Abstract

 In this paper, we introduce a suitable generalization of Cayley graphs that is defined over polygroups (GCP-graph) and give some examples and properties. Then, we mention a generalization of NEPS that contains some known graph operations and apply to GCP-graphs. Finally, we prove that the product of GCP-graphs is again a GCP-graph.
