Graceful labeling on torch graph

Abstract

Let G be a graph with vertex set V=V(G) and edge set E=E(G). An injective function f:V --> {0,1,2,...,|E|} is called graceful labeling if f induces a function f^*(uv)=|f(u)-f(v)| which is a bijection from E(G) to the set {1,2,3,...,|E|}. A graph which admits a graceful labeling is called a graceful graph. In this paper, we show that torch graph O_n is a graceful graph.
