1. Introduction
Molodtsov [13] introduced the concept of soft set that can be seen as a new mathematical theory for dealing with uncertainties. Molodtsov applied this theory to several directions [13, 14, 15] and then formulated the notions of Soft number, Soft derivative, Soft integral, etc. in [16]. The soft set theory has been applied to many different fields with greatness. Maji [11] worked on theoretical study of soft sets in detail. The algebraic structure of soft set theory dealing with uncertainties has also been studied in more detail. Aktas and Cagman [2] introduced definition of soft groups, and derived their basic properties. The most appreciate theory to deal with uncertainties is the theory of fuzzy sets, developed by Zadeh [22] in 1965. But it has an inherent difficulty to set the membership function in each particular cases. The generalization of Zadeh’s fuzzy set called intuitionistic fuzzy set was introduced by Atanassov [4] which is characterized by a membership function and a non-membership function. In Zadeh’s fuzzy set, the sum of membership degree and non- membership degree is equal to one. In Atanassov’s intuitionistic fuzzy set the sum of membership degree and non- membership degree does not exeed one.

In 1736, Euler first introduced the concept of graph theory. The theory of graph is extremely useful tool for solving combinatorial problems in different areas such as geometry, algebra, number theory, topology, operation research, optimization and computer science, etc.. The first definition of fuzzy graphs was proposed by Kaffmann [8] in 1973, from Zadeh’s fuzzy relations [22]. But Rosenfeld [19] introduced another elaborated definition including fuzzy vertex and fuzzy edges and several fuzzy analogs of graph theoretic concepts. The first definition of intuitionistic fuzzy graph was introduced by Atanassov [5] in1999. Karunambigai and Parvathy [7] introduced intuitionistic fuzzy graph as a special case of Atanassov’s intuitionistic fuzzy graph. Soft graph was introduced by Thumbakara and George [18]. In 2015, Mohinta and Samanta [20] introduced the concept of fuzzy soft graph.
In this paper, our aim is to introduce the notions of intuitionistic fuzzy soft graph, strong intuitionistic fuzzy soft graph, complete intutionistic fuzzy soft graph. Also studied about union of two intuitionistic fuzzy soft graph and proved that the collection of intuitionistic fuzzy soft graph is closed under finite union.
2. Preliminaries
Definition 2.1. A fuzzy set of a base set V ={v1,v2,…,vn} (non-empty set) is specified by
its membership function σ ; where
σ
:V →[0,1] assigning to each vi∈V , the degreeor grade to which V∈
σ
.Definition 2.2. A fuzzy graph G=(
σ

:V →[0,1] and [0,1]:V×V →
µ
, where for all vi,vj∈V we haveµ
(vi,vj)≤σ
(vi)∧σ
(vj) foreach (vi,vj)∈V×V. Here
σ

are respectively called fuzzy vertex and fuzzy edge of the fuzzy graph G=(σ
