Abstract: Let G be a graph with vertex set V(G) and edge set E(G), and f be a 0-1 labeling of E(G) so that the absolute difference in the number of edges labeled 1 and 0 is no more than one. Call such a labeling f emph{edge-friendly}. We say an edge-friendly labeling induces a emph{partial vertex labeling} if vertices which are incident to more edges labeled 1 than 0, are labeled 1, and vertices which are incident to more edges labeled 0 than 1, are labeled 0. Vertices that are incident to an equal number of edges of both labels we call emph{unlabeled}. Call a procedure on a labeled graph a emph{label switching algorithm} if it consists of pairwise switches of labels. Given an edge-friendly labeling of Kn, we show a label switching algorithm producing an edge-friendly relabeling of Kn such that all the vertices are labeled. We call such a labeling extit{opinionated}.
