For a connected graph G with a distribution of p pebbles on it, a pebbling move involves the removal of two pebbles from a vertex and an addition of one pebble to an adjacent vertex. The cover pebbling number γ(G) is the minimum number of pebbles required to place one pebble on each vertex of the graph G after a sequence of pebbling moves, regardless of the initial configuration of the pebbles. It is known that the problem of computing the cover pebbling number is NP-complete [7]. In this paper we compute the cover pebbling number of Comb, Friendship and Helm graphs.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
