Graham’s pebbling conjecture on products of many cycles

A pebbling move on a connected graph G consists of removing two pebbles from some vertex and adding one pebble to an adjacent vertex. We define f_t(G) as the smallest number such that whenever f_t(G) pebbles are on G, we can move t pebbles to any specified, but arbitrary vertex. Graham conjectured that f₁(G×H)≤f₁(G)f₁(H) for any connected G and H. We define the α-pebbling number α(G) and prove that α(C_pj×?×C_p2×C_p1×G)≤α(C_pj)?α(C_p2)α(C_p1)α(G) when none of the cycles is C₅, and G satisfies one more criterion. We also apply this result with G=C₅×C₅ by showing that C₅×C₅ satisfies Chung’s two-pebbling property, and establishing bounds for f_t(C₅×C₅).
