A graph $G$ is said to be distance-balanced if for any edge $uv$ of $G$, the number of vertices closer to $u$ than to $v$ is equal to the number of vertices closer to $v$ than to $u$. Let $GP(n,k)$ be a generalized Petersen graph. Jerebic, Klavžar, and Rall [Distance-balanced graphs, Ann. Comb. 12 (2008) 71–79] conjectured that: For any integer $k\geq 2$, there exists a positive integer $n_0$ such that the $GP(n,k)$ is not distance-balanced for every integer $n\geq n_0$. In this note, we give a proof of this conjecture.

A strong edge coloring of a graph G is a proper edge coloring such that every color class is an induced matching. In 2018, Yang and Wu proposed a conjecture that every generalized Petersen graph P(n,k) with k≥4 and n>2k can be strong edge colored with (at most) seven colors. Although the generalized Petersen graph P(n,k) is a kind of special graph, the strong chromatic index of P(n,k) is still unknown. In this paper, we support the conjecture by showing that the strong chromatic index of every generalized Petersen graph P(n,k) with k≥4 and n>2k is at most 9.

The distance  defined by 0 if , 1 if  adjacent with , and 2 if  does not adjacent with . The set  is a local adjacency resolving set of  if for every two distinct vertices ,  and  adjacent with y then . A minimum local adjacency resolving set in  is called local adjacency metric basis. The cardinality of vertices in the basis is a local adjacency metric dimension of , denoted by . Next, we investigate the local adjacency metric dimension of generalized petersen graph.</p>

1.Introduction. For integersnandkwith 2 ≤ 2k <n, thegeneralized Petersen graph G(n, k)has been defined in (8) to have vertex-setand edge-setE(G(n, k))to consist of all edges of the formwhereiis an integer.All subscripts in this paper are to be read modulo n, where the particular value ofnwill be clear from the context. ThusG(n, k)is always a trivalent graph of order 2n, andG(5, 2) is the well known Petersen graph. (The subclass of these graphs withnandkrelatively prime was first considered by Coxeter ((2), p. 417ff.).)

A double Roman dominating function on a graph G=(V,E) is a function f:V→{0,1,2,3} with the properties that if f(u)=0, then vertex u is adjacent to at least one vertex assigned 3 or at least two vertices assigned 2, and if f(u)=1, then vertex u is adjacent to at least one vertex assigned 2 or 3. The weight of f equals w(f)=∑v∈Vf(v). The double Roman domination number γdR(G) of a graph G is the minimum weight of a double Roman dominating function of G. A graph is said to be double Roman if γdR(G)=3γ(G), where γ(G) is the domination number of G. We obtain the sharp lower bound of the double Roman domination number of generalized Petersen graphs P(3k,k), and we construct solutions providing the upper bounds, which gives exact values of the double Roman domination number for all generalized Petersen graphs P(3k,k). This implies that P(3k,k) is a double Roman graph if and only if either k≡0 (mod 3) or k∈{1,4}.

For a vertex set [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text], we use [Formula: see text] to denote the maximum number of edge-disjoint Steiner trees of [Formula: see text] such that any two of such trees intersect in [Formula: see text]. The generalized [Formula: see text]-connectivity of [Formula: see text] is defined as [Formula: see text]. We get that for any generalized Petersen graph [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] when [Formula: see text]. We give the values of [Formula: see text] for Petersen graph [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text], and the values of [Formula: see text] for generalized Petersen graph [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text].
