An induced matching M in a graph G is a matching such that V(M) induces a 1-regular subgraph of G. The induced matching number of a graph G, denoted by I M(G), is the maximum number r such that G has an induced matching of r edges. Induced matching number of Pm×Pn is investigated in this paper. The main results are as follows:(1) If at least one of m and n is even, then IM(Pm×Pn=[(mn)/4].(2) If m is odd, then
