Abstract

In this paper, folding automata for paths and cycles are obtained. For given paths (Pn) and cycles (Cn), automata are studied and folding concepts are applied to paths and cycles and also obtained folding automata. Also obtained the result that for Pn, n is odd and n > 2 the vertex folding is possible (vertex symmetry is available), and if n is even, the edge folding is possible since there is an availability of edge symmetry. And for cycle Cn, edge folding is possible only for even number of vertices.
