A graph labeling is an assignment of integers to the vertices or edges, or both, subject to certain conditions. A graph is said to be a fuzzy labeling graph if it has fuzzy labeling. A fuzzy labeling graph is said to be a fuzzy magic graph if σ(u)+µ(uv)+σ(v) has a same value for all u,v ∈V which is denoted as m0(G).Every fuzzy magic graph is a fuzzy labeling graph ,but the converse is not true. The application of fuzzy magic graph is illustrated with suitable example. Key Words:Fuzzy graph, fuzzy labeling, fuzzy magic graph, wheel graph, fan graph. Subject Classification:TT1-AM010 1161 International Journal of Pure and Applied Mathematics Special Issue 1. Introduction Fuzzy set is a newly emerging mathematical frame work exemplify the phenomenon of uncertainly in real life tribulations[1]. A fuzzy set is defined mathematically by assigning a value to each possible individual in the universe of discourse, representing its grade of membership which corresponds to the degree to which that individually similar or compatible with the concept represented the fuzzy set . Based on Zadeh’s Fuzzy relation the definition of a fuzzy graph was introduced by Kauffmann in 1973.One of the first important papers on fuzzy graph theory was by Azriel Rosenfeld[4]. Rosenfeld introduce and examined such concepts as paths, connectedness , bridges , cut vertices , forests and trees [2].A fuzzy graph is the generalisation of the crisp graph. Therefore it is natural many properties are similar to crisp graph and also it deviates at many places [6]. The notation of magic graph was first introduced by Sunitha and Vijayakumar in 1964[3]. He defined a graph to be magic if it has an edge-labelling, within the range of real numbers, such that the sum of the labels around any vertex equals some constant, independent of the choice of vertex.Kotzig and Rosa defined a magic labelling to be a total in which the labels are the integers from one to 푉 퐺 + 퐸 퐺 1 .The sum of labels on an edge and its two endpoints is constant. In this paper, section 1 contain basic definitions and in section 2 , fuzzy magic labelling for some graphs.e.g. Wheel, fan , paw, helm, butterfly. 2. Preliminaries Definition 2.1 Let U and V be two sets . Then is said to be a fuzzy relation from U into V if is a fuzzy set of UxV. Definition 2.2 A fuzzy graph G=(, 휇) is a pair of functions : 푉 → 0,1 푎푛푑 휇: 푉 × 푉 → [0,1], where for all u,v ∈ 푉,we have 휇(푢, 푣) ≤ (푢)ʌ(푣). Definition 2.3 A labeling of a graph is an assignment of a values to the vertices and the edges of a graph. Definition 2.4 A graph G=(, 휇) is said to be a fuzzy labeling graph if : 푉 → 0,1 푎푛푑 휇: 푉 × 푉 → [0,1],is bijective such that the membership value of edges and vertices are distinct and 휇 푢, 푣 < 푢 ʌ(푣) for all 푢, 푣 ∈ 푉 1162 International Journal of Pure and Applied Mathematics Special Issue Example 2.1 Definition 2.5 A fuzzy labeling graph is said to be a fuzzy vertex magic graph if 푢 + 휇(푢, 푣) + (푣) has a same magic value for all 푢, 푣 ∈ 푉 which is denoted as 푚0 퐺 Definition 2.6 A fuzzy labeling graph is said to be a fuzzy edge magic graph if 푢 + 휇(푢, 푣) + (푣) has a same magic value for all 푢, 푣 ∈ 푉 which is denoted as 푀0 퐺 . Definition 2.7 A fuzzy labeling graph is said to be a fuzzy totally magic graph if and only if there exist a fuzzy labelling f which is both fuzzy edge magic with magic value M0 and fuzzy vertex magic with magic value m0.It is not required that M0=m0. Definition 2.8 Let G= (V,휇, ) be a fuzzy graph. Then the degree of a vertex v is defined by 푑(푣) 푢≠푣= µ(푢, 푣) The minimum degree of G is 훿 퐺 = ʌ{푑(푣)/푣 ∈ 푉} The maximum degree of G is ∆ 퐺 = ᴠ{푑(푣)/푣 ∈ 푉} Remark 2.1 Degree of any pair of vertices u,v in magic fuzzy graph always different from each other’s and sum of degrees of nodes must be equal to twice the membership values of all arcs. Proposition 2.1 In a fuzzy magic graph G, the order of G is always greater than or equal to the size of G . i.e., O(G)≥ 푆(퐺) In any fuzzy magic graph G, the following inequality holds: 훿(퐺) ≤ ∆(퐺) ≤ 푆(퐺) ≤ 푂(퐺) 1163 International Journal of Pure and Applied Mathematics Special Issue Proof Let G=(V,, 휇) be any fuzzy magic graph, 푉 ≠ ∅, where − fuzzy subset of V and 휇 − 푓푢푧푧푦 subset of VxV. Since 훿(퐺) and ∆(퐺) are minimum and maximum degree of G respectively. Clearly, 훿 퐺 ≤ ∆ 퐺 … … … … … . (1) We have, O(G)= 푥∈푉 (푥), the order of G S(G)= x≠y μ(x, y), the size of G By the definitions, 푥≠푦 휇(푥, 푦) ≥ 푉{푑(푣)/푣 ∈ 푉} i.e., S(G)≥ ∆ 퐺 … … … … … … (2) Also, in a fuzzy magic graph, the membership value of an edge is less than or equal to the minimum value of the edge connecting vertices. ∴ 푂 퐺 ≥ 푆 퐺 … … … … . (3) From (1),(2), and (3) we get, 훿 퐺 ≤ ∆ 퐺 ≤ 푆 퐺 ≤ 푂 퐺 . Example 2.2 Consider a fuzzy graph G=(V,휇, ).Let V={v1,v2,v3,v4},(v1)=0.4, (v1)=0.4 , (v2)=0.3 (v3)=0.2, (v4)=0.26, 휇(v1,v2)=0.04, 휇(v2,v3)=0.09, 휇(v3,v4)=0.16,휇(v2,v4)=0.02, 휇(v4,v1)=0.01,d(v1)=0.05,d(v2)=0.15, d(v3)=0.25,d(v4)=0.19,훿 퐺 = 0.05, ∆(G)=0.25,S(G)=0.32,O(G)=1.16 Thus,훿 퐺 ≤ ∆ 퐺 ≤ 푆 퐺 ≤ 푂 퐺 . 1164 International Journal of Pure and Applied Mathematics Special Issue Some Examples of Fuzzy Magic Graphs Butterfly Graph The butterfly graph is a plannar undirected graph with 5 vertices and 6 edges. Example 2.3 Pan graph The Pan graph is the graph obtained by joining a cycle graph to a singleton graph with a bridge. The special case of the 3-pan graph is sometimes known as the paw graph and the 4-pan graph as the banner graph. Example 2.4 Wheel Graph A Wheel graph is a graph formed by connecting a single vertex to all the vertices of a cycle. For n≥4 the wheel Wn is defined to be the graph K1+Cn-1 1165 International Journal of Pure and Applied Mathematics Special Issue Example 2.5 Fan Graph A Fan graph Fm,n is defined as the graph join Km+Pn, where Km is the empty graph on m vertices and Pn is the path graph on n vertices. The case m=1 corresponds to the usual fan graphs ,while m=2 corresponds to the double fan, etc., Example 2.6 Helm Graph The helm graph is the graph obtained from an wheel graph by adjoining a pendent edge at each vertex of the cycle. 1166 International Journal of Pure and Applied Mathematics Special Issue Example 2.7 Bull Graph The bull graph is a planar undirected graph with 5 vertices and 5 edges,in the form of a triangle with two disjoint pendant edges. Example 2.8 Result: For n≥1,a fuzzy Path Pn is consider as a fuzzy magic graph, where n is length of Pn. 3. Application of Fuzzy Vertex Magic Labeling A College wants to provide equal number of computer to its departments such that each computer is utilized either by one department or by two departments. Here the problem is to find the number of computers allocated to each department and also to find number of computers utilized by one department 1167 International Journal of Pure and Applied Mathematics Special Issue and number of computers used by two departments. Representing this situation as a graph by considering the departments as vertices and if two departments shares computers then there is an edge between the corresponding vertices. Considering the fuzzy vertex magic labeling to this graph we are able to get the solution needed. Problem A College wants to provide equal number of computers to its 5 departments Mathematics, English, Computer Science, Physics and Chemistry. In order to reduce the idle time of the computers the college allows few computers can be used by two departments. Suppose every department utilizing few computers which are utilized by other departments. Find the number of computers allotted to each department in percentage. Find the number of computers utilized by one department and by two departments in percentage.

