Abstract

In this paper, a new kind of graph on a finite group , namely the result involution graph is defined and studied. We use to denote this graph, is a simple undirected graph with vertex set.  Two distinct vertices are adjacent if and only if their product is nontrivial involution element in . The result involution graph for several finite groups are obtained. We study some properties of the result involution graph by resizing graph by using the conjugacy classes of . Finally, we show that the result involution graphs for the symmetric groups and the alternating groups are connected with diameter at most 3 and radius at most 2 for. Furthermore, they have girth 3.

.Keywords: Involution Element, Complete  Bipartite Graph, Girth and Diameter.
