Abstract:
A labeling of a graph is a map that carries graph elements to the numbers
(usually positive or non-negative integers). The most common choices of
domain are the set of all vertices (vertex labelings), the edge set alone (edge
labelings), or the set of all vertices and edges (total labelings). This project
deals with two types of graph labeling namely, super (a, d) antimagic total
labeling and (a, d)-vertex antimagic total labeling. We provide super (a,
d) antimagic total labeling for disjoint unions of Harary graphs and disjoint
unions of cycles. We also provide (a, d)-vertex antimagic total labeling for
disjoint unions of Harary graphs, disjoint unions of cycles, sun graphs and
disjoint unions of sun graphs.

Chapter 1
Basic terminology
In this chapter we discuss basics of graph theory. These are necessary
for the basis of the present study. Also see [36].
There are so much results in this theory that connected to the research
of Rosa in 1967 [32] and also research of Golomb in 1972 [25].
Many authors studied the types and properties of magic labelings, also
many others checked the applications of labeling. Simanjuntak, Baskoro and
Adithia [16], [17] using edge magic labeling showed a secret sharing scheme

construction. Based on Golomb’s and Bloom research [18], [19], Wallis [36]
explained a new concept edge magic total labeling for the radar pulse codes
and communication networks.

2 Definitions
Consider a G is a graph, vertex s ∈ V called adjacent to t ∈ V if ∃ edge st
between s and t. Vertex t is known as neighbour of s. The no. of v’s which
adjacent to s is said to be degree of s and its notation is deg(s). So deg(s)
= |N(u)|. If ∃ not a single such vertex i.e deg(s) = 0 is known as isolated
vertex and similarly vertex containing single vertex i.e deg(s) = 1 will be
end vertex (or simply leaf). The smallest deg(G) is shown as δ = δ(G) =
minis∈V deg(s) and largest deg(G) is represented as ∆ = ∆(G) = maxs∈V
deg(s). A graph is known as regular if each v in G consist of similar degree
u, i.e, δ = ∆ = u, simply it is also represented as an r-regular graph.
Suppose that G1 and G2 are 2 graphs with same order, these are isomorphic
if ∃ 1-to-1 mapping h: G1 −→ G1 that have adjacency property. S h(s) is
adjacent to h(t) iff s is adjacent to t. If G2 = G1 then h is automorphism.
Figure 1: Graph of G
Example 2.2. Since V = {4, 3, 2, 1}. Then E = {{4, 1}, {3, 2}, {2, 1}, {1, 4}}
Then G = (V, E) has 4 vertices and 4 edges. We can show a graph with many

in which lines are edges and meeting point of 2 lines are vertices.
Definition 2.3. Suppose that G is a graph, s ∈ V and deg(s) be the degree
of s, number of nonself loop e adjacent to s + 2x number of selfloops at s.
K be the set, so |K| be any number.
Remark 2.4. All vertices have degree 2 in Figure 9.
Example 2.5.
E = {{a, b}, {c, d}, {b, c}, {d, a}
then visual representation has a loop that starts at a and ends at the same
point.
Definition 2.6. A connected graph is a graph in which each pair of u con-
tained in G joined with a path. We will show it as c-graph. A maximal
c-subgraph H ≤ G, where H is a subgraph of G is known as component of G.
A disconnected graph has more then 1 components. Any edge of a c-graph
G is known as cut-edge for G - e be disconnected. Similarly vertex u of a
c-graph G is cut-vertex for G - u be disconnected.
Definition 2.7. A tree is a c-acyclic graph. One cycle graph is known as
unicyclic graph. A forest is a graph which have every component as tree.
3 Multigraph
Definition 3.1. G is a multi-graph if ∃ 2 e1 , e2 in E so that e1 = e2 . So
that, ∃ 2 vertices e1 , e2 ≤ V such that e2 = e1 = {υ2 , υ1 , }.
Example 3.2. Suppose that the graph connected with Bridges of Konigsburg.
The set V = {E, F, H, I} be a vertex set. Then:
E = {{E, H}, {E, F }, {E, I}, {E, I}, {E, I}, {F, I}, {H, I}}
be the edge collection This is multi-graph as there are 2 bridges attach island
E with F and 2 bridges attached island E with H. If 2 vertices are attached
by 2 or above edges, so edges are describes parallel lines.

4 A Directed graph
Definition 4.1. A graph is said to be directed or (digraph) if it is consist
of a tuple with v vertices V × V and e edges of G = (V, E).
Example 4.2. Suppose that we have a graph which is the digraph with vertex
and edge set. This graph is explained in Fig. 5(a). Also modified selfloop
set of edges becomes:
E = {(1, 2), (3, 4), (2, 3), (1, 1), (4, 1}
Example 4.3. Consider the vertices that show islands in the Konigsburg
Bridges Problem with edges are bridges. We can check that a tour is only
one that we cross the bridge. It is clear that the tour begin from initial point
and carry on its journey to reach at the final point that is 4 and starting
point is one.

