Computing the hull and interval numbers in the weakly toll convexity
Abstract
A walk of a graph is a \textit{weakly toll walk} if , implies , and implies . The {\em weakly toll interval} of a set , denoted by , is formed by and the vertices belonging to some weakly toll walk between two vertices of . Set is {\it weakly toll convex} if . The {\em weakly toll convex hull} of , denote by , is the minimum weakly toll convex set containing . The {\em weakly toll interval number} of is the minimum cardinality of a set such that ; and the {\em weakly toll hull number} of is the minimum cardinality of a set such that . In this work, we show how to compute the weakly toll interval and the weakly toll hull numbers of a graph in polynomial time. In contrast, we show that determining the weakly toll convexity number of a graph (the size of a maximum weakly toll convex set distinct from ) is \NP-hard.
