Abstract
We call a multigraph irregular if it has pairwise distinct vertex degrees. No non-trivial (simple) graph is thus irregular. The irregularity strength of a graph G, s(G), is a specific measure of the “level of irregularity” of G. It might be defined as the least k such that one may obtain an irregular multigraph of G by multiplying any selected edges of G, each into at most k its copies. In other words, s(G) is the least k admitting a {1,2, . . . , k}-weighting of the edges of G assuring distinct weighted degrees for all the vertices, where the weighted degree of a vertex is the sum of its incident weights. The most well-known open problem concerning this graph invariantis the conjecture posed in 1987 by Faudree and Lehel that there exists an absolute constant C such that s(G)≤n/d+C for each d-regular graph G with n vertices and d≥2, whereas a straightforward counting argument implies that s(G)≥n/d+(d−1)/d. Until very recently this conjecture had remained widely open. We shall discuss recent results confirming it asymptotically, up to a lower order term. If time permits we shall also mention a few related problems, such as the 1–2–3 Conjecture or the concept ofirregular subgraphs, introduced recently by Alon and Wei, and progress in research concerning these.
