Abstract: Graph theory is a fundamental branch of mathematics that examines networks composed of
nodes (vertices) and connections (edges). This paper explores the concepts of permutation graphs within the
frameworks of fuzzy, intuitionistic fuzzy, neutrosophic, and Turiyam graphs, all of which handle uncertainty in
graph structures. We define permutation and bipartite permutation graphs in each context and investigate their
properties. While permutation graphs have been studied extensively in classical graph theory, there has been
limited exploration in fuzzy and neutrosophic settings.

1. Introduction
1.1 Permutation graphs
Graph theory is a fundamental branch of mathematics that examines networks composed of nodes (ver-
tices) and connections (edges), which are essential for analyzing the structure, paths, and properties of these
networks [58]. One important example in graph theory is the intersection graph, where vertices correspond to
sets, and edges are drawn between vertices if their corresponding sets intersect [89,144,172]. Many related graph
classes have been extensively researched, such as interval graphs [82, 94], proper interval graphs [41, 105, 109],
weighted interval graphs [26, 43, 206], semi-proper interval graphs [168], mixed interval graphs [106–108], unit
disk graphs [23, 42, 44, 129], circular arc graphs [88, 103, 199], and polygon-circle graphs [128].
In this paper, we focus on permutation graphs [24, 32, 68], a specific type of intersection graph that
has garnered significant attention due to its practical applications and importance in the study of various graph
classes. Permutation graphs are defined such that vertices represent elements of a permutation, and edges connect
pairs of vertices if their corresponding elements in the permutation are reversed in order.
The following properties and statements hold.
Theorem 1. The following are known classes of graphs recognized as permutation graphs:
• Comparability graphs[92, 96, 122, 145]: Graphs where the vertices represent elements and edges exist if
they are comparable in a partial order.
• chordal comparability graphs[115, 140]: Chordal graph for comparability graphs.
• Co-comparability graphs[1, 139]: Graphs where the complement is a comparability graph, meaning ver-
tices are non-adjacent if they are comparable.
• Trapezoid graphs[47, 71, 135]: Intersection graphs of trapezoids between two parallel lines, generalizing
interval graphs.
Theorem 2. The following are known as generalized or related graph classes of permutation graphs:
• Circular permutation graphs[114, 164]: Circular permutation graphs are intersection graphs derived
from circular permutation diagrams, where edges represent intersecting chords between two circles.
• Bipartite permutation graphs [191,192]: A bipartite permutation graph is both bipartite and a permutation
graph, offering efficient solutions for certain NP-complete problems.
• Random permutation graphs [29,104]: A random permutation graph is formed by connecting two vertices
if their permutation order and index difference have opposite signs.
• Functi graphs [40,67,70]: Functigraphs generalize permutation graphs by connecting two disjoint copies
of a graph with additional edges defined by a function between their vertices.
• Split permutation graphs [127, 155]: Split permutation graphs are graphs that belong to both split and
permutation graph classes, combining properties of both.
1
• Probe permutation graphs [38]: Probe permutation graphs are permutation graphs where vertices are
partitioned into probes and nonprobes, with additional edges only between certain nonprobes.
• Polar permutation graphs [64, 65]: Polar permutation graphs are permutation graphs where the vertex
set can be partitioned into two: one part forms a complete multipartite graph, the other forms disjoint
complete graphs.
• Connected permutation graphs[126]: Connected graph of permutation graphs.
• Double-threshold permutation graphs[120]: Double-threshold graphs are defined by two thresholds,
where vertex adjacency is based on the sum of their ranks falling in a specific ”YES” region.
• cycle permutation graphs[130,160]: Cycle permutation graphs represent graphs formed by cyclic permu-
tations, where vertices correspond to elements, and edges represent a specific cyclic permutation of these
elements.
• weighted permutation graphs[19, 165]: Weighted version of permutation graphs.
• 𝜋-Permutation Graphs[12]: A 𝜋-permutation graph is formed by connecting two disjoint copies of a graph
via a matching determined by a permutation 𝜋.
• Balanced Permutation Graphs[169]: A balanced permutation graph is a graph where vertices 𝑖 and 𝑗 are
adjacent if and only if 𝑖 + 𝑗 = 𝜋(𝑖) + 𝜋( 𝑗), based on a given permutation 𝜋.
• Permutation hypergraphs[119]: Hypergraph version of Permutation hypergraphs.

