Abstract

Motivated by Kotzig and Rosa’s concept of edge magic deficiency, Figueroa-Centeno, Ichishima, and Muntaner-Batle defined a similar concept for super edge magic total labelings. The super edge magic deficiency of a graph \(G\), which is denoted by \(\mu_s(G)\), is the minimum nonnegative integer \(n\) \(+\infty\) if there exists no such \(n\). In this paper, we study the super edge magic deficiency of kite graphs.
