On Edge Dimension of a Graph

Combinatorics 2017-04-12 v2

Abstract

Given a connected graph G(V,E)G(V, E), the edge dimension, denoted edim(G)\mathrm{edim}(G), is the least size of a set SVS \subseteq V that distinguishes every pair of edges of GG, in the sense that the edges have pairwise distinct tuples of distances to the vertices of SS. The notation was introduced by Kelenc, Tratnik, and Yero, and in their paper, they asked several questions about properties of edim\mathrm{edim}. In this article we answer two of these questions: we classify the graphs for which edim(G)=n1\mathrm{edim}(G) = n-1 and show that edim(G)dim(G)\frac{\mathrm{edim}(G)}{\dim(G)} isn't bounded from above (here dim(G)\dim(G) is the standard metric dimension of GG). We also compute edim(GPm)\mathrm{edim}(G\Box P_m) and edim(G+K1)\mathrm{edim}(G + K_1).
