Abstract

Because it helps solve numerous issues and offers insights into the graph's structure, studying the diametral path is crucial for network research and design. Graph decomposition, which splits complex graphs into smaller components, is a crucial area of research in graph theory. It helps facilitate the study and understanding of the graph's features.  A set of discrete subgraphs covering the set of edges in a graph G is called a partition. Decomposition using trees to link every vertex or diametral paths that can exist between any two vertices in a graph is still widely studied. As a result, many computationally challenging graph problems become straightforward if the graph is a tree. In this paper, we introduce novel concepts in graph decomposition like diametral tree decomposition , diametral tree decomposition number  and diametral tree decomposition index  of the helm graph
