Bipartite Double Graph

 

The bipartite double graph, also called the Kronecker cover, Kronecker double cover, bipartite double cover, canonical double cover, or bipartite double, of a given graph  is constructed by making two copies of the vertex set of  (omitting the initial edge set entirely) and constructing edges  and  for every edge  of . The bipartite double graph is equivalent to the graph categorical product .

In a non-bipartite connected graph, exactly one double cover is bipartite. However, a bipartite or disconnected graph may have more than one bipartite double graph, leading Pisanski (2018) to suggest than one of the alternate names should be used for this concept.

Note that the bipartite double differs from the plain double graph in that the initial edge set is discarded in the bipartite double graph, while it is retained in the double graph.

The following table summarizes bipartite double graphs for some named graphs and classes of graphs.
