Abstract: Yang et al. (2013) introduced the concept of generalised bipolar fuzzy graphs in 2013. In this paper, we have introduced certain concepts of covering, matching and paired domination using strong arcs in bipolar fuzzy graphs with suitable examples. We investigated some properties of them. Also, we have calculated strong node covering number, strong independent number and other parameters of complete and complete bipartite bipolar fuzzy graphs.

Keywords: bipolar fuzzy graphs; strong arcs; covering; matching; paired domination.
