Title of TalkStrong Signals: L(d,2,1)-Labeling on Simple Graphs
AbstractAn L(d, 2, 1)-labeling is a simplified model for the channel assignment problem. It is a natural generalization of the widely studied L(2, 1) and L(3, 2, 1)-labeling. An L(d, 2, 1)-labeling of a graph G is a function f from the vertex set V(G) to the set of positive integers such that if the distance between vertices x and y is 1, then |f (x)- f (y)| >= d; if the distance between x and y is 2, then |f (x)- f(y)| >= 2; and if the distance between x and y is 3, then |f (x)- f (y)| >= 1. The L(d, 2, 1)-labeling number k_d(G) of G is the smallest positive integer k_d such that G has an L(d, 2, 1)-labeling with k_d as the maximum label. This talk will present general results for k_d when labeling simple graphs, such as paths, bipartite graphs, and cycles.
