Super (a, d)-G + e-antimagic total labeling of Gu[Sn]

Abstract

Let G = (V, E) be a simple graph and H be a subgraph of G. Then G admits an H-covering, if every edge in E(G) belongs to at least one subgraph of G that is isomorphic to H. An (a, d)-H-antimagic total labeling of G is a bijection ƒ : V (G) ∪ E(G) → {1, 2, 3, ..., |V (G)| + |E(G)|} such that for all subgraphs H’ of G isomorphic to H, the H’ weights w(H^’) = .∑_v∈V(H’) ƒ(v) +∑_e∈E(H’) ƒ(e) constitute an arithmetic progression {a, a + d, a + 2d, ..., a + (n − 1)d}, where a and d are positive integers and n is the number of subgraphs of G isomorphic to H. The labeling ƒ is called a super (a, d)-H-antimagic total labeling if ƒ (V (G)) = {1, 2, 3, ..., |V (G)|}. In [9], authors have posed an open problem to characterize the super (a, d)-G+ e-antimagic total labeling of the graph G_u[S_n], where n ≥ 3 and 4 ≤ d ≤ p+q + 2. In this paper, a partial solution to this problem is obtained.
