A vertex-magic total labeling of a graph G(V; E) is a one-to-one map from E ∪V onto the integers {1; 2; : : : ; |E|+ |V |} such that (x) + ∑ (xy); where the sum is over all vertices y adjacent to x, is a constant, independent of the choice of vertex x. In this paper we examine the existence of vertex-magic total labelings of trees and forests. The situation is quite di9erent from the conjecture...

As everyone matures past the age of the twenties, the body begins to change. There has been a drive for the fountain of youth as long as we have had a recorded history. Since there is no such magic bullet, it is prudent to look at the functioning of the body to determine what are the controlling factors relating to deterioration with age. The same factors that are influenced by age are, not sur...

We study the capability of the MAGIC telescope to observe under moderate

Let G = (V,E) be a graph of order n. A bijection f : V → {1, 2, . . . , n} is called a distance magic labeling of G if there exists a positive integer k such that ∑ u∈N(v) f(u) = k for all v ∈ V, where N(v) is the open neighborhood of v. The constant k is called the magic constant of the labeling f . Any graph which admits a distance magic labeling is called a distance magic graph. In this pape...

where E(v) is the set of edges that have v as an end-point. The total labelling λ of G is vertex-magic if every vertex has the same weight, and the graph G is vertexmagic if a vertex-magic total labelling of G exists. Magic labellings of graphs were introduced by Sedlácěk [5] in 1963, and vertex-magic total labellings first appeared in 2002 in [4]. For a dynamic survey of various forms of graph...

An H-magic labeling in an H-decomposable graph G is a bijection f : V (G)∪E(G)→ {1, 2, . . . , p+ q} such that for every copy H in the decomposition, ∑ v∈V (H) f(v)+ ∑ e∈E(H) f(e) is constant. The function f is said to be H-E-super magic if f(E(G)) = {1, 2, . . . , q}. In this paper, we study some basic properties of m-factor-E-super magic labeling and we provide a necessary and sufficient cond...

This paper describes techniques in computational creativity, blending mathematical modeling and psychological insight, to generate new magic tricks. The details of an explicit computational framework capable of creating new magic tricks are summarized, and evaluated against a range of contemporary theories about what constitutes a creative system. To allow further development of the proposed sy...
