Let $G$ be a finite, connected, undirected, and simple graph and $W$ be a set of vertices in $G$. A representation multiset of a vertex $u$ in $V(G)$ with respect to $W$ is defined as the multiset of distances between $u$ and the vertices…

For a set $S$ of vertices of a graph $G$, a vertex $u$ in $V(G)\setminus S$, and a vertex $v$ in $S$, let ${\rm dist}_{(G,S)}(u,v)$ be the distance of $u$ and $v$ in the graph $G-(S\setminus \{ v\})$. Dankelmann et al. (Domination with…

A set $R \subseteq V(G)$ is a resolving set of a graph $G$ if for all distinct vertices $v,u \in V(G)$ there exists an element $r \in R$ such that $d(r,v) \neq d(r,u)$. The metric dimension $\dim(G)$ of the graph $G$ is the minimum…

Given a graph $G$ and a subset of vertices $S = \{w_1, \ldots, w_t\} \subseteq V(G)$, the multiset representation of a vertex $u\in V(G)$ with respect to $S$ is the multiset $m(u|S) = \{| d_G(u, w_1), \ldots, d_G(u, w_t) |\}$. A subset of…

The metric representation of a vertex $u$ in a connected graph $G$ respect to an ordered vertex subset $W=\{\omega_1, \dots , \omega_n\}\subset V(G)$ is the vector of distances $r(u\vert W)=(d(u,\omega_1), \dots , d(u,\omega_n))$. A vertex…

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a simple graph. A dominating set of $G$ is a subset $S\subseteq V$ such that every vertex not in $S$ is adjacent to at least one vertex in $S$. The cardinality of a smallest dominating set of $G$, denoted by $\gamma(G)$, is…

An $(\alpha,\beta)$-ruling set of a graph $G=(V,E)$ is a set $R\subseteq V$ such that for any node $v\in V$ there is a node $u\in R$ in distance at most $\beta$ from $v$ and such that any two nodes in $R$ are at distance at least $\alpha$…

A set $W$ of vertices of $G$ is said to be a weak total resolving set for $G$ if $W$ is a resolving set for $G$ as well as for each $w\in W$, there is at least one element in $W-\{w\}$ that resolves $w$ and $v$ for every $v\in V(G)- W$.…

We explore a reconfiguration version of the dominating set problem, where a dominating set in a graph $G$ is a set $S$ of vertices such that each vertex is either in $S$ or has a neighbour in $S$. In a reconfiguration problem, the goal is…

A graph $G$ is said to be $d$-distinguishable if there is a labeling of the vertices with $d$ labels so that only the trivial automorphism preserves the labels. The smallest such $d$ is the distinguishing number, Dist($G$). A subset of…

A set $D$ of vertices of a graph $G$ is locating if every two distinct vertices outside $D$ have distinct neighbors in $D$; that is, for distinct vertices $u$ and $v$ outside $D$, $N(u) \cap D \neq N(v) \cap D$, where $N(u)$ denotes the…

A set W \subseteq V (G) is called a resolving set, if for each pair of distinct vertices u,v \in V (G) there exists t \in W such that d(u,t) \neq d(v,t), where d(x,y) is the distance between vertices x and y. The cardinality of a minimum…

The online dominating set problem is an online variant of the minimum dominating set problem, which is one of the most important NP-hard problems on graphs. This problem is defined as follows: Given an undirected graph $G = (V, E)$, in…

For an ordered set $W=\{w_1,w_2,...,w_k\}$ of vertices and a vertex $v$ in a connected graph $G$, the ordered $k$-vector $r(v|W):=(d(v,w_1),d(v,w_2),...,d(v,w_k))$ is called the (metric) representation of $v$ with respect to $W$, where…

A graph $G$ is said to be a `set graph' if it admits an acyclic orientation that is also `extensional', in the sense that the out-neighborhoods of its vertices are pairwise distinct. Equivalently, a set graph is the underlying graph of the…

A dominating set of a graph $G$ is a set $D \subseteq V(G)$ such that every vertex in $V(G) \setminus D$ is adjacent to at least one vertex in $D$. A set $L\subseteq V(G)$ is a locating set of $G$ if every vertex in $V(G) \setminus L$ has…

An open-dominating set S for a graph G is a subset of vertices where every vertex has a neighbor in S. An open-locating-dominating set S for a graph G is an open-dominating set such that each pair of distinct vertices in G have distinct set…

An ordered set $S$ of vertices of a graph $G$ is a resolving set for $G$ if every vertex is uniquely determined by its vector of distances to the vertices in $S$. The metric dimension of G is the minimum cardinality of a resolving set. In…

A (simple) hypergraph is a family H of pairwise incomparable sets of a finite set. We say that a hypergraph H is a domination hypergraph if there is at least a graph G such that the collection of minimal dominating sets of G is equal to H.…
