Let $G=(V(G),E(G))$ be a simple, finite and undirected graph of order $p$ and size $q$. For $k\ge 1$, a bijection $f: V(G)\cup E(G) \to \{k, k+1, k+2, \ldots, k+p+q-1\}$ such that $f(uv)= |f(u) - f(v)|$ for every edge $uv\in E(G)$ is said…

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…

A graceful n-permutation is a graceful labeling of an n-vertex path P_n. In this paper we improve the asymptotic lower bound on the number of such permutations from (5/3)^n to 2.37^n. This is a computer-assisted proof based on an effective…

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…

A total prime labeling of a graph of order $n$ is an extension of a prime labeling in which we distinctly label the vertices and edges. The goal of the labeling is for adjacent vertex labels to be relatively prime, and for each vertex of…

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 prove that, given a finite graph $\Sigma$ satisfying some mild conditions, there exist infinitely many tetravalent half-arc-transitive normal covers of $\Sigma$. Applying this result, we establish the existence of infinite families of…

A difference vertex labeling of a graph G is an assignment f of labels to the vertices of G that induces for each edge xy the weight |f(x)-f(y)|. A difference vertex labeling f of a graph G of size n is odd-graceful if f is an injection…

In this article we prove new results about the existence of 2-cells in disc diagrams which are extreme in the sense that they are attached to the rest of the diagram along a small connected portion of their boundary cycle. In particular, we…

The subclass of Euler graphs with only one type of cycles under (mod 4) operation was studied in Part-1 of this series. It was established that such graphs under regularity are nonexistent for degree >2. Here we consider the subclass of…

A graceful difference labeling (gdl for short) of a directed graph G with vertex set V is a bijection f between V and {1,...,|V|} such that, when each arc uv is assigned the difference label f(v)-f(u), the resulting arc labels are distinct.…

Let X be a smooth complex projective curve of genus g bigger or equal to 1. If g is bigger than 1 assume further that X is either bielliptic or with general moduli. Under a natural condition on slopes, we prove that there exists a short…

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…

We prove via a composition lemma, the Kotzig-Ringel-Rosa conjecture, better known as the Graceful Labeling Conjecture. We also prove via a stronger version of the composition lemma a stronger form of the Graceful Labeling Conjecture.

The theory of voltage graphs has become a standard tool in the study graphs admitting a semiregular group of automorphisms. We introduce the notion of a cyclic generalised voltage graph to extend the scope of this theory to graphs admitting…

In this paper we introduce a generalization of the well known concept of a graceful labeling. Given a graph G with e=dm edges, we call d-graceful labeling of G an injective function from V(G) to the set {0,1,2,..., d(m+1)-1} such that…

A graph $G$ with $p$ vertices and $q$ edges is said to be edge-graceful if its edges can be labeled from $1$ through $q$, in such a way that the labels induced on the vertices by adding over the labels of incident edges modulo $p$ are…

Using cyclotomic classes of order twelve for certain finite fields, we construct an infinite family of almost difference sets and normally regular graphs applying the theory of cyclotomy. We show that in each of these fields neither the…
