Theorem (Stanley 1973): For a finite graph𝐺, there exist polynomials 𝑃)(𝑟) and𝑄)(𝑟)such that 𝐻) 𝑟 = 𝑃) 𝑟 + −1 4𝑄)(𝑟).

Theorem (Stanley 1973): If the graph G minusits loops is bipartite, then 𝐻)(𝑟)is a polynomialof 𝑟.

Labeling: of a graph 𝐺 is an assignment 𝐿: 𝐸 → ℤ;<of a nonnegative integer 𝐿 𝑒 to each edge 𝑒 of 𝐺

Magic Labeling:• each edge label 0,1,⋯ , |𝐸| is used

exactly once• the sums of the labels on all edges incident

with a given node are equal to 𝑟

Antimagic Graph Conjecture

Every connected graph except for 𝑘Aadmits an antimagic labeling.

Surprise: still open for trees !

Proved for: • trees without vertices of degree 2• connected graphs with minimum

degree ≥ 𝑐 log |𝑉|• 𝑘 −regular graphs

𝑀J 𝑘 : the number of partially magic𝑘 −labelings of 𝐺over 𝑆

Theorem: 𝑀J 𝑘 is a quasi- polynomial in𝑘with period at most 2.

Theorem: If the graph G minus its loops isbipartite, then 𝑀J(𝑘) is a polynomial in 𝑘.

Partially magic labeling of 𝐺 over 𝑆𝑆 ⊆ 𝑉 𝐺 : is a labeling such that “magic

occurs” just in 𝑆, that is, the sums of the labels on all edges incident with a given node in 𝑆 are equal

Motivation

Quasi-polynomial of period at most 2

Every bipartite graph without a 𝐾A-component admits a weakly antimagic labeling.

Corollary

Birkhoff [1912] introduced the chromatic polynomial 𝜒) 𝑘(the number of proper 𝑘-colorings of a graph) in an attempt to prove the Four Color Theorem: 𝜒) 4 > 0 if 𝐺 is planar.

Our idea: 𝐴) 𝑘 : the number of weakly antimagic k-labelings

• G has a weak antimagic labeling 𝐴) 𝐸 > 0

• 𝐴) 𝑘 = ∑ 𝑐J𝑀J(𝑘)�J⊆]|J|;A

for some integers𝐶J

• Why weakly? The counting function of antimagic𝑘-labelings is in general not a polynomial!
