The Petersen graph is the derived graph for a -voltage graph in the shape of a dumbbell with two vertices and three edges: one edge connecting the two vertices, and one self-loop on each vertex. One self-loop is labeled with 1, the other with 2, and the edge connecting the two vertices is labeled 0. More generally, the same construction allows any generalized Petersen graph GP(n,k) to be constructed as a
