A graceful labelling of a graph G is an injective function f from the set of vertices of G into the set {0,1,...,|EG|} such that if edge uv is assigned the label |f(u)-f(v)| then all edge labels have distinct values. A strong graceful…

A \emph{graceful labeling} of a graph $G$ is an injective function $f : V(G) \to \{0, \ldots, |E(G)|\}$ such that $\{\,|f(u)-f(v)| : uv \in E(G)\,\} = \{1, \ldots, |E(G)|\}$. If such a labeling exists, then we call $G$ \emph{graceful}.…

A graph $G$ on $m$ edges is graceful if there is an injection $f : V(G) \to \{0, 1, \ldots, m\}$ whose induced edge labels $\{|f(u) - f(v)| : uv \in E(G)\}$ are exactly $\{1, 2, \ldots, m\}$. Ringel and Kotzig conjectured in 1964 that every…

In graph theory, a graceful labeling of a graph with m edges is a labeling of its vertices with a subset of the integers ranging from 0 to m inclusive, such that no two vertices share a label, and each edge is uniquely identified by the…

Given a graph $G$, a labeling of $G$ is an injective function $f:V(G)\rightarrow\mathbb{Z}_{\ge 0}$. Under the labeling $f$, the label of a vertex $v$ is $f(v)$, and the induced label of an edge $uv$ is $|f(u) - f(v)|$. The labeling $f$ is…

Four algorithms giving rise to graceful graphs from a known (non)graceful graph are described. Some necessary conditions for a graph to be highly graceful and critical are given. Finally some conjectures are made on graceful, critical and…

Let T=(V,E) be a tree with vertex set V and edge set E. A graceful labelling f of T is an injective function f from V into {0, 1, ..., |E|} such that if edge uv is assigned the label g(uv)=|f(u)-f(v)| then the function g from E into {1,…

Graceful tree conjecture is a well-known open problem in graph theory. Here we present a computational approach to this conjecture. An algorithm for finding graceful labelling for trees is proposed. With this algorithm, we show that every…

A graceful labeling of a graph $G$ with $m$ edges consists of labeling the vertices of $G$ with distinct integers from $0$ to $m$ such that, when each edge is assigned as induced label the absolute difference of the labels of its endpoints,…

The Graceful Tree Conjecture of Rosa from 1967 asserts that the vertices of each tree T of order n can be injectively labelled by using the numbers {1,2,...,n} in such a way that the absolute differences induced on the edges are pairwise…

An $n$-vertex tree $T$ is said to be $\textit{graceful}$ if there exists a bijective labelling $\phi:V(T)\to \{1,\ldots,n\}$ such that the edge-differences $\{|\phi(x)-\phi(y)| : xy\in E(T)\}$ are pairwise distinct. The longstanding…

We introduce left and right-layered trees as trees with a specific representation and define the excess of a tree. Applying these ideas, we show a range-relaxed graceful labeling which improves on the upper bound for maximum vertex label…

A function $f$ is a \textit{graceful labelling} of a graph $G=(V,E)$ with $m$ edges if $f$ is an injection $f:V\mapsto \{0,1,2,\dots,m\}$ such that each edge $uv \in E$ is assigned the label $|f(u)-f(v)|$, and no two edge labels are the…

A $(0,1)$-labeling of a set is said to be friendly if the number of elements of the set labeled 0 and the number labeled 1 differ by at most 1. Let $g$ be a labeling of the edge set of a graph that is induced by a labeling $f$ of the vertex…

Let $m\ge 1$ be an integer and $G$ be a graph with $m$ edges. We say that $G$ has an antimagic orientation if $G$ has an orientation $D$ and a bijection $\tau:A(D)\rightarrow \{1,2,\cdots,m\}$ such that no two vertices in $D$ have the same…

An odd graceful labeling of a graph G=(V,E) is a function f:V(G)->[0,1,2,...,2|E(G)|-1} such that |f(u)-f(v)| is odd value less than or equal to 2|E(G)-1| for any u, v in V(G). In spite of the large number of papers published on the subject…