In the case of directed graphs, the in-degree deg − (𝑣) is the number of edges directed into 𝑣, and the out-degree
deg+ (𝑣) is the number of edges directed out of 𝑣.
Definition 5 (Subgraph). [58] A subgraph of 𝐺 is a graph formed by selecting a subset of vertices and edges
from 𝐺.
Definition 6 (Induced subgraph). [113, 132] Let 𝐺 = (𝑉, 𝐸) be a graph, where 𝑉 is the set of vertices and 𝐸
is the set of edges. For a subset 𝑉 0 ⊆ 𝑉, the induced subgraph 𝐺 [𝑉 0 ] is the graph whose vertex set is 𝑉 0 and
whose edge set consists of all edges from 𝐸 that have both endpoints in 𝑉 0 . Formally, the induced subgraph
𝐺 [𝑉 0 ] = (𝑉 0 , 𝐸 0 ) is defined as follows:
𝐸 0 = {(𝑢, 𝑣) ∈ 𝐸 | 𝑢 ∈ 𝑉 0 , 𝑣 ∈ 𝑉 0 }.
In other words, 𝐺 [𝑉 0 ] is the subgraph of 𝐺 that contains all vertices in 𝑉 0 and all edges from 𝐺 whose endpoints
are both in 𝑉 0 .
Definition 7 (Complete Graph). (cf.[25, 60]) A complete graph is a graph 𝐺 = (𝑉, 𝐸) in which every pair of
distinct vertices is connected by a unique edge. Formally, a graph 𝐺 = (𝑉, 𝐸) is complete if for every pair of
vertices 𝑢, 𝑣 ∈ 𝑉 with 𝑢 ≠ 𝑣, there exists an edge {𝑢, 𝑣} ∈ 𝐸.
The complete graph on 𝑛 vertices is denoted by 𝐾 𝑛 , and it has the following properties:
• The number of vertices is |𝑉 | = 𝑛.
𝑛(𝑛− 1 )
• The number of edges is |𝐸 | = 𝑛2 = 2 .
• Each vertex has degree deg(𝑣) = 𝑛 − 1 for all 𝑣 ∈ 𝑉.
Definition 8 (Bipartite Graph). (cf.[20, 62]) A bipartite graph is a graph 𝐺 = (𝑉, 𝐸) whose vertex set 𝑉 can be
partitioned into two disjoint subsets 𝑉1 and 𝑉2 such that:
• 𝑉 = 𝑉1 ∪ 𝑉2 and 𝑉1 ∩ 𝑉2 = ∅.
• Every edge in 𝐸 connects a vertex from 𝑉1 to a vertex from 𝑉2 . In other words, there are no edges
connecting two vertices within the same subset 𝑉1 or 𝑉2 .
Formally, 𝐺 = (𝑉, 𝐸) is bipartite if there exists a partition (𝑉1 , 𝑉2 ) such that for every edge 𝑒 = {𝑢, 𝑣} ∈
𝐸, either 𝑢 ∈ 𝑉1 and 𝑣 ∈ 𝑉2 or 𝑢 ∈ 𝑉2 and 𝑣 ∈ 𝑉1 .
A graph 𝐺 is bipartite if and only if it contains no odd-length cycles.
3
Definition 9 (Complete Bipartite Graph). (cf.[66, 111, 134]) A complete bipartite graph is a graph 𝐺 = (𝑉, 𝐸)
whose vertex set 𝑉 can be partitioned into two disjoint subsets 𝑉1 and 𝑉2 such that:
• 𝑉 = 𝑉1 ∪ 𝑉2 and 𝑉1 ∩ 𝑉2 = ∅.
• There is an edge between every vertex in 𝑉1 and every vertex in 𝑉2 .
• There are no edges between vertices within the same subset 𝑉1 or 𝑉2 .
The complete bipartite graph with |𝑉1 | = 𝑚 and |𝑉2 | = 𝑛 is denoted by 𝐾 𝑚,𝑛 . It has the following
properties:
• The number of vertices is |𝑉 | = 𝑚 + 𝑛.
• The number of edges is |𝐸 | = 𝑚 × 𝑛.
• Each vertex in 𝑉1 has degree 𝑛, and each vertex in 𝑉2 has degree 𝑚.
