A simple graph G = (V,E) admits an H-covering if every edge in E belongs to a subgraph of G isomorphic to a given graph H . Then the graph G admitting an H-covering is (a, d)-H-antimagic if there exists a bijection f : V ∪ E → {1, 2, . . . , |V | + |E|} such that, for all subgraphs ∗ Corresponding author. P.

Let F ={H1, . . . ,Hk} be a family of graphs. A graph G with m edges is called totallyF -decomposable if for every linear combination of the form α1e(H1)+ · · ·+αke(Hk) = m whereeach αi is a nonnegative integer, there is a coloring of the edges of G with α1 + · · ·+ αk colorssuch that exactly αi color classes induce each a copy of Hi, for i = 1, . . . , k. We prove that ...

Given a decomposable graph, we characterize and enumerate the set of pairs of vertices whose connection or disconnection results in a new graph that is also decomposable. We discuss the relevance of this results to Markov chain Monte Carlo methods that sample or optimize over the space of decomposable graphical models according to probabilities determined by a posterior distribution given obser...

let f, g and h be non-empty graphs. the notation f → (g,h) means that if any edge of f is colored by red or blue, then either the red subgraph of f con- tains a graph g or the blue subgraph of f contains a graph h. a graph f (without isolated vertices) is called a ramsey (g,h)−minimal if f → (g,h) and for every e ∈ e(f), (f − e) 9 (g,h). the set of all ramsey (g,h)−minimal graphs is denoted by ...

In this paper, a complete characterization of the (super) edge-magic linear forests with two components is provided. In the process of establishing this characterization, the super edge-magic, harmonious, sequential and felicitous properties of certain 2-regular graphs are investigated , and several results on super edge-magic and felicitous labelings of unions of cycles and paths are presented...

For every h ∈ N, a graph G with the vertex set V (G) and the edge set E(G) is said to be h-magic if there exists a labeling l : E(G) → Zh\{0} such that the induced vertex labeling s : V (G) → Zh, defined by s(v) = ∑ uv∈E(G) l(uv) is a constant map. When this constant is zero, we say that G admits a zero-sum h-magic labeling. The null set of a graph G, denoted by N(G), is the set of all natural ...

All graphs under consideration are nonnull, finite, undirected, and simple graphs. We adopt the standard notations dG(v) for the degree of the vertex v in the graph G, and ∆(G) for the maximum degree of the vertices of G. The edge chromatic number, χ′(G), of G is the minimum number of colors required to color the edges of G in such a way that no two adjacent edges have the same color. A graph i...

A 1-vertex-magic vertex labeling of a graph G(V,E) with p vertices is a bijection f from the vertex set V (G) to the integers 1, 2, . . . , p with the property that there is a constant k such that at any vertex x the sum ∑ f(x) taken over all neighbors of x is k. In this paper, we study the 1-vertex-magic vertex labelings of two families of disconnected graphs, namely a disjoint union of m copi...
