Topological Graphic Passwords And Their Matchings Towards Cryptography (1808.03324v3)

Abstract: Graphical passwords (GPWs) are convenient for mobile equipments with touch screen. Topological graphic passwords (Topsnut-gpws) can be saved in computer by classical matrices and run quickly than the existing GPWs. We research Topsnut-gpws by the matching of view, since they have many advantages. We discuss: configuration matching partition, coloring/labelling matching partition, set matching partition, matching chain, etc. And, we introduce new graph labellings for enriching Topsnut-matchings and show that these labellings can be realized for trees or spanning trees of networks. In theoretical works we explore Graph Labelling Analysis, and show that every graph admits our extremal labellings and set-type labellings in graph theory. Many of the graph labellings mentioned are related with problems of set matching partitions to number theory, and yield new objects and new problems to graph theory.
