Abstract

In this paper the vertices of caterpillar tree T are viewed with different approach and categorized into the sets D, R and X, based on the distance parameters i. e. , diameter and radius. The distance parameters have been presented with some set theory views. Here D is the set of diametral vertices, R is the set of central vertices and X is the set of vertices which are neither central nor peripheral. Then, |D|+|R|+|X|=n. The cardinality of these sets has some property and helps to specify the basic characters of caterpillar tree. A linear complexity algorithm is also designed to generate these sets.