Definition 10 (homomorphic). (cf.[30,59,69,112,204]) Two graphs 𝐺 = (𝑉, 𝐸) and 𝐻 = (𝑉 0 , 𝐸 0 ) are said to be
homomorphic if there exists a mapping 𝜙 : 𝑉 → 𝑉 0 such that for every edge (𝑢, 𝑣) ∈ 𝐸, the image (𝜙(𝑢), 𝜙(𝑣)) is
an edge in 𝐸 0 . In other words, there is a structure-preserving mapping from 𝐺 to 𝐻 that maintains the adjacency
relationships between vertices.

Definition 14. [191, 192] A graph 𝐺 = (𝑉, 𝐸) is called a bipartite permutation graph if 𝐺 is both a bipartite
graph and a permutation graph. Specifically, 𝐺 is bipartite if its vertex set can be partitioned into two independent
sets 𝑉1 and 𝑉2 , where there are no edges between vertices within the same set. The edges of 𝐺 are defined based
on the adjacency condition of a permutation graph.
Formally, 𝐺 = (𝑉1 ∪𝑉2 , 𝐸) is a bipartite permutation graph if there exists a permutation 𝜋 of the vertices
in 𝑉1 ∪ 𝑉2 such that for any two vertices 𝑢 ∈ 𝑉1 and 𝑣 ∈ 𝑉2 , there is an edge (𝑢, 𝑣) ∈ 𝐸 if and only if 𝜋(𝑢)
and 𝜋(𝑣) intersect in the corresponding permutation diagram. Thus, bipartite permutation graphs combine the
structure of bipartite graphs with the properties of permutation graphs.
Example 15. Consider a bipartite graph 𝐺 = (𝑉1 ∪ 𝑉2 , 𝐸), where 𝑉1 = {1, 2} and 𝑉2 = {3, 4}. Let the
permutation 𝜋 = (4, 3, 2, 1) represent the mapping of the vertices 1, 2, 3, 4.
In this graph, edges are formed between the vertices in 𝑉1 and 𝑉2 based on the permutation condition
(𝑖, 𝑗) ∈ 𝐸 if 𝜋(𝑖) and 𝜋( 𝑗) are reversed. For 𝜋 = (4, 3, 2, 1):
(1, 3) because 𝜋(1) = 4 > 𝜋(3) = 2,
(2, 4) because 𝜋(2) = 3 > 𝜋(4) = 1.
Thus, the bipartite permutation graph has the edge set:
𝐸 = {(1, 3), (2, 4)}
This graph satisfies the bipartite and permutation graph conditions.
The underlying crisp graph 𝐺 = (𝑉, 𝐸), where 𝐸 = {(𝑢, 𝑣) | 𝜇(𝑢, 𝑣) > 0}, is a permutation graph
corresponding to the permutation 𝜋.
5
Example 18. Consider 𝑉 = {1, 2, 3, 4}, permutation 𝜋 = (3, 1, 4, 2), and vertex membership degrees:
The underlying crisp graph 𝐺 = (𝑉, 𝐸), where 𝐸 = {(𝑢, 𝑣) | 𝜇(𝑢, 𝑣) > 0}, is a bipartite permutation
graph corresponding to the permutation 𝜋.
Example 20. Let 𝑉1 = {1, 2}, 𝑉2 = {3, 4}, permutation 𝜋 = (4, 3, 2, 1), and vertex membership degrees:
1. (𝜇 𝐴, 𝑣 𝐴) is an Intuitionistic Fuzzy Set (IFS) on the vertex set 𝑉. For each vertex 𝑥 ∈ 𝑉, the degree of
membership 𝜇 𝐴 (𝑥) ∈ [0, 1] and the degree of non-membership 𝑣 𝐴 (𝑥) ∈ [0, 1] satisfy:
𝜇 𝐴 (𝑥) + 𝑣 𝐴 (𝑥) ≤ 1
The value 1 − 𝜇 𝐴 (𝑥) − 𝑣 𝐴 (𝑥) represents the hesitancy or uncertainty regarding the membership of 𝑥 in the
set.
6
2. (𝜇 𝐵 , 𝑣 𝐵 ) is an Intuitionistic Fuzzy Relation (IFR) on the edge set 𝐸. For each edge (𝑥, 𝑦) ∈ 𝐸, the degree
of membership 𝜇 𝐵 (𝑥, 𝑦) ∈ [0, 1] and the degree of non-membership 𝑣 𝐵 (𝑥, 𝑦) ∈ [0, 1] satisfy:
𝜇 𝐵 (𝑥, 𝑦) + 𝑣 𝐵 (𝑥, 𝑦) ≤ 1
In this definition:
• 𝜇 𝐴 (𝑥) and 𝑣 𝐴 (𝑥) represent the degree of membership and non-membership of the vertex 𝑥, respectively.
