Stable structure on safe set problems in vertex-weighted graphs
Abstract
Let be a graph, and let be a positive real-valued weight function on . For every subset of , let A non-empty subset is a weighted safe set of if, for every component of the subgraph induced by and every component of , we have whenever there is an edge between and . If the subgraph of induced by a weighted safe set is connected, then the set is called a connected weighted safe set of . The weighted safe number and connected weighted safe number of are the minimum weights among all weighted safe sets and all connected weighted safe sets of , respectively. Note that for every pair , by their definitions. Recently, it was asked which pair satisfies the equality and shown that every weighted cycle satisfies the equality. In this paper, we give a complete list of connected bipartite graphs such that for every weight function on .
