Popis: Let G be a 2-regular graph with 2 m + 1 vertices and assume that G has a strong vertex-magic total labeling. It is shown that the four graphs G ∪ 2 m C 3 , G ∪ ( 2 m + 2 ) C 3 , G ∪ m C 8 and G ∪ ( m + 1 ) C 8 also have a strong vertex-magic total labeling. These theorems follow from a new use of carefully prescribed Kotzig arrays. To illustrate the power of this technique, we show how just three of these arrays, combined with known labelings for smaller 2-regular graphs, immediately provide strong vertex-magic total labelings for 68 different 2-regular graphs of order 49.