• 𝜇 𝐵 (𝑥, 𝑦) and 𝑣 𝐵 (𝑥, 𝑦) represent the degree of membership and non-membership of the edge (𝑥, 𝑦), respec-
tively.
• If 𝑣 𝐴 (𝑥) = 0 and 𝑣 𝐵 (𝑥, 𝑦) = 0 for all 𝑥 ∈ 𝑉 and (𝑥, 𝑦) ∈ 𝐸, then the Intuitionistic Fuzzy Graph reduces to
a Fuzzy Graph.
Next, we define the Intuitionistic Fuzzy Permutation Graph and Intuitionistic Fuzzy Bipartite Permutation
Graph.
Definition 22 (Intuitionistic Fuzzy Permutation Graph). An Intuitionistic Fuzzy Permutation Graph is an ex-
tension of the permutation graph into the intuitionistic fuzzy domain, where each vertex and edge is assigned
both a membership degree and a non-membership degree, representing the uncertainty of their presence. Let
𝐺 = (𝑉, 𝐸) be a classical permutation graph and 𝜋 be a permutation of the set {1, 2, . . . , 𝑛}, where 𝑛 = |𝑉 |. The
graph is defined as follows:
𝜇 𝐸 (𝑢, 𝑣) + 𝜈 𝐸 (𝑢, 𝑣) ≤ 1
The underlying crisp graph corresponds to the permutation graph associated with the permutation 𝜋.
Definition 23 (Intuitionistic Fuzzy Bipartite Permutation Graph). An Intuitionistic Fuzzy Bipartite Permutation
Graph extends both the concepts of bipartite graphs and permutation graphs into the intuitionistic fuzzy frame-
work. Let 𝑉 = 𝑉1 ∪ 𝑉2 be a finite set of vertices, partitioned into two independent sets 𝑉1 and 𝑉2 , with 𝜋 as a
permutation on 𝑉1 ∪ 𝑉2 . The graph 𝐺 = (𝑉, 𝐸, 𝜇𝑉 , 𝜈𝑉 , 𝜇 𝐸 , 𝜈 𝐸 ) is defined as follows:
7
• For each vertex 𝑣 ∈ 𝑉, the degree of membership 𝜇𝑉 (𝑣) ∈ [0, 1] and the degree of non-membership
𝜈𝑉 (𝑣) ∈ [0, 1] satisfy:
𝜇𝑉 (𝑣) + 𝜈𝑉 (𝑣) ≤ 1
The value 1 − 𝜇𝑉 (𝑣) − 𝜈𝑉 (𝑣) represents the uncertainty regarding the membership of the vertex 𝑣.
• For each edge (𝑢, 𝑣) ∈ 𝑉1 × 𝑉2 , the degree of membership 𝜇 𝐸 (𝑢, 𝑣) ∈ [0, 1] and the degree of non-
membership 𝜈 𝐸 (𝑢, 𝑣) ∈ [0, 1] satisfy:
𝜇 𝐸 (𝑢, 𝑣) + 𝜈 𝐸 (𝑢, 𝑣) ≤ 1
The membership degree of the edge (𝑢, 𝑣) is:
min(𝜇𝑉 (𝑢), 𝜇𝑉 (𝑣)), if 𝑢 ∈ 𝑉1 , 𝑣 ∈ 𝑉2 and 𝜋(𝑢) > 𝜋(𝑣),
𝜇 𝐸 (𝑢, 𝑣) =
0, otherwise.
This definition ensures that the intuitionistic fuzzy bipartite permutation graph maintains both the bipar-
tite and permutation graph structures while incorporating intuitionistic fuzzy membership and non-membership
degrees.

Definition 25 (Neutrosophic Permutation Graph). A Neutrosophic Permutation Graph is an extension of the
classical permutation graph into the neutrosophic domain, where each vertex and edge is assigned truth, indeter-
minacy, and falsity membership degrees. Let 𝐺 = (𝑉, 𝐸) be a permutation graph with a permutation 𝜋 of the set
{1, 2, . . . , 𝑛}, where 𝑛 = |𝑉 |. The neutrosophic permutation graph 𝐺 𝑁 = (𝑉, 𝐸, 𝜎, 𝜇) is defined as follows:
• 𝜎 : 𝑉 → [0, 1] 3 assigns to each vertex 𝑣 ∈ 𝑉 a triple (𝜎𝑇 (𝑣), 𝜎𝐼 (𝑣), 𝜎𝐹 (𝑣)) representing the truth,
indeterminacy, and falsity membership degrees, respectively.
