We consider ordinary graphs, that is, finite, undirected graphs with no loops or multiple lines. The product (also called cartesian product [4]) G1 × G2 of two graphs G1 and G2 with point sets V1 and V2, respectively, has the cartesian product V1 × V2 as its set of points. Two points (u1, u2) and (v1, v2) are adjacent if u1 = v1 and u2 is adjacent with v2 or u2 = v2 and u1 is adjacent with v1.
