Cybernetics and Systems Analysis Aims and scope

Abstract

We have formalized the definition of graph labeling in terms of combinatorial configurations. We have investigated the connection between edge and vertex (a, d)–distance antimagic labelings with such well-known configurations as separating systems and magic rectangle sets. We have obtained a solution to the problem of construction of indicated labelings for some types of graphs and certain values of a and d.
