Let $G=(V,E)$ be a simple graph. A function $f:V\rightarrow \mathbb{N}\cup \{0\}$ is called a configuration of pebbles on the vertices of $G$ and the weight of $f$ is $w(f)=\sum_{u\in V}f(u)$ which is just the total number of pebbles…
Pebbling is a game played on a graph. The single player is given a graph and a configuration of pebbles and may make pebbling moves by removing 2 pebbles from one vertex and placing one at an adjacent vertex to eventually have one pebble…

A pebbling move on a graph removes two pebbles from a vertex and adds one pebble to an adjacent vertex. A vertex is reachable from a pebble distribution if it is possible to move a pebble to that vertex using pebbling moves. The optimal…
In a graph G with a distribution of pebbles on its vertices, a pebbling move is the removal of two pebbles from one vertex and the addition of one pebble to an adjacent vertex. A weight function on G is a non-negative integer-valued…

Consider a distribution of pebbles on a graph. A pebbling move removes two pebbles from a vertex and place one at an adjacent vertex. A vertex is reachable under a pebble distribution if it has a pebble after the application of a sequence…
Suppose that pebbles are distributed on the vertices of a graph G. A pebbling step along an edge uv removes two pebbles from u and places one pebble on v. We introduce two new graph parameters: stack(G): the least integer t such that every…
Recent research in graph pebbling has introduced the notion of a cover pebbling number. Along this same idea, we develop a more general pebbling function Pi(G, t, P). This measures the minimum number of pebbles needed to guarantee that any…
Given a configuration of pebbles on the vertices of a connected graph $G$, a \emph{pebbling move} removes two pebbles from some vertex and places one pebble on an adjacent vertex. The \emph{pebbling number} of a graph $G$ is the smallest…
Let $G=(V,E)$ be a simple graph. A pebbling configuration on $G$ is a function $f:V\rightarrow \mathbb{N}\cup \{0\}$ that assigns a non-negative integer number of pebbles to each vertex. The weight of a configuration $f$ is $w(f)=\sum_{u\in…
Graph pebbling is a network optimization model for satisfying vertex demands with vertex supplies (called pebbles), with partial loss of pebbles in transit. The pebbling number of a demand in a graph is the smallest number for which every…
Given a distribution of pebbles on the vertices of a graph G, a {\it pebbling move} takes two pebbles from one vertex and puts one on a neighboring vertex. The {\it pebbling number} \Pi(G) is the minimum k such that for every distribution…
We survey results on the pebbling numbers of graphs as well as their historical connection with a number-theoretic question of Erd\H os and Lemke. We also present new results on two probabilistic pebbling considerations, first the random…
In this paper, we define a new parameter of a graph as a spin-off of the pebbling number (which is the smallest $t$ such that every supply of $t$ pebbles can satisfy every demand of one pebble). This new parameter is the singular pebbling…
Graph pebbling is a network model for transporting discrete resources that are consumed in transit. Deciding whether a given configuration on a particular graph can reach a specified target is ${\sf NP}$-complete, even for diameter two…
Pebbling on graphs is a two-player game which involves repeatedly moving a pebble from one vertex to another by removing another pebble from the first vertex. The pebbling number $\pi(G)$ is the least number of pebbles required so that,…
Graph pebbling is a network model for studying whether or not a given supply of discrete pebbles can satisfy a given demand via pebbling moves. A pebbling move across an edge of a graph takes two pebbles from one endpoint and places one…
