Abstract

In the paper we present results, which allow us to compute the independence numbers of P 2-path graphs and P 3-path graphs of special graphs. As P 2(G) and P 3(G) are subgraphs of iterated line graphs L2(G) and L3(G), respectively, we compare our results with the independence numbers of corresponding iterated line graphs.
