Vertex-magic labeling of regular graphs: Disjoint unions and assemblages
نویسندگان
چکیده
We establish the existence of vertex-magic total labelings (VMTLs) for several infinite classes of regular graphs. The main method of construction is to assemble a number of appropriately labeled copies of one graph into a single graph with a VMTL. This method enables us for example to begin with any even-regular graph and from it construct a cubic graph possessing a VMTL. An important feature of the construction is that it produces strong VMTLs for many even order regular graphs. In addition the method provides another proof that for any odd-regular graph G possessing a VMTL, the disconnected graph tG has a VMTL for all t ≥ 1. The construction also extends to certain families of non-regular graphs.

A graph is called supermagic if there is a labeling of edges where the edges are labeled with consecutive distinct positive integers such that the sum of the labels of all edges incident with any vertex is constant. A graph G is called degree-magic if there is a labeling of the edges by integers 1, 2, ..., |E(G)| such that the sum of the labels of the edges incident with any vertex v is equal t...

For any non-trivial abelian group A under addition a graph $G$ is said to be $A$-textit{magic} if there exists a labeling $f:E(G) rightarrow A-{0}$ such that, the vertex labeling $f^+$ defined as $f^+(v) = sum f(uv)$ taken over all edges $uv$ incident at $v$ is a constant. An $A$-textit{magic} graph $G$ is said to be $Z_k$-magic graph if the group $A$ is $Z_k$ the group of integers modulo $k...

Let $A$ be an abelian group. A graph $G=(V,E)$ is said to be $A$-barycentric-magic if there exists a labeling $l:E(G)longrightarrow Asetminuslbrace{0}rbrace$ such that the induced vertex set labeling $l^{+}:V(G)longrightarrow A$ defined by $l^{+}(v)=sum_{uvin E(G)}l(uv)$ is a constant map and also satisfies that $l^{+}(v)=deg(v)l(u_{v}v)$ for all $v in V$, and for some vertex $u_{v}$ adjacent t...
متن کاملDistance magic labelings of a union of graphs
A 1-vertex-magic vertex labeling of a graph G(V,E) with p vertices is a bijection f from the vertex set V (G) to the integers 1, 2, . . . , p with the property that there is a constant k such that at any vertex x the sum ∑ f(x) taken over all neighbors of x is k. In this paper, we study the 1-vertex-magic vertex labelings of two families of disconnected graphs, namely a disjoint union of m copi...
متن کاملVertex-magic labeling of non-regular graphs
In this paper, we are studying vertex-magic total labelings (VMTLs) of simple graphs. By now much is known about methods for constructing VMTLs for regular graphs. Here we are studying non-regular graphs. We show how to construct labelings for several families of non-regular graphs, including graphs formed as the disjoint union of two other graphs already possessing VMTLs. We focus on condition...
