Abstract:

In investigating graph graceful problem that has many applications in the real world, we discovery a new method called the appending-split method. By this new
method we can construct large scale of trees having strongly (k, d)-graceful labellings, and provide the proof for the correctness of constructed (k, d)-graceful trees. Furthermore, such strongly (k, d)-graceful labellings can induce strongly odd-graceful labellings. Our new method can be easily transformed into a good algorithm that may be a theoretical guarantee for applying strongly (k, d)-graceful labellings to network.

Key words: strongly (k, d)-graceful labelling, strongly odd-graceful labelling, perfect matching