  • Enumeration of Unlabeled Graph Classes a Study of Tree Decompositions and Related Approaches
    Enumeration of unlabeled graph classes A study of tree decompositions and related approaches Jessica Shi Advisor: Jérémie Lumbroso Independent Work Report Fall, 2015 Abstract In this paper, we study the enumeration of certain classes of graphs that can be fully charac- terized by tree decompositions; these classes are particularly significant due to the algorithmic improvements derived from tree decompositions on classically NP-complete problems on these classes [12, 7, 17, 35]. Previously, Chauve et al. [6] and Iriza [26] constructed grammars from the split decomposition trees of distance hereditary graphs and 3-leaf power graphs. We extend upon these results to obtain an upper bound grammar for parity graphs. Also, Nakano et al. [25] used the vertex incremental characterization of distance hereditary graphs to obtain upper bounds. We constructively enumerate (6;2)-chordal bipartite graphs, (C5, bull, gem, co-gem)-free graphs, and parity graphs using their vertex incremental characterization and extend upon Nakano et al.’s results to analytically obtain upper bounds of O7n and O11n for (6;2)-chordal bipartite graphs and (C5, bull, gem, co-gem)-free graphs respectively. 1. Introduction 1.1. Context The technique of decomposing graphs into trees has been an object of significant interest due to its applications on classical problems in graph theory. Indeed, many graph theoretic problems are inherently difficult due to the lack of recursive structure in graphs, and recursion has historically offered efficient solutions to challenging problems. In this sense, classifying graphs in terms of trees is of particular interest, since it associates a recursive structure to these graphs.

