We describe a way of assigning labels to the vertices of any undirected graph on up to $n$ vertices, each composed of $n/2+O(1)$ bits, such that given the labels of two vertices, and no other information regarding the graph, it is possible…

An undirected graph is said to be cordial if there is a friendly (0,1)-labeling of the vertices that induces a friendly (0,1)-labeling of the edges. An undirected graph $G$ is said to be $(2,3)$-orientable if there exists a friendly…

Let $G = (V,E)$ be a connected simple graph of order $p$ and size $q$. A bijection $f:V(G)\cup E(G)\to \{1,2,\ldots,p+q\}$ is called a local antimagic total labeling of $G$ if for any two adjacent vertices $u$ and $v$, we have $w(u)\ne…

A graph $G$ is called edge-magic if there exists a bijective function $f:V\left(G\right) \cup E\left(G\right)\rightarrow \left\{1, 2, \ldots , \left\vert V\left( G\right) \right\vert +\left\vert E\left( G\right) \right\vert \right\}$ such…

A dominating set in a graph $G$ is a set $S$ of vertices such that every vertex of $G$ is either in $S$ or is adjacent to a vertex in $S$. Nordhaus-Gaddum inequailties relate a graph $G$ to its complement $\bar{G}$. In this spirit Wagner…

A path decomposition of a graph G is a collection of edge-disjoint paths of G that covers the edge set of G. Gallai (1968) conjectured that every connected graph on n vertices admits a path decomposition of cardinality at most (n+1)/2.…

We consider the problem of partitioning the edge set of a graph $G$ into the minimum number $\tau(G)$ of edge-disjoint complete bipartite subgraphs. We show that for a random graph $G$ in $G(n,p)$, for $p$ is a constant no greater than…

A \textit{subtractive arc-magic labeling} (SAML) of a directed graph $G=(V,A)$ is a bijection $\lambda :V\cup A \to \{1,2,\ldots,|V|+|A|\}$ with the property that for every $xy\in A$ we have $\lambda(xy)+\lambda(y)-\lambda(x)$ equals to an…

A bijective function $f:V\rightarrow\left\{1,2,3,...,|V| \right\}$ is said to be a local distance antimagic labeling of a graph $G=(V,E)$, if $w(u)\neq w(v)$ for any two adjacent vertices $u, v$ where the weight $w(v)=\sum_{z\in N(v)}f(z)$.…

A classical result by Otter shows that the complete graph has an exponential number of non-isomorphic spanning trees. This was recently extended by Lee to every almost regular graph of sufficiently large degree. In this paper, we consider…

Let $G$ be a graph and $\mathcal {S}$ be a subset of $Z$. A vertex-coloring $\mathcal {S}$-edge-weighting of $G$ is an assignment of weight $s$ by the elements of $\mathcal {S}$ to each edge of $G$ so that adjacent vertices have different…

For a graph $G(V,E)$ of size $q$, a bijection $f : E(G) \to [1,q]$ is a local antimagc labeling if it induces a vertex labeling $f^+ : V(G) \to \mathbb{N}$ such that $f^+(u) \ne f^+(v)$, where $f^+(u)$ is the sum of all the incident edge…
