On the barycentric labeling of certain graphs (Q2018963): Difference between revisions

Summary: Let \(A\) be an abelian group. A graph \(G\) is called \(A\)-magic if there exists edge labeling \(\ell:E(G)\to A\setminus\{0\}\) such that the induced vertex set labeling \(\ell^+:V(G)\to A\), defined by \(\ell^+(V)=\sum_{uv\in E(G)}\ell(uv)\), where the sum is over all edges in \(E(G)\), is a constant map. A graph \(G\) is \(A\)-barycentric-magic (or has \(A\)-barycentric labeling) if \(G\) is \(A\)-magic and also satisfies \(\ell^+(V)=\deg(V)\ell(u,v)\) for all \(v\in V\) and for some vertex \(u\) adjacent to \(v\). In this paper we consider some graphs \(G\) and characterize all \(m\in \mathbb N\) for which \(G\) is \(\mathbb Z_m\)-barycentric-magic.
