Graham's pebbling conjecture on Cartesian product of the middle graphs of even cycles

A pebbling move on a graph $G$ consists of taking two pebbles off one vertex and placing one on an adjacent vertex. The pebbling number of a graph $G$, denoted by $f(G)$, is the least integer $n$ such that, however $n$ pebbles are located on the vertices of $G$, we can move one pebble to any vertex by a sequence of pebbling moves. Let $M(G)$ be the middle graph of $G$. For any connected graphs $G$ and $H$, Graham conjectured that $f(G\times H)\leq f(G)f(H)$. In this paper, we give the pebbling number of some graphs and prove that Graham's conjecture holds for the middle graphs of some even cycles.

Pebbling on $C_{4k+3}\times G$ and $M(C_{2n})\times G$

The pebbling number of a graph $G$, $f(G)$, is the least $p$ such that, however $p$ pebbles are placed on the vertices of $G$, we can move a pebble to any vertex by a sequence of moves, each move taking two pebbles off one vertex and placing one on an adjacent vertex. It is conjectured that for all graphs $G$ and $H$, $f(G\times H)\leq f(G)f(H)$. If the graph $G$ satisfies the odd two-pebbling property, we will prove that $f(C_{4k+3}\times G)\leq f(C_{4k+3})f(G)$ and $f(M(C_{2n})\times G)\leq f(M(C_{2n}))f(G)$, where $C_{4k+3}$ is the odd cycle of order $4k+3$ and $M(C_{2n})$ is the middle graph of the even cycle $C_{2n}$.

The critical group of $K_m\vee P_n$ and $P_m\vee P_n$

Let $G_1\sq G_2$ denote the graph obtained from $G_1+G_2$ by adding new edges from each vertex of $G_1$ to every vertex of $G_2$. In this paper, the critical groups of the graphs $K_m\sq P_n$$(n\geq4)$ and $P_m\sq P_n$$(m\geq4,n\geq5)$ are determined.
