The edge C₄ graph of a graph G, E₄(G) is a graph whose vertices are the edges of G and two vertices in E₄(G) are adjacent if the corresponding edges in G are either incident or are opposite edges of some C₄. In this paper, we show that there exist infinitely many pairs of non isomorphic graphs whose edge C₄ graphs are isomorphic. We study the relationship between the diameter, radius and domination number of G and those of E₄(G). It is shown that for any graph G without isolated vertices, there exists a super graph H such that C(H) = G and C(E₄(H)) = E₄(G). Also we give forbidden subgraph characterizations for E₄(G) being a threshold graph, block graph, geodetic graph and weakly geodetic graph.
Keywords: edge C₄ graph, threshold graph, block graph, geodetic graph, weakly geodetic graph
