The Absolute

A graceful labeling of a graph with q edges is a labeling of its vertices using the integers in [0, q], such that no two vertices are assigned the same label and each edge is uniquely identified by the absolute difference between the labels of its endpoints. The well known Graceful Tree Conjecture (GTC) states that all trees are graceful, and it remains open. It was proved in 1999 by Broersma and Hoede that there is an equivalent conjecture for GTC stating that all trees containing a perfect matching are strongly graceful (graceful with an extra condition). In this paper we extend the above result by showing that there exist infinitely many equivalent versions of the GTC. Moreover we verify these infinitely many equivalent conjectures of GTC for trees of diameter at most 7. Among others we are also able to identify new graceful trees and in particular generalize the ?-construction of Stanton-Zarnke (and later Koh- Rogers-Tan) for building graceful trees through two smaller given graceful trees.

Laplace's Method

Let G be a fixed connected multigraph with no loops. A random n-lift of G is obtained by replacing each vertex of G by a set of n vertices (where these sets are pairwise disjoint) and replacing each edge by a randomly chosen perfect matching between the n-sets corresponding to the endpoints of the edge. Let XG be the number of perfect matchings in a random lift of G. We study the distribution of XG in the limit as n tends to infinity, using the small subgraph conditioning method.We present several results including an asymptotic formula for the expectation of XG when G is d-regular, d ≥ 3. The interaction of perfect matchings with short cycles in random lifts of regular multigraphs is also analysed. Partial calculations are performed for the second moment of XG, with full details given for two example multigraphs, including the complete graph K4.To assist in our calculations we provide a theorem for estimating a summation over multiple dimensions using Laplace's method. This result is phrased as a summation over lattice points, and may prove useful in future applications.