The max-cut problem is a classical graph theory problem which is NP-complete. The best polynomial time approximation scheme relies on semidefinite programming (SDP). We study the conditions under which graphs of certain classes have rank 1 solutions to the max-cut SDP. We apply these findings to look at how solutions to the max-cut SDP behave under simple combinatorial constructions. Our results determine when solutions to the max-cut SDP for cycle graphs is rank 1. We find the solutions to the max-cut SDP of the vertex sum of two graphs. We then characterize the SDP solutions upon joining two triangle graphs by an edge sum. Keywords: Max-cut, Semidefinite program, Rank, Cycle graphs, Ver- tex sum, Edge sum Contents 1.

  • Math.RA] 25 Sep 2013 Previous Paper [3], Also Relying in Conceptually Separated Tools from Them, Such As Graphs and Digraphs
    Certain particular families of graphicable algebras Juan Núñez, María Luisa Rodríguez-Arévalo and María Trinidad Villar Dpto. Geometría y Topología. Facultad de Matemáticas. Universidad de Sevilla. Apdo. 1160. 41080-Sevilla, Spain. [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] Abstract In this paper, we introduce some particular families of graphicable algebras obtained by following a relatively new line of research, ini- tiated previously by some of the authors. It consists of the use of certain objects of Discrete Mathematics, mainly graphs and digraphs, to facilitate the study of graphicable algebras, which are a subset of evolution algebras. 2010 Mathematics Subject Classification: 17D99; 05C20; 05C50. Keywords: Graphicable algebras; evolution algebras; graphs. Introduction The main goal of this paper is to advance in the research of a novel mathematical topic emerged not long ago, the evolution algebras in general, and the graphicable algebras (a subset of them) in particular, in order to obtain new results starting from those by Tian (see [4, 5]) and others already obtained by some of us in a arXiv:1309.6469v1 [math.RA] 25 Sep 2013 previous paper [3], also relying in conceptually separated tools from them, such as graphs and digraphs. Concretely, our goal is to find some particular types of graphicable algebras associated with well-known types of graphs. The motivation to deal with evolution algebras in general and graphicable al- gebras in particular is due to the fact that at present, the study of these algebras is very booming, due to the numerous connections between them and many other branches of Mathematics, such as Graph Theory, Group Theory, Markov pro- cesses, dynamic systems and the Theory of Knots, among others.

  • Interlace Polynomials of Friendship Graphs
    Electronic Journal of Graph Theory and Applications 6 (2) (2018), 269–281 Interlace polynomials of friendship graphs Christina Eubanks-Turnera, Aihua Lib aDepartment of Mathematics, Loyola Marymount University, 90045 bDepartment of Mathematical Sciences, Montclair State University, 07043 [email protected], [email protected] Abstract In this paper, we study the interlace polynomials of friendship graphs, that is, graphs that satisfy the Friendship Theorem given by Erdos,¨ Renyi´ and Sos. Explicit formulas, special values, and behaviour of coefficients of these polynomials are provided. We also give the interlace polynomials of other similar graphs, such as, the butterfly graph. Keywords: graph polynomial, interlace polynomial, friendship graph, butterfly graph Mathematics Subject Classification : 05C31, 05C50 DOI: 10.5614/ejgta.2018.6.2.7 1. Introduction Sequencing by hybridization is a method of reconstructing a long DNA string from its nu- cleotide sequence. Since gaining a unique reconstruction from the substrings is not always possi- ble, a major question that arises in this study is “For a random string, how many reconstructions are possible?” In [2], Arratia, Bollobas,´ Coppersmith, and Sorkin answer an important question related to DNA sequencing by converting this to a question about Euler circuits in a 2-in, 2-out graph that have been “toggled” (interlaced). The previously mentioned authors introduced the in- terlace polynomial of a graph, a polynomial that represents the information gained from doing the toggling process on the graph, see [2]. Interlace polynomials are similar to other graph polynomi- als, such as, Tutte and Martin polynomials, see [5]. Some researchers have studied different types of graph polynomials, such as genus polynomials, [7].

