A strong edge-coloring of a graph $G$ is an edge-coloring such that any two edges of distance at most two receive distinct colors. The minimum number of colors we need in order to give $G$ a strong edge-coloring is called the strong…

For any graph $G$ of order $p$, a bijection $f: V(G)\to [1,p]$ is called a numbering of the graph $G$ of order $p$. The strength $str_f(G)$ of a numbering $f: V(G)\to [1,p]$ of $G$ is defined by $str_f(G) = \max\{f(u)+f(v)\; |\; uv\in…

In this paper, we introduce and study a novel graph parameter called the $k$-defect number, denoted $\phi_{k}(G)$, for a graph $G$ and an integer $0\leq k\leq |E(G)|$. Unlike traditional defective colorings that bound the local degree…

Given a non-trivial graph $G$, the minimum cardinality of a set of edges $F$ in $G$ such that $\chi'(G \setminus F)<\chi'(G)$ is called the chromatic edge stability index of $G$, denoted by $es_{\chi'}(G)$, and such a (smallest) set $F$ is…

The {\em chromatic edge-stability number} $es_{\chi}(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the minimum number of edges whose removal results in a spanning subgraph with the chromatic number smaller than that of $G$. A graph $G$ is called {\em…

A graph $G$ is $k$-$weighted-list-antimagic$ if for any vertex weighting $\omega\colon V(G)\to\mathbb{R}$ and any list assignment $L\colon E(G)\to2^{\mathbb{R}}$ with $|L(e)|\geq |E(G)|+k$ there exists an edge labeling $f$ such that…

Given an integer $k\ge1$, an edge-$k$-coloring of a graph $G$ is an assignment of $k$ colors $1,\ldots,k$ to the edges of $G$ such that no two adjacent edges receive the same color. A vertex-distinguishing (resp. sum-distinguishing)…

We present a unified approach to compute the total vertex irregularity strength (tvs) of various graphs, employing a novel technique recently proposed by Barra et al. For graphs such as cycles, paths, prisms, wheels, complete graphs, helm…

A good edge-labelling of a simple graph is a labelling of its edges with real numbers such that, for any ordered pair of vertices (u,v), there is at most one nondecreasing path from u to v. Say a graph is good if it admits a good…

The irregularity strength of a graph $G$, $s(G)$, is the least $k$ admitting a $\{1,2,\ldots,k\}$-weighting of the edges of $G$ assuring distinct weighted degrees of all vertices, or equivalently the least possible maximal edge multiplicity…

A good edge-labeling of a graph [Ara\'ujo, Cohen, Giroire, Havet, Discrete Appl. Math., forthcoming] is an assignment of numbers to the edges such that for no pair of vertices, there exist two non-decreasing paths. In this paper, we study…

Given a graph $G$, a \textit{$k$-total difference labeling} of the graph is a total labeling $f$ from the set of edges and vertices to the set $\{1, 2, \cdots k\}$ satisfying that for any edge $\{u,v\}$, $f(\{u,v\})=|f(u)-f(v)|$. If $G$ is…

Let $G$ be a simple connected graph. For any two vertices $u$ and $v$, let $d(u,v)$ denote the distance between $u$ and $v$ in $G$. A radio-$k$-labeling of $G$ for a fixed positive integer $k$ is a function $f$ which assigns to each vertex…

A k-edge-weighting of a graph G is a function w: E(G)->{1,2,...,k}. An edge-weighting naturally induces a vertex coloring c, where for every vertex v in V(G), c(v) is sum of weights of the edges that are adjacent to vertex v. If the induced…

We say that a graph G is $(k,\ell)$-stable if removing $k$ vertices from it reduces its independence number by at most $\ell$. We say that G is tight $(k,\ell)$-stable if it is $(k,\ell)$-stable and its independence number equals…

A star edge-coloring of a graph $G$ is a proper edge-coloring without bichromatic paths or cycles of length four. The smallest integer $k$ such that $G$ admits a star edge-coloring with $k$ colors is the star chromatic index of $G$. In the…

Albertson has defined the irregularity of a simple undirected graph $G=(V,E)$ as $ \irr(G) = \sum_{uv\in E}|d_G(u)-d_G(v)|,$ where $d_G(u)$ denotes the degree of a vertex $u \in V$. Recently, this graph invariant gained interest in the…

We introduce the concept of link-irregular labelings for graphs, extending the notion of link-irregular graphs through edge labeling with positive integers. A labeling is link-irregular if every vertex has a uniquely labeled subgraph…

An edge coloring $c$ of a graph $G$ is a royal $k$-edge coloring of $G$ if the edges of $G$ are assigned nonempty subsets of the set $\{1, 2, \ldots, k\}$ in such a way that the vertex coloring obtained by assigning the union of the colors…

We investigate the \textit{group irregularity strength} ($s_g(G)$) of graphs, i.e. the smallest value of $s$ such that taking any Abelian group $\gr$ of order $s$, there exists a function $f:E(G)\rightarrow \gr$ such that the sums of edge…