• 𝜇 : 𝐸 → [0, 1] 3 assigns to each edge 𝑒 ∈ 𝐸 a triple (𝜇𝑇 (𝑒), 𝜇 𝐼 (𝑒), 𝜇 𝐹 (𝑒)), representing the truth,
indeterminacy, and falsity membership degrees, respectively.
• For each edge 𝑒 = (𝑢, 𝑣) ∈ 𝐸, the truth membership degree 𝜇𝑇 (𝑢, 𝑣) is determined as:
min(𝜎𝑇 (𝑢), 𝜎𝑇 (𝑣)), if 𝑢 < 𝑣 and 𝜋(𝑢) > 𝜋(𝑣),
𝜇𝑇 (𝑢, 𝑣) =
0, otherwise.
The indeterminacy 𝜇 𝐼 (𝑢, 𝑣) and falsity 𝜇 𝐹 (𝑢, 𝑣) degrees are defined similarly.
• 𝜎 : 𝑉 → [0, 1] 3 assigns to each vertex 𝑣 ∈ 𝑉1 ∪ 𝑉2 a triple (𝜎𝑇 (𝑣), 𝜎𝐼 (𝑣), 𝜎𝐹 (𝑣)) representing the truth,
indeterminacy, and falsity membership degrees, respectively.
• 𝜇 : 𝐸 → [0, 1] 3 assigns to each edge 𝑒 = (𝑢, 𝑣) ∈ 𝐸 a triple (𝜇𝑇 (𝑢, 𝑣), 𝜇 𝐼 (𝑢, 𝑣), 𝜇 𝐹 (𝑢, 𝑣)), representing
the truth, indeterminacy, and falsity membership degrees, respectively.
• The truth membership degree 𝜇𝑇 (𝑢, 𝑣) for each edge 𝑒 = (𝑢, 𝑣) is defined as:
min(𝜎𝑇 (𝑢), 𝜎𝑇 (𝑣)), if 𝑢 ∈ 𝑉1 , 𝑣 ∈ 𝑉2 and 𝜋(𝑢) > 𝜋(𝑣),
𝜇𝑇 (𝑢, 𝑣) =
0, otherwise.
The indeterminacy 𝜇 𝐼 (𝑢, 𝑣) and falsity 𝜇 𝐹 (𝑢, 𝑣) degrees are defined similarly.
1. Turiyam Vertex Set: For each vertex 𝑣 𝑖 ∈ 𝑉, the Turiyam graph assigns the following mappings:
where:
• 𝑡 (𝑣 𝑖 ) is the truth value (tv) of the vertex 𝑣 𝑖 ,
• 𝑖𝑣(𝑣 𝑖 ) is the indeterminacy value (iv) of 𝑣 𝑖 ,
• 𝑓 𝑣(𝑣 𝑖 ) is the falsity value (fv) of 𝑣 𝑖 ,
• 𝑙𝑣(𝑣 𝑖 ) is the Turiyam state (or liberal value) (lv) of 𝑣 𝑖 ,
for all 𝑣 𝑖 ∈ 𝑉, such that the following condition holds for each vertex:
9
2. Turiyam Edge Set: For each edge (𝑣 𝑖 , 𝑣 𝑗 ) ∈ 𝐸, the Turiyam graph assigns the following mappings:
where:
• 𝑡 (𝑣 𝑖 , 𝑣 𝑗 ) is the truth value of the edge (𝑣 𝑖 , 𝑣 𝑗 ),
• 𝑖𝑣(𝑣 𝑖 , 𝑣 𝑗 ) is the indeterminacy value of (𝑣 𝑖 , 𝑣 𝑗 ),
• 𝑓 𝑣(𝑣 𝑖 , 𝑣 𝑗 ) is the falsity value of (𝑣 𝑖 , 𝑣 𝑗 ),
• 𝑙𝑣(𝑣 𝑖 , 𝑣 𝑗 ) is the Turiyam state (or liberal value) of (𝑣 𝑖 , 𝑣 𝑗 ),
for all (𝑣 𝑖 , 𝑣 𝑗 ) ∈ 𝐸, such that the following condition holds for each edge:
In this case, 𝑉 𝑇 represents the Turiyam vertex set of the graph 𝐺 𝑇 , and 𝐸 𝑇 represents the Turiyam edge
set of 𝐺 𝑇 .
