(u n ) are coprime. For i = n, f(u n )=,f(u n )=n. Since n N N N,nmod 0, hence f(u n ) and f(u n ) are coprime. For 0 i n, { i + (i +) =, i mod = 0, f(u i ) f(v i ) = n i (n i) =, i mod =, by Observation.(), f(v i ) and f(u i ) are coprime. For i = n, f(u n ) f(v n ) = n+ (n ) =, by Observation.(), f(v n ) and f(u n ) are coprime. For i = n, f(u n ) f(v n ) = n + n =, by Observation.(), f(v n ) and f(u n ) are coprime. For i = n, f(u n ) f(v n ) = n (n +) = and f(v n ) is odd, by Observation.() f(v n ), f(u n ) are comprime. Hence f is a prime labeling of P (n, ) for even n N. For the Lemmas. -., we only define f, and leave for the readers to verify that the f is a prime labeling of P (n, ). Lemma..
