Calculation of shortest path on Fermatean Neutrosophic Networks

The shortest path (SP) problem (SPP) has several applications in graph theory. It can be used to calculate the distance between the provided initial and final vertex in a network. In this paper, we employed the Fermatean neutrosophic number as the appropriate edge weight of the network to estimate the SP connecting the start and end vertex. This technique is highly useful in establishing the shortest path for the decision-maker under uncertainty. We also investigated its effectiveness in comparison to several existing methods. Finally, a few numerical tests were performed to demonstrate the validity and stability of this new technique, as well as to compare different types of shortest paths with different networks.
