C4-face-magic labeling on a 4x4 Klein bottle grid graph

Abstract

For a graph G = (V, E) embedded in the Klein bottle, let F(G) denote the set of faces of G. A C_4-face-magic Klein bottle labeling on G is a bijection f: V(G) to {1, 2,..., |V(G)|} such that for any F in F(G) with F isomorphic C_4, the sum of all the vertex labelings along C_4 is a constant. We say that a C_4-face-magic labeling X={x_{i,j} : 0< i,j< 5} on the 4x4 Klein bottle grid graph is horizontally (or vertically) pairwise balanced if x_{2i-1,j} + x_{2i,j}=17 for 0< i <3 and 0< j \le <5 (or x_{i,2j-1} + x_{i2,j}=17 for 0< i <5 and 0< j <3). We show that the 4x4 Klein bottle grid graph has 192 C_4-face-magic labelings up to symmetries on a Klein bottle. We classify these labelings into two categories depending on whether a C_4-face-magic label preserving permutation of the labeling is either horizontally pairwise balanced or vertically pairwise balanced. These results extend known results on C_4-face-magic labelings on an mxn Klein bottle grid graph.
