Abstract

The vertex cover Polynomial of a graph G of order n has been already introduced in [3]. It is defined as the polynomial, C (G, x) = |v (G)| i = β(G)  c (G, i)xi , where c (G , i) is the number of vertex covering sets of G of size i and (G) is the vertex covering number of G. In this paper, we derived a formula for finding the vertex cover polynomial of the KnK2.
