Not all wheel graphs were Edge-graceful

Abstract:

Graceful labeling is assignment of distinct labels from f {0,…., |E|} to vertices of graph, where edges are labeled by difference of absolute values of adjacent vertices and every label from f {1,2,….,|E|} is used exactly once as an edge label. Edge – graceful graphs were defined by Sheng-Ping in 1985 is originated from graceful graphs. In fact, edge – gracefulness is reversal of gracefulness. It involves labeling edges, rather than vertices, with an induced numbering consisting of sums of edge- labels, rather than differences of vertex labels. In this paper, we are discussing about the edge graceful labeling of wheel graphs and related results

Keywords: graph labeling, graceful labeling, edge - graceful labeling, wheel graph.
