A positive integer $k$ is called a magic constant if there is a graph $G$ along with a bijective function $f$ from $V(G)$ to first $|V(G)|$ natural numbers such that the weight of the vertex $w(v) = \sum_{uv \in E}f(v) =k$ for all $v \in…
Let $G=(V,E)$ be a graph of order $n$. A distance magic labeling of $G$ is a bijection $\ell \colon V\rightarrow {1,...,n}$ for which there exists a positive integer $k$ such that $\sum_{x\in N(v)}\ell (x)=k$ for all $v\in V $, where $N(v)$…
A proper Euler's magic matrix is an integer $n\times n$ matrix $M\in\mathbb Z^{n\times n}$ such that $M\cdot M^t=\gamma\cdot I$ for some nonzero constant $\gamma$, the sum of the squares of the entries along each of the two main diagonals…
Graph labeling is a technique that assigns unique labels or weights to the vertices or edges of a graph, often used to analyze and solve various graph-related problems. There are few methods with certain limitations conducted by researchers…
An associative magic square is a magic square such that the sum of any 2 cells at symmetric positions with respect to the center is constant. The total number of associative magic squares of order 7 is enormous, and thus, it is not…
This paper aims to address the relation between a magic square of odd order $n$ and a group, and their properties. By the modulo number $n$, we construct entries for each table from initial table of magic square with large number $n^2$.…
A mapping $l : E(G) \rightarrow A$, where $A$ is an abelian group which written additively, is called a labeling of the graph $G$. For every positive integer $h \geqslant 2$, a graph $G$ is said to be zero-sum $h$-magic if there is an edge…
A construction of the magic square, and hence of exceptional Lie algebras, is carried out using trialities rather than division algebras. By way of preparation, a comprehensive discussion of trialities is given, incorporating a number of…
A composition of a nonnegative integer (n) is a sequence of positive integers whose sum is (n). A composition is palindromic if it is unchanged when its terms are read in reverse order. We provide a generating function for the number of…
We show the 3 by 3 magic square of squares problem equivalent to solving quartic polynomials with certain factorization constraints over an abelian extension of the rationals. We analyze a particular case in which said extension is assumed…
We provide exact and asymptotic formulae for the number of unrestricted, respectively indecomposable, $d$-dimensional matrices where the sum of all matrix entries with one coordinate fixed equals 2.
A semi-algebraic set is a subset of the real space defined by polynomial equations and inequalities having real coefficients and is a union of finitely many maximally connected components. We consider the problem of deciding whether two…
Graph labellings have been a very fruitful area of research in the last four decades. However, despite the staggering number of papers published in the field (over 1000), few general results are available, and most papers deal with…
Let $\Gamma$ be a group of order $n^2$ and $SMS_{\Gamma}(n)=(a_{i,j})_{n\times n}$ be an $n\times n$ array whose entries are all distinct elements of $\Gamma$. If there exists an element $\mu\in\Gamma$ such that for every row $i$, there…
In formal languages and automata theory, the magic number problem can be formulated as follows: for a given integer n, is it possible to find a number d in the range [n,2^n] such that there is no minimal deterministic finite automaton with…
A multi-latin square of order $n$ and index $k$ is an $n\times n$ array of multisets, each of cardinality $k$, such that each symbol from a fixed set of size $n$ occurs $k$ times in each row and $k$ times in each column. A multi-latin…
Matrices are the most common representations of graphs. They are also used for the representation of algebras and cluster algebras. This paper shows some properties of matrices in order to facilitate the understanding and locating…
A graph $G$ is called edge-magic if there is a bijective function $f$ from the set of vertices and edges to the set $\{1,2,\ldots,|V(G)|+|E(G)|\}$ such that the sum $f(x)+f(xy)+f(y)$ for any $xy$ in $E(G)$ is constant. Such a function is…
This work is about a partition problem which is an instance of the distance magic graph labeling problem. Given positive integers $n,k$ and $p_1\le p_2\le \cdots\le p_k$ such that $p_1+\cdots+p_k=n$ and $k$ divides $\sum_{i=1}^ni$, we study…
A graph is distance magic if it admits a bijective labeling of its vertices by integers from $1$ up to the order of the graph in such a way that the sum of the labels of all the neighbors of a vertex is independent of a given vertex. We…
