Abstract


A tree T(V, E) is graceful if there exists an injective function f from the vertex set V(T) into the set {0, 1, 2, ..., ∣V∣ − 1} which induces a bijective function fʹ from the edge set E(T) onto the set {1, 2, ..., ∣E∣}, with fʹ(uv) = ∣f(u) − f(v)∣ for every edge {u, v} ∈ E. Motivated by the conjecture of Alexander Rosa (see) saying that all trees are graceful, a lot of works have addressed gracefulness of some trees. In this paper we show that some uniform trees are graceful. This results will extend the list of graceful trees.
