dc.description.abstract | The strength of cryptosystem relays on the management of encryption key. The
key should be managed such that it is hard for any intruder to analyze the key. Thus, the
main issue is how to make the relation between plaintext, ciphertext and the key is hidden.
This paper will study the use of super (a, d)-H antimagic total graph in developing
an encryption key to achieve the security. Let H be a simple, connected and undirected
graph. A graph G = (V, E) is said to be a super (a, d)-H-antimagic total graph if there
exist a one-to-one map f : V (G) ∪ E(G) → {1, 2, . . . , |V (G)| + |E(G)|} such that for all
subgraphs isomorphic to H, the total H-weights w(H) =
P
v∈V (H)
f(v) +
P
f(e)
form an arithmetic sequence {a, a + d, a + 2d, ..., a + (s − 1)d}, where a and d are pos-
itive integers and s is the number of all subgraphs isomorphic to H, and f : V (G) →
{1, 2, . . . , |V (G)|}. The resulting super (a, d)-H antimagic total graph can potentially
generates a complex key, thus by using such graph we can get a secure cryptosystem. | en_US |
