1. Introduction
“Graph labelling” is the process of assigning values to a graph’s vertices under specific restrictions. The majority of graph labelling issues share the following three components: a collection of integers for assigning vertex labels, a rule that provides an edge label, and some requirement(s) that these labels must meet.
Cahit [
1] developed cordial labelling, defining it as the presence of a vertex labelling
such that the induced labelling
, holds for all edges
and with the following inequalities holding:
and
, where
(respectively
) is the number of vertices (respectively, edges) labeled with

A mapping
is known as 3-Equitable labelling of

is known as the label of the vertex
of

for an edge

In [
3] ELrokh, Al-Shamiri and Abd El-hay proved that
is Logically if and only if
. In [
4] Badr and et.al, investigated the radio mean square numbers for paths and cycles. Nada, Elrokh and El-hay [
5] provided necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of total cordial labeling for the corona between paths and second power of fan graph. In the study [
6], they examine whether certain types of graphs, such as trees, paths, and cycles, have a local super ant magic total chromatic number. They described the chromatic number of powers of paths in the paper [
7]. They also discover specific upper and lower bounds for the chromatic number of powers of cycles. Finding the spanning numbers of the join products of six symmetric graphs on six vertices with paths and cycles on
vertices was the major goal of the research [
8]. The exact value of the signed, according to the study [
9], is the Cartesian product of the directed path
and the directed cycle
for any positive integers
and
.
The strong products of two paths, the strong product of a path and a cycle, and the strong product of two cycles are all shown to have g-extra connectivity in article [
10]. In [
11], they obtained an
and
labeling of symmetric classes of networks termed as hexagonal lattice
and prismatic lattice
. For more details about the cordial labeling, the reader can refer to [

16].
