摘要

For a given graph G, a subset X of E(G) is an edge general position set of G if each three edges of X does not contain a common shortest path. The cardinality of a largest edge general position set of G is called the edge general position number of G, denoted by \(\text {gp}_e(G)\) gp e ( G ) . In this paper, we show a class of graphs with diameter 3 such that their edge general position numbers equal to their size minus 2. In addition, all graphs whose edge general position numbers equal to 4 are characterized.
