Vertex-Magic Total Labeling On G-Sun Graphs, Melissa Mejia
Vertex-Magic Total Labeling On G-Sun Graphs, Melissa Mejia
Honors Program Theses and Projects
Graph labeling is an immense area of research in mathematics, specifically graph theory. There are many types of graph labelings such as harmonious, magic, and lucky labelings. This paper will focus on magic labelings. Graph theorists are particularly interested in magic labelings because of a simple problem regarding tree graphs introduced in the 1990’s. The problem is still unsolved after almost thirty years. Researchers have studied magic labelings on other graphs in addition to tree graphs. In this paper we will consider vertex-magic labelings on G-sun graphs. We will give vertex-magic total labelings for ladder sun graphs and complete bipartite …
Phylogenetic Networks And Functions That Relate Them, Drew Scalzo
Phylogenetic Networks And Functions That Relate Them, Drew Scalzo
Williams Honors College, Honors Research Projects
Phylogenetic Networks are defined to be simple connected graphs with exactly n labeled nodes of degree one, called leaves, and where all other unlabeled nodes have a degree of at least three. These structures assist us with analyzing ancestral history, and its close relative - phylogenetic trees - garner the same visualization, but without the graph being forced to be connected. In this paper, we examine the various characteristics of Phylogenetic Networks and functions that take these networks as inputs, and convert them to more complex or simpler structures. Furthermore, we look at the nature of functions as they relate …
