Abstract EN

Graphical password (GPW) is one of various passwords used in information communication.

The QR code, which is widely used in the current world, is one of GPWs.

Topsnut-GPWs are new-type GPWs made by topological structures (also, called graphs) and number theory, but the existing GPWs use pictures/images almost.

We design new Topsnut-GPWs by means of a graph labelling, called odd-elegant labelling.

The new Topsnut-GPWs will be constructed by Topsnut-GPWs having smaller vertex numbers; in other words, they are compound Topsnut-GPWs such that they are more robust to deciphering attacks.

Furthermore, the new Topsnut-GPWs can induce some mathematical problems and conjectures.
