A graph G is called a sum graph if there is a so-called sum labeling of G, i.e. an injective function l : V (G) → N such that for every u, v ∈ V (G) it holds that uv ∈ E(G) if and only if there exists a vertex w ∈ V (G) such that l(u) + l(v) = l(w). We say that sum labeling l is minimal if there is a vertex u ∈ V (G) such that l(u) = 1. In this paper, we show that if we relax the conditions (ei...