Next, we define the Turiyam Permutation Graph and Turiyam Bipartite Permutation Graph. The resulting
graph combines the structure of the permutation graph with the Turiyam values for truth, indeterminacy, falsity,
and liberal state.
Definition 28 (Turiyam Permutation Graph). A Turiyam Permutation Graph extends the classical permutation
graph into the Turiyam framework, where each vertex and edge is assigned four values: truth, indeterminacy,
falsity, and liberal state. Let 𝐺 = (𝑉, 𝐸) be a classical permutation graph and 𝜋 be a permutation of the set
{1, 2, . . . , 𝑛}, where 𝑛 = |𝑉 |. The Turiyam permutation graph 𝐺 𝑇 = (𝑉 𝑇 , 𝐸 𝑇 , 𝑡, 𝑖𝑣, 𝑓 𝑣, 𝑙𝑣) is defined as follows:
• For each vertex 𝑣 ∈ 𝑉, the Turiyam graph assigns the following values:
where 𝑡 (𝑣), 𝑖𝑣(𝑣), 𝑓 𝑣(𝑣), and 𝑙𝑣(𝑣) represent the truth value, indeterminacy value, falsity value, and liberal
value of the vertex 𝑣, respectively, satisfying:
• For each edge 𝑒 = (𝑢, 𝑣) ∈ 𝐸, the Turiyam graph assigns the following values:
where 𝑡 (𝑢, 𝑣), 𝑖𝑣(𝑢, 𝑣), 𝑓 𝑣(𝑢, 𝑣), and 𝑙𝑣(𝑢, 𝑣) represent the truth value, indeterminacy value, falsity value,
and liberal value of the edge (𝑢, 𝑣), respectively, satisfying:
• The edges in the graph are defined based on the permutation 𝜋. There is an edge between vertices 𝑢 and 𝑣
if 𝑢 < 𝑣 and 𝜋(𝑢) > 𝜋(𝑣).
Definition 29 (Turiyam Bipartite Permutation Graph). A Turiyam Bipartite Permutation Graph extends both
bipartite graphs and permutation graphs into the Turiyam framework, where vertices and edges are assigned
truth, indeterminacy, falsity, and liberal values. Let 𝐺 = (𝑉1 ∪ 𝑉2 , 𝐸) be a bipartite permutation graph, where
𝑉1 and 𝑉2 are independent sets, and 𝜋 is a permutation on 𝑉1 ∪ 𝑉2 . The Turiyam bipartite permutation graph
𝐺 𝑇 = (𝑉 𝑇 , 𝐸 𝑇 , 𝑡, 𝑖𝑣, 𝑓 𝑣, 𝑙𝑣) is defined as follows:
• For each vertex 𝑣 ∈ 𝑉1 ∪ 𝑉2 , the Turiyam graph assigns the following values:
where 𝑡 (𝑣), 𝑖𝑣(𝑣), 𝑓 𝑣(𝑣), and 𝑙𝑣(𝑣) represent the truth value, indeterminacy value, falsity value, and liberal
value of the vertex 𝑣, respectively, satisfying:
10
• For each edge 𝑒 = (𝑢, 𝑣) ∈ 𝐸, where 𝑢 ∈ 𝑉1 and 𝑣 ∈ 𝑉2 , the Turiyam graph assigns the following values:
where 𝑡 (𝑢, 𝑣), 𝑖𝑣(𝑢, 𝑣), 𝑓 𝑣(𝑢, 𝑣), and 𝑙𝑣(𝑢, 𝑣) represent the truth value, indeterminacy value, falsity value,
and liberal value of the edge (𝑢, 𝑣), respectively, satisfying:
• The edges between 𝑉1 and 𝑉2 are defined based on the permutation 𝜋, such that there is an edge between
𝑢 ∈ 𝑉1 and 𝑣 ∈ 𝑉2 if 𝜋(𝑢) > 𝜋(𝑣).
