Optimizing Regular Edge Labelings

چکیده
A regular edge labeling (REL) of an irreducible triangulation G uniquely defines a rectangular dual of G. Rectangular duals find applications in various areas: as floor plans of electronic chips, in architectural designs, as rectangular cartograms, or as treemaps. An irreducible triangulation can have many RELs and hence many rectangular duals. Depending on the specific application different duals might be desirable. In this paper we consider optimization problems on RELs and show how to find optimal or near-optimal RELs for various quality criteria. Along the way we give upper and lower bounds on the number of RELs.

On the Number of Regular Edge Labelings
We prove that any irreducible triangulation on n vertices has O(4.6807) regular edge labelings and that there are irreducible triangulations on n vertices with Ω(3.0426) regular edge labelings. Our upper bound relies on a novel application of Shearer’s entropy lemma. As an example of the wider applicability of this technique, we also improve the upper bound on the number of 2-orientations of a ...
متن کاملA magical approach to some labeling conjectures
In this paper, a complete characterization of the (super) edge-magic linear forests with two components is provided. In the process of establishing this characterization, the super edge-magic, harmonious, sequential and felicitous properties of certain 2-regular graphs are investigated , and several results on super edge-magic and felicitous labelings of unions of cycles and paths are presented...
متن کاملOn edge graceful labelings of disjoint unions of 2r-regular edge graceful graphs
We prove that if G is a 2r-regular edge graceful (p, q) graph with (r, kp) = 1 then kG is edge graceful for odd k. We also prove that for certain specific classes of 2r-regular edge graceful graphs it is possible to drop the requirement that (r, kp) = 1

In this paper we construct antimagic labelings of the regular complete multipartite graphs and we also extend the construction to some families of regular graphs.
متن کاملGraceful labelings of the generalized Petersen graphs
A graceful labeling of a graph $G=(V,E)$ with $m$ edges is aninjection $f: V(G) rightarrow {0,1,ldots,m}$ such that the resulting edge labelsobtained by $|f(u)-f(v)|$ on every edge $uv$ are pairwise distinct. For natural numbers $n$ and $k$, where $n > 2k$, a generalized Petersengraph $P(n, k)$ is the graph whose vertex set is ${u_1, u_2, cdots, u_n} cup {v_1, v_2, cdots, v_n}$ and its edge set...
