## Abstract Given a graph Ξ an abelian group __G__, and a labeling of the vertices of Ξ with elements of __G__, necessary and sufficient conditions are stated for the existence of a labeling of the edges in which the label of each vertex equals the product of the labels of its incident edges. Such

β¦ Synopsis
A valuation on a simple graph G IS an assignment of labels to the vertices of G which induces an assignment of labels to the edges of G. pvaluations, also called graceful labelings, and a-valuations, a subclass of graceful labelings, have an extensive literature; harmonious labelings have been introduced recently by Graham and Sloane. This paper introduces sequential labelings, a subclass of harmonious labelings, and shows that any tree admitting an a-valuation also admits a sequential labeling and hence is harmonious. Constructions are given for new families of graceful and sequential graphs, generalizing some earlier results. Finally, a conjecture of Frucht is shown to be wrong by exhibiting several graceful labelings of wheels in which the center label is larger than previously thought possible.

## Abstract A strongly harmonious labeling is the nonmodular version of a harmonious labeling. The windmill graph __K__^(__t__^)~__n__~ is the graph consisting of __t__ copies of the complete graph __K~n~__ with a vertex in common. It is shown that, for __t__ β₯ 1, __K__^(__t__^)~__n__~ is strongly
We extend the well-studied concept of a graph power to that of a k-leaf power G of a tree T : G is formed by creating a node for each leaf in the tree and an edge between a pair of nodes if and only if the associated leaves are connected by a path of length at most k. By discovering hidden combinato
## Abstract Suppose __G__ is a graph, __k__ is a nonβnegative integer. We say __G__ is __k__βantimagic if there is an injection __f__: __E__β{1, 2, β¦, |__E__| + __k__} such that for any two distinct vertices __u__ and __v__, . We say __G__ is weightedβ__k__βantimagic if for any vertex weight functi
