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…

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…

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…

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}.…

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…

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,…

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…

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…

We survey the current state of progress on the Graceful Tree Conjecture, and then we present several new results toward the conjecture, driven by three new ideas: (1) It has been proven that generalized banana trees are graceful by…

A graph G=(V,E) with m edges is graceful if it has a distinct vertex labeling f, a map from V into the set{0,1,2,3,...,m} which induces a distinct edge labeling |f(u)-f(v)| for edges uv in E. The famous Ringel-Kotzig conjecture (1964) is…

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…

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…

An independent edge set of graph $G$ is a matching, and is maximal if it is not a proper subset of any other matching of $G$. The number of all the maximal matchings of $G$ is denoted by $\Psi(G)$. In this paper, an algorithm to count…

In this paper, we propose an algorithm to generate all possible graceful graphs (including trees) containing n vertices as lattice paths in a certain triangular lattice defined below. This lattice that corresponds to graphs containing n…

We show that there exists a constant $c>0$ such that every $n$-vertex tree $T$ with $\Delta(T)\le cn$ has Ramsey number $R(T)=\max\{t_1+2t_2,2t_1\}-1$, where $t_1\ge t_2$ are the sizes of the bipartition classes of $T$. This improves an…

We show the Graceful Tree Conjecture holds.

Consider an order $n$ abelian group $G$ and a tree $T$ on $n$ vertices. When is it possible to (bijectively) label $V(T)$ by $G$ so that along all edges $xy$ of $T$, the sums $x+y$ are distinct? This problem can be traced back to the work…

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,…

Let $T$ be a distinguished subset of vertices in a graph $G$. A $T$-\emph{Steiner tree} is a subgraph of $G$ that is a tree and that spans $T$. Kriesell conjectured that $G$ contains $k$ pairwise edge-disjoint $T$-Steiner trees provided…

A tree ${\mathbb T} =\langle T\leq \rangle$ is reversible iff there is no order $\preccurlyeq \;\varsubsetneq \;\leq $ such that ${\mathbb T} \cong \langle T ,\preccurlyeq\rangle$. Using a characterization of reversibility via back and…
