Let $A$ be a nontrivial abelian group. A connected simple graph $G = (V, E)$ is $A$-\textbf{antimagic} if there exists an edge labeling $f: E(G) \to A \setminus \{0\}$ such that the induced vertex labeling $f^+: V(G) \to A$, defined by $f^+(v) = \Sigma$ $\{f(u,v): (u, v) \in E(G) \}$, is a one-to-one map. In this paper, we analyze the group-antimagic property for Cartesian products, hexagonal nets and theta graphs.

Let $A$ be a nontrivial abelian group and $A^* = A \setminus \{0\}$. A graph is $A$-magic if there exists an edge labeling $f$ using elements of $A^*$ which induces a constant vertex labeling of the graph. Such a labeling $f$ is called an $A$-magic labeling and the constant value of the induced vertex labeling is called an $A$-magic value. In this paper, we use the Combinatorial Nullstellensatz to show the existence of $\mathbb{Z}_p$-magic labelings (prime $p \geq 3$ ) for various graphs, without having to construct the $\mathbb{Z}_p$-magic labelings. Through many examples, we illustrate the usefulness (and limitations) in applying the Combinatorial Nullstellensatz to the integer-magic labeling problem. Finally, we focus on $\mathbb{Z}_3$-magic labelings and give some results for various classes of graphs.

Let $A$ be a nontrival abelian group. A connected simple graph $G = (V, E)$ is $A$-antimagic if there exists an edge labeling $f: E(G) \to A \setminus \{0\}$ such that the induced vertex labeling $f^+: V(G) \to A$, defined by $f^+(v) = \sum_{uv\in E(G)}f(uv)$, is injective. The integer-antimagic spectrum of a graph $G$ is the set IAM$(G) = \{k\;|\; G \textnormal{ is } \mathbb{Z}_k\textnormal{-antimagic}$ $\textnormal{and } k \geq 2\}$. In this paper, we determine the integer-antimagic spectra for cycles with a chord, paths with a chord, and wheels with a chord.

Let $A$ be a non-trivial abelian group. A connected simple graph $G = (V, E)$ is $A$-\textbf{antimagic} if there exists an edge labeling $f: E(G) \to A \backslash \{0\}$ such that the induced vertex labeling $f^+: V(G) \to A$, defined by $f^+(v) = \Sigma$ $\{f(u,v): (u, v) \in E(G) \}$, is a one-to-one map. The \textit{integer-antimagic spectrum} of a graph $G$ is the set IAM$(G) = \{k: G \textnormal{ is } \mathbb{Z}_k\textnormal{-antimagic and } k \geq 2\}$. In this paper, we analyze the integer-antimagic spectra for various classes of multi-cyclic graphs.

Abstract   Let A be a non-trivial Abelian group. A graph G=(V,E) is A-magic if there exists a labeling f:E→A∖{0} such that the induced vertex set labeling f +:V→A, defined by f +(v)=∑f(uv) where the sum is over all uv∈E, is a constant map. The integer-magic spectrum of a graph G is the set IM(G)={k∈ℕ∣G is ℤ k -magic}. A sun graph is obtained from an n-cycle, by attaching paths to each pair of adjacent vertices in the cycle. In this paper, we investigate the integer-magic spectra of some sun graphs. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