6 Isolated Vertex
Definition 6.1. v vertex is said to be isolated if v is a member of set V and
If degree of the vertex v is zero.
7 Degree Sequence
Definition 7.1. Suppose that G with degree sequence is a sequence d ∈ Z n
arranged by the deg(v) ∈ V with decreasing order.
Proof. In this proof we use the basic rule of graph theory Pigeonhole Rule
and is described in Fig. 8, where degree of (v3 ) is equal to the degree of (v4 ).
Consider order of V is n. Each Vi have degree between 0 and n − 1 but
if G has vertex with 0 degree then there is no possibility of any vertex for

Chapter 3
Graph Labeling
This chapter is consist of basic concept that will used in the upcoming
topics. Graph labeling is introduced in mid of 1960s, and developed in the
different labeling types.
We discuss only finite graphs in this chapter. Also the graphs discuss
in the chapter are simple as well as undirected. The order |v| = p and size
|E| = q of the graph where v are vertices and E are set of edgess.
A labeling is consist of mapping that connected with seet of nos. Two
types will be discussed vertex and edge labeling on the basis of vertex and
edges. Also the labeling is said to be total labeling if it is labeled both
edgewise and vertexwise. These are connected with the research of Rosa
[32] in 1967, or Graham and Sloane [?] in 1980.
This is based on the elements condition. Which will be explained in the
thesis.
Lemma 4.3.1 Consider a graph having n order with e size is super (c,
d)-EAT labeled graph then
2m + e − 5
d≤
e−1
Proof. Consider ∃ a bijection mapping α : V ∪ E −→ {1, 2, ..., m + e} be
super (c, d)-EAT, and W = {wt(yz) : wt(yz) = α(y)α(z) + α(yz), yz ∈ E}
= { c, c + d, c + 2d, ..., c + (e - 1)d} edge weights. Clearly least possible e
weight contained in super (a, d)-EAT labeling is minimum m + 4. Obviously,
a ≥ m + 4. Similarly, the largest possible edge weight is maximum 3m + e
- 1.
20
c + (e - 1)d ≤ 3m + e - 1
and
2m + e − 5
d≤
e−1
Cycles Cm with even number of vertices cannot admit super (c, 0)-EAT or
super (c, 2)-EAT labeling. The complete result for super (c, d)-EAT labeling
for Cm is presented in Section 4.6.
Theorem 20.1. [10] Let G be a regular odd degree (q, r) graph. If q ≡ 2
(mod 4) and q ≡ 0 (mod 2) then G is not super (a, d) -EAT for every odd d.
Proof. Consider G be super (a, d) - EAT with odd degree vertices of G. In
the calculation of the edge-weights, every edge labelonly one time used and
each label of vertex υ ∈ V (G) deg(υ) times used.

Clearly q ≡ 2 (mod 4) r even and d odd, then L.H.S of the equation is odd
but R.H.S of equation is even, a contradiction.
Lemma 20.2. [33]. Let < = {b, b + 1, b + 2, ...b + j} be a sequence, j is
even, then ∃ a permutation q(<) such that
< + q(<) = {2b + 2j , 2b + 2j + 1, 2b + 2j + 2, ..., 2b + 3j2 − 1, 2b + 3j2 }.
Proof. Let < = {bi : bi = b + (k − 1), 1 ≤ k ≤ j + 1} and j even.
Define Π(<) = {bk : 1 ≤ k ≤ j + 1} of the elements of < as

Let us consider three cases.
1st Case. dis0
y+x
If m is even, m = 2j, then a = 5j + 1 + 2j+1 .
It will be integer for y + x ≡ 0 (mod 2j+1).
Then condition 1 ≤ y, x ≤ 2 ⇒ y + x = 2j + 1. consequently, a = 5j + 2.
y+x
If m = odd, m = 2j + 1, , then a = 5j + 27 + 2j+2 .
1 ≤ y, x ≤ j +1,we have either = y+x = j +1 and a = 5j +4 or y+x = 3j +3
and a + 5j + 5.
2nd Case. dis1
y+x
thus a = 2m + 1 + m+1 . using condition 1 ≤ y, ≤ m, it is clear that a is an
integer iff
y + x = m + 1. Thus a = 2m + 2.
3rd Case. disequal2
y+x
If m is even m = 2j, then a = 3j + 1 + 2j+1 if is an integer if y + x ≡ 0 (mod
2j +1).
The condition 1 ≤ y, x ≤ 2j implies y + x = 2j + 1 and a = 3j + 2.
y+x
When m is odd, m = 2j + 1 we get a = 3j + 25 + 2j+2 .
Since 1 ≤ y, x ≤ 2j +1, either y+x = j +1 and a = 3j +3 and a = 3j +4.