  • Minor-Obstructions for Apex Sub-Unicyclic Graphs1
    Minor-Obstructions for Apex Sub-unicyclic Graphs1 Alexandros Leivaditis2 Alexandros Singh3 Giannos Stamoulis3 Dimitrios M. Thilikos4,2,3,5 Konstantinos Tsatsanis3 Vasiliki Velona6,7,8 Abstract A graph is sub-unicyclic if it contains at most one cycle. We also say that a graph G is k-apex sub-unicyclic if it can become sub-unicyclic by removing k of its vertices. We identify 29 graphs that are the minor-obstructions of the class of 1-apex sub-unicyclic graphs, i.e., the set of all minor minimal graphs that do not belong in this class. For bigger values of k, we give an exact structural characterization of all the cactus graphs that are minor-obstructions of k-apex sub- unicyclic graphs and we enumerate them. This implies that, for every k, the class of k-apex sub-unicyclic graphs has at least 0.34 · k−2.5(6.278)k minor-obstructions. Keywords: Graph Minors, Obstruction set, Sub-unicyclc graphs. 1 Introduction A graph is called unicyclic [17] if it contains exactly one cycle and is called sub-unicyclic if it contains at most one cycle. Notice that sub-unicyclic graphs are exactly the subgraphs of unicyclic graphs. A graph H is a minor of a graph G if a graph isomorphic to H can be obtained by some subgraph of G after a series of contractions. We say that a graph class G is minor-closed if every minor of every graph in G also belongs in G. We also define obs(G), called the minor-obstruction set of G, as the set of minor-minimal graphs not in G.

  • Self-Complementary Graphs and Generalisations: a Comprehensive Reference Manual
    Self-complementary graphs and generalisations: a comprehensive reference manual Alastair Farrugia University of Malta August 1999 ii This work was undertaken in part ful¯lment of the Masters of Science degree at the University of Malta, under the supervision of Prof. Stanley Fiorini. Abstract A graph which is isomorphic to its complement is said to be a self-comple- mentary graph, or sc-graph for short. These graphs have a high degree of structure, and yet they are far from trivial. Su±ce to say that the problem of recognising self-complementary graphs, and the problem of checking two sc-graphs for isomorphism, are both equivalent to the graph isomorphism problem. We take a look at this and several other results discovered by the hun- dreds of mathematicians who studied self-complementary graphs in the four decades since the seminal papers of Sachs (UbÄ er selbstkomplementÄare graphen, Publ. Math. Drecen 9 (1962) 270{288. MR 27:1934), Ringel (Selbstkomple- mentÄare Graphen, Arch. Math. 14 (1963) 354{358. MR 25:22) and Read (On the number of self-complementary graphs and digraphs, J. Lond. Math. Soc. 38 (1963) 99{104. MR 26:4339). The areas covered include distance, connectivity, eigenvalues and colour- ing problems in Chapter 1; circuits (especially triangles and Hamiltonicity) and Ramsey numbers in Chapter 2; regular self-complementary graphs and Kotzig's conjectures in Chapter 3; the isomorphism problem, the reconstruc- tion conjecture and self-complement indexes in Chapter 4; self-complement- ary and self-converse digraphs, multi-partite sc-graphs and almost sc-graphs in Chapter 5; degree sequences in Chapter 6, and enumeration in Chapter 7.

  • Parameterized Complexity of Independent Set in H-Free Graphs

Given that 17 the problem remains NP -hard for most graphs H, we study its fixed-parameter tractability and 18 make progress towards a dichotomy between FPT and W [1]-hard cases. We first show that MIS 19 remains W [1]-hard in graphs forbidding simultaneously K1,4, any finite set of cycles of length at 20 least 4, and any finite set of trees with at least two branching vertices. In particular, this answers 21 an open question of Dabrowski et al. concerning C4-free graphs. Then we extend the polynomial 22 algorithm of Alekseev when H is a disjoint union of edges to an FPT algorithm when H is a 23 disjoint union of cliques. We also provide a framework for solving several other cases, which is a 24 generalization of the concept of iterative expansion accompanied by the extraction of a particular 25 structure using Ramsey’s theorem.
