Abstract

A graph GG is called \textit{super edge-magic} if there exists a bijective function ff from V(G)E(G)V(G) \cup E(G) to {1,2,,V(G)E(G)}\{1, 2, \ldots, |V(G) \cup E(G)|\} such that f(V(G))={1,2,,V(G)}f(V(G)) = \{1, 2, \ldots, |V(G)|\} and f(x)+f(xy)+f(y)f(x) + f(xy) + f(y) is a constant kk for every edge xyxy of GG. Furthermore, the \textit{super edge-magic deficiency} of a graph GG is either the minimum nonnegative integer nn such that GnK1G \cup nK_1 is super edge-magic or ++\infty if there exists no such integer. \emph{Join product} of two graphs is their graph union with additional edges that connect all vertices of the first graph to each vertex of the second graph. In this paper, we study the super edge-magic deficiencies of a wheel minus an edge and join products of a path, a star, and a cycle, respectively, with isolated vertices.