3. Edge Membership Mapping: For each edge 𝑒 = (𝑣 𝑖 , 𝑣 𝑗 ) ∈ 𝐸, assign the same truth, indeterminacy, and
falsity membership degrees:
𝜇(𝑒) = (𝜇𝑇 (𝑒), 𝜇 𝐼 (𝑒), 𝜇 𝐹 (𝑒)).
The edge (𝑣 𝑖 , 𝑣 𝑗 ) exists if and only if 𝑖 < 𝑗 and 𝜋(𝑖) > 𝜋( 𝑗), consistent with the condition in the neutro-
sophic permutation graph.
11
4. Satisfaction of Neutrosophic Graph Condition: In both the neutrosophic graph and neutrosophic per-
mutation graph, the following condition holds for every edge 𝑒 = (𝑣 𝑖 , 𝑣 𝑗 ) ∈ 𝐸:
Theorem 35. The complement of a neutrosophic permutation graph is also a neutrosophic permutation graph.
Proof. Let 𝐺 = (𝑉, 𝐸, 𝜎, 𝜇) be a neutrosophic permutation graph corresponding to the permutation 𝜋 of the
vertex set 𝑉 = {1, 2, . . . , 𝑛}. Each vertex 𝑣 ∈ 𝑉 has a truth, indeterminacy, and falsity membership degree
𝜎(𝑣) = (𝜎𝑇 (𝑣), 𝜎𝐼 (𝑣), 𝜎𝐹 (𝑣)), and each edge 𝑒 ∈ 𝐸 has the degrees 𝜇(𝑒) = (𝜇𝑇 (𝑒), 𝜇 𝐼 (𝑒), 𝜇 𝐹 (𝑒)).
The complement of the graph 𝐺 = (𝑉, 𝐸, 𝜎, 𝜇) has the same vertex set 𝑉, but the edge set 𝐸 consists of
all pairs (𝑢, 𝑣) ∈ 𝑉 × 𝑉 such that (𝑢, 𝑣) ∉ 𝐸. This means:
Thus, (𝑢, 𝑣) ∈ 𝐸 if 𝑢 < 𝑣 and 𝜋(𝑢) < 𝜋(𝑣), i.e., the indices are not reversed in 𝜋.
We consider about verification of Neutrosophic Membership Degrees. To ensure that 𝐺 is a neutrosophic
permutation graph, we must assign neutrosophic membership degrees 𝜎(𝑣) = (𝜎𝑇 (𝑣), 𝜎 𝐼 (𝑣), 𝜎 𝐹 (𝑣)) to each
vertex and 𝜇(𝑒) = (𝜇𝑇 (𝑒), 𝜇 𝐼 (𝑒), 𝜇 𝐹 (𝑒)) to each edge.
For the vertices:
since the complement operation does not change the membership degrees of the vertices.
For the edges:
min(𝜎𝑇 (𝑢), 𝜎𝑇 (𝑣)) if 𝑢 < 𝑣 and 𝜋(𝑢) < 𝜋(𝑣),
𝜇𝑇 (𝑢, 𝑣) =
0 otherwise,
and
min(𝜎 𝐹 (𝑢), 𝜎 𝐹 (𝑣)) if 𝑢 < 𝑣 and 𝜋(𝑢) < 𝜋(𝑣),
𝜇 𝐹 (𝑢, 𝑣) =
0 otherwise.
The complement of a neutrosophic permutation graph satisfies the structural conditions of a neutrosophic
permutation graph, as the edge conditions reflect the complement’s permutation structure, and the truth, indeter-
minacy, and falsity membership degrees are preserved. Therefore, the complement of a neutrosophic permutation
graph is also a neutrosophic permutation graph.
Theorem 36. The disjoint union of two Neutrosophic Permutation Graphs is also a Neutrosophic Permutation
Graph.
12
Proof. Let 𝐺 1 = (𝑉1 , 𝐸 1 , 𝜎1 , 𝜇1 ) and 𝐺 2 = (𝑉2 , 𝐸 2 , 𝜎2 , 𝜇2 ) be two Neutrosophic Permutation Graphs, with
corresponding permutations 𝜋1 and 𝜋2 . Consider the disjoint union 𝐺 = 𝐺 1 t 𝐺 2 , where the vertex set is
𝑉 = 𝑉1 ∪ 𝑉2 and the edge set is 𝐸 = 𝐸 1 ∪ 𝐸 2 .
