Abstract
In this paper we generalize the construction - introduced by Gagliardi and Grasselli in the closed case - of a coloured-graph representing the product of two manifolds, starting by two coloured graphs representing the manifol ds themselves, to the boundary case. In particular we study the genus of th e graph product of low dimensional manifold ( resp. n-spheres) with m-disks .
