We investigate the group irregularity strength ($s_g(G)$) of graphs, i.e. the smallest value of $s$ such that taking any Abelian group $\gr$ of order $s$, there exists a function $f:E(G)\rightarrow \gr$ such that the sums of edge labels at…

It is known that an AG-group is paramedial and a paramedial is a parallelogram space. From which it follows that an AG-group is a parallelogram space. In this paper we give a direct proof of this fact and study it further. Our main result…

A vertex $v$ of a connected graph $G$ is said to be a boundary vertex of $G$ if for some other vertex $u$ of $G$, no neighbor of $v$ is further away from $u$ than $v$. The boundary $\partial(G)$ of $G$ is the set of all of its boundary…

Distance well-defined graphs consist of connected undirected graphs, strongly connected directed graphs and strongly connected mixed graphs. Let $G$ be a distance well-defined graph, and let ${\sf D}(G)$ be the distance matrix of $G$.…

Let $G = (V,E)$ be a finite simple undirected graph without isolated vertices. A bijective map $f: V \cup E \rightarrow \{1,2, \dots, |V|+ |E| \}$ is called total local antimagic labeling if for each edge $uv \in E, w(u) \ne w(v)$, where…

Given a positive-weighted simple connected graph with $m$ vertices, labelled by the numbers $1,\ldots,m$, we can construct an $m \times m$ matrix whose entry $(i,j)$, for any $i,j\in\{1,\dots,m\}$, is the minimal weight of a path between…

Let $G(V,E)$ be a simple graph with $m$ edges. For a given integer $k$, a $k$-shifted antimagic labeling is a bijection $f: E(G) \to \{k+1, k+2, \ldots, k+m\}$ such that all vertices have different vertex-sums, where the vertex-sum of a…

Let $G$ be a graph of order $n$ and $N = \{N(u_{i})\}^k_{i=1}$ be a sequence of neighbourhood(nbh)s in $G$ where $N(u)$ = $\{v\in V(G):$ $uv\in E(G)\}$. \emph{Nbh sequence graph $H$ of} $N$ in $G$ is defined as the union of all induced…

In $1990$, Hartsfield and Ringel introduced antimagic graphs. Hartsfield and Ringel conjectured that every connected graph (and in particular, a tree) except $K_2$ is antimagic. In $2010$, Hefetz et al.\ raised two questions: Is every…

Given a connected graph $G$, the total mutual-visibility number of $G$, denoted $\mu_t(G)$, is the cardinality of a largest set $S\subseteq V(G)$ such that for every pair of vertices $x,y\in V(G)$ there is a shortest $x,y$-path whose…

The non--commuting graph $\Gamma(G)$ of a non--abelian group $G$ is defined as follows. The vertex set $V(\Gamma(G))$ of $\Gamma(G)$ is $G\setminus Z(G)$ where $Z(G)$ denotes the center of $G$ and two vertices $x$ and $y$ are adjacent if…

The commuting graph of a non-abelian group is a simple graph in which the vertices are the non-central elements of the group, and two distinct vertices are adjacent if and only if they commute. In this paper, we classify (up to isomorphism)…

For an Abelian group $G$, any homomorphism $\mu\colon G\otimes G\rightarrow G$ is called a \textsf{multiplication} on $G$. The set $\text{Mult}\,G$ of all multiplications on an Abelian group $G$ is an Abelian group with respect to addition.…