Define the permutation 𝜋 on 𝑉 as follows:
𝜋1 (𝑣) if 𝑣 ∈ 𝑉1 ,
𝜋(𝑣) =
𝜋2 (𝑣) + |𝑉1 | if 𝑣 ∈ 𝑉2 .
This permutation ensures that the vertices from 𝐺 1 and 𝐺 2 do not interact, preserving the disjoint structure. The
neutrosophic membership functions for vertices and edges remain unchanged in each respective subgraph.
Thus, the disjoint union of two Neutrosophic Permutation Graphs is also a Neutrosophic Permutation
Graph.
Theorem 37. Every subgraph of a Neutrosophic Permutation Graph is also a Neutrosophic Permutation Graph.
Proof. Let 𝐺 = (𝑉, 𝐸, 𝜎, 𝜇) be a Neutrosophic Permutation Graph, and let 𝐺 0 = (𝑉 0 , 𝐸 0 , 𝜎 0 , 𝜇0 ) be a subgraph
of 𝐺, where 𝑉 0 ⊆ 𝑉 and 𝐸 0 ⊆ 𝐸. The vertices in 𝑉 0 inherit the permutation order from 𝐺, and the edges in 𝐸 0
correspond to the pairs (𝑢, 𝑣) where 𝑢 < 𝑣 and 𝜋(𝑢) > 𝜋(𝑣) within the induced permutation on 𝑉 0 .
The neutrosophic membership values for the vertices and edges in 𝐺 0 are simply the restrictions of 𝜎
and 𝜇 to 𝑉 0 and 𝐸 0 . Therefore, 𝐺 0 retains the structure of a Neutrosophic Permutation Graph.
Thus, subgraphs of Neutrosophic Permutation Graphs are also Neutrosophic Permutation Graphs.
𝑉 = 𝑉1 ∪ 𝑉2 and 𝑉1 ∩ 𝑉2 = ∅,
and for each edge 𝑒 = (𝑢, 𝑣) ∈ 𝐸, one vertex 𝑢 ∈ 𝑉1 and the other vertex 𝑣 ∈ 𝑉2 , i.e., every edge connects a
vertex in 𝑉1 to a vertex in 𝑉2 .
Furthermore, the following condition holds for each edge 𝑒 = (𝑢, 𝑣) ∈ 𝐸:
where 𝜎𝑇 (𝑢) and 𝜎𝑇 (𝑣) represent the truth membership degrees of vertices 𝑢 ∈ 𝑉1 and 𝑣 ∈ 𝑉2 , respectively.
Theorem 39. A Neutrosophic Bipartite Graph can be transformed into a Bipartite Graph.
Proof. Obviously holds.
Theorem 42. Neutrosophic Bipartite Graph can be represented as a Neutrosophic Bipartite Permutation Graph.
Proof. To represent a Neutrosophic Bipartite Graph as a Neutrosophic Bipartite Permutation Graph, we perform
the following steps.
First, define a permutation 𝜋 on 𝑉1 ∪ 𝑉2 :
• Let 𝜋 be a permutation on the set 𝑉1 ∪𝑉2 such that for each edge 𝑒 = (𝑢, 𝑣) ∈ 𝐸, where 𝑢 ∈ 𝑉1 and 𝑣 ∈ 𝑉2 ,
the permutation satisfies 𝜋(𝑢) > 𝜋(𝑣).
13
• This ensures that for each edge (𝑢, 𝑣), the permutation condition 𝜋(𝑢) > 𝜋(𝑣) holds, which aligns with the
definition of a Neutrosophic Bipartite Permutation Graph.
Next, assign neutrosophic membership degrees:
• For each vertex 𝑣 ∈ 𝑉1 ∪ 𝑉2 , retain the same truth, indeterminacy, and falsity membership degrees
𝜎𝑇 (𝑣), 𝜎𝐼 (𝑣), 𝜎𝐹 (𝑣) from the Neutrosophic Bipartite Graph.
• For each edge 𝑒 = (𝑢, 𝑣) ∈ 𝐸, where 𝑢 ∈ 𝑉1 and 𝑣 ∈ 𝑉2 , the edge membership degrees 𝜇𝑇 (𝑢, 𝑣), 𝜇 𝐼 (𝑢, 𝑣), 𝜇 𝐹 (𝑢, 𝑣)
are defined in the same way as in the Neutrosophic Bipartite Permutation Graph:
So we conclude that any Neutrosophic Bipartite Graph can be represented as a Neutrosophic Bipartite
