2-target pebbling number of graphs

Abstract Chung defined the pebbling move of a graph which involves choosing a vertex with at least two pebbles, discarding those two pebbles from that vertex and adding one pebble to a nearby vertex. The 2-target pebbling number of the vertices u , v in graph a G is the least number φ ( G , u , v ) has the characteristic that for every configuration of φ ( G , u , v ) pebbles on G , it is possible to move a pebble to u and v simultaneously by a sequence of pebbling moves. The 2-target pebbling number of graph G , denoted by φ ( G ), is the maximum φ ( G , u , v ) over all pairs of the vertices in G . In this paper, we discuss the 2-target pebbling number for some standard graphs.

Abstract

Abstract Chung defined the pebbling move of a graph which involves choosing a vertex with at least two pebbles, discarding those two pebbles from that vertex and adding one pebble to a nearby vertex. The 2-target pebbling number of the vertices u , v in graph a G is the least number φ ( G , u , v ) has the characteristic that for every configuration of φ ( G , u , v ) pebbles on G , it is possible to move a pebble to u and v simultaneously by a sequence of pebbling moves. The 2-target pebbling number of graph G , denoted by φ ( G ), is the maximum φ ( G , u , v ) over all pairs of the vertices in G . In this paper, we discuss the 2-target pebbling number for some standard graphs.
