The connection between the magical coloring of trees

Let $ f $ be a set-ordered edge-magic labeling of a graph $ G $ from $ V(G) $ and $ E(G) $ to $ [0, p-1] $ and $ [1, p-1] $, respectively; it also satisfies the following conditions: $ |f(V(G))| = p $, $ \max f(X) < \min f(Y) $, and $ f(x)+f(y)+f(xy) = C $ for each edge $ xy\in E(G) $. In thi...

Description
Summary:Let $ f $ be a set-ordered edge-magic labeling of a graph $ G $ from $ V(G) $ and $ E(G) $ to $ [0, p-1] $ and $ [1, p-1] $, respectively; it also satisfies the following conditions: $ |f(V(G))| = p $, $ \max f(X) < \min f(Y) $, and $ f(x)+f(y)+f(xy) = C $ for each edge $ xy\in E(G) $. In this paper, we removed the restriction that the labeling of vertices could not be repeated, and presented the concept of magical colorings including edge-magic coloring, edge-difference coloring, felicitous-difference coloring, and graceful-difference coloring. We studied the magical colorings on the tree and proved the existence of four kinds of magical colorings on the tree from a set-ordered edge-magic labeling. Further, we revealed the transformation relationship between these kinds of colorings.