Chapter 4
Antimagic Labeling
There are many new research article already been introduced on (a, d)-
VAT labeling, but there accures many others topics on this labeling that
is still need to solve. Here we give some new research on the labeling and
present its description as well as its properties of different kinds of labeling
of the specific graph families. New ideas about labeling on VAE and SVAT
labelings of magic total labeling.
In this chapter we show v vertex and e edges and graph shown as G here
G be simple as well as undirected graph. The labeling is a procedure of
integers to put them in a certain condition. We consider a labeling is a
vertex labeling if there exist a set of vertices be the domain of the mapping.
Similarly an edge labeling be the set of edges in a domain of a mapping.
Recently, many labeling methods have been introduced up to one thousand
research papers. In these labeling the most common graph labelings are such
as k-labeling and (k, d)-graceful, α labeling, skolem graceful, k-equitable and
odd graceful. It is already defined in earlier chapter, the magic labeling con-
cept was introduced by Sedlaecek since 1963. Hartsfield showed the idea
of antimagic labeling and Ringel since 1989. Also first time (a,d)-vertex
antimagic edge labelin introduced by the authors Bodendiek, Nicholas et
al. and Walther in 1996. In antimagic and magic labelings, we use only
summation of a graph element. This is known as ’weight’ wt, a ∈ V , wt(a)
P.
= β(a)+2 β(ab), ∀ a ∈ V, β(a) = 0 under the edge labeling, and β(a)
y∈N (a)
6= 0 by total labeling. The wt(ab) ∈ E, by labeling β, be wt(ab) = β(a) +
β(b) + β β(ab) = 0 ∀ (ab) ∈ E, under the vertex labeling, also β(ab) 6= 0
under the total labeling. As there are so much kinds of antimagic have been
discussed.

k + (k + 1).
Thus
a + (e − 1) = a + 2k − 2 ≤ 2k + 1

Since 5 ≤ f (x1 ) + f (xk ) ≤ 2k + 1, then it follows that k = 2, or, k = 3.

The edge weights 3, 4, ...k + 1 are obtained as sums of

27 ANTIMAGIC TOTAL LABELINGS FOR
UNION OF GRAPHS
27.1 Introduction
Now we prove antimagic labeling for union of graphs. For this we mostly
use the star graph. Then we will give some definitions, propositions and
theorems.
The equation that will be used much in this section is
P P P
deg(u)h(u) + h(e) = w(e)
u∈V (G) e∈E(G) e∈E(G)
2
d≤3+
s+t−1
. Thus if s + t ≥ 4, d ≤ 3. Also proved (a, d)-SEAMT with d ≤ 2.
27.1.1 Problem
and
44
K1,4 ∪ K1,2 have (12, 3)-SEAMT also (14, 3)-SEAMT labeling, given below.
Now we will prove some theorems which shows s ≥ t+2, only this graph
contains (a,3)-SEAMT labeling.
27.1.2 Theorem
Consider K1,s ∪ K1,t graph with s ≥ t+2, not have (a,3)-SEAMT labeling
but s = 4 and n = 2.
Proof. As it is clear that size of K1,s ∪ K1,t is v = s + t and its order is u = s
+ t + 2. Now our hypothesis is that ∃ (a,3)-SEAMT labeling for K1,s ∪ K1,t
which is h : V ∪ E −→ {1, 2, 3, ..., u + v}. Suppose that h(b1 ) = j1 and
45
h(b2 ) = j2 . As deg(b1 ) = s, deg(b2 ) = t and deg(w) = 1 ∀ w ∈ V - b1 , b2 ,
then the eq. given on the start of this section is
u(u + 1) (u+v)(u+v+1) u(u + 1) 3v(v−1)
[ − (j1 + j2 )] + sj1 + tj2 + 2
− = av + 2
2 2
simplifying
(2s − 2)j1 + (2t − 2)j2 + s2 + t2 + 2st + 13s + 13t + 6
a= ..........(i)
2s + 2t
As the least possible edgeweight is minimum s + t + 6, so a ≥ s + t + 6.
Similarly largest will be as 4s + 4t + 5, ⇒ a ≤ s + t + 8. Hence s + t
+ 6 ≤ a ≤ s + t + 8. Suppose that there are 2 edges which contained in
K1,s ∪ K1,t having smallest and greatest weight resp. We suppose e1 incident
with b1 and e2 incident with b2 . Then
Case 1. a = s + t + 6
Put in equation (i)
46
7 and h(e1 ) ≥ s + t + 3.
Hence j1 = 1, 2 or 3. ∀ 9 values of j1 and j2 the given eq. which is taken
from (iii) give no solution for s and t with s ≥ t + 2.
Case 2. a = s + t + 8
If K1,s ∪ K1,t admits (s + t + 8, 3)-SEAMT labeling, then h is an (s + t +
6, 3)-SEAMT labeling that is exists only s = 4 and t = 2 by case 1.
