Let $G$ be a graph, and let $u$, $v$, and $w$ be vertices of $G$. If the distance between $u$ and $w$ does not equal the distance between $v$ and $w$, then $w$ is said to resolve $u$ and $v$. The metric dimension of $G$, denoted $\beta(G)$,…

Let $X$ denotes a set of non-negative integers and $\mathscr{P}(X)$ be its power set. An integer additive set-labeling (IASL) of a graph $G$ is an injective set-valued function $f:V(G)\to \mathscr{P}(X)-\{\emptyset\}$ such that the induced…

We show that if $G$ is a $d$-regular Vizing-class-1 graph, then the proper additive chromatic index of $G$, denoted $\eta'_p(G)$, is equal to its chromatic index. This verifies that a strengthening of the Additive Coloring Conjecture of…

An edge labeling of a connected graph $G = (V, E)$ is said to be local antimagic if it is a bijection $f:E \to\{1,\ldots ,|E|\}$ such that for any pair of adjacent vertices $x$ and $y$, $f^+(x)\not= f^+(y)$, where the induced vertex label…

Given a graph $G$, a \textit{$k$-total difference labeling} of the graph is a total labeling $f$ from the set of edges and vertices to the set $\{1, 2, \cdots k\}$ satisfying that for any edge $\{u,v\}$, $f(\{u,v\})=|f(u)-f(v)|$. If $G$ is…

An edge-coloured graph $G$ is called $properly$ $connected$ if every two vertices are connected by a proper path. The $proper$ $connection$ $number$ of a connected graph $G$, denoted by $pc(G)$, is the smallest number of colours that are…

Let $B$ and $R$ be two simple graphs with vertex set $V$, and let $G(B,R)$ be the simple graph with vertex set $V$, in which two vertices are adjacent if they are adjacent in at least one of $B$ and $R$. For $X \subseteq V$, we denote by…

An antimagic {labeling} of a graph $G=(V,E)$ is a one-to-one mapping $f: E\rightarrow\{1,2,\ldots,|E|\}$, ensuring that the vertex sums in $V$ are pairwise distinct, where a vertex sum of a vertex $v$ is defined as the sum of the labels of…
