Abstract:
In 1966, Rosa introduced, among others, α- and β-labelings
as tools to solve the isomorphic decomposition problem of the complete
graph. Ten years later, Sheppard calculated the number of α- and
β-labeled graphs with n edges. In this paper we use an extended
version of the adjacency matrix of a graph to determine the number of
gracefully labeled graphs with n edges; furthermore, we also
calculate the number of them with m vertices for every suitable value
of m. In addition, we use this technique to determine the number of
labeled graphs for other types of labelings as the harmonious,
felicitous, and elegant.
