Over the last 50 years, many generalizations of “magic” ideas have been applied to graphs. Recently there has been a resurgence of interest in “magic labelings” due to a number of results that have applications to the problem of decomposing graphs into trees. Key features of this second edition include: ·         a new chapter on magic labeling of directed graphs ·         applications of theorems from graph theory and interesting counting arguments ·         new research problems and exercises covering a range of difficulties ·         a fully updated bibliography and index This concise, self-contained exposition is unique in its focus on the theory of magic graphs/labelings. It may serve as a graduate or advanced undergraduate text for courses in mathematics or computer science, and as reference for the researcher UR - http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-0-8176-8391-7 ER -
