In this paper, we study the metric dimension problem in maximal outerplanar graphs. Concretely, if $\beta (G)$ is the metric dimension of a maximal outerplanar graph $G$ of order $n$, we prove that $2\le \beta (G) \le \lceil…

The metric dimension of a graph is the least number of vertices in a set with the property that the list of distances from any vertex to those in the set uniquely identifies that vertex. Bailey and Meagher obtained an upper bound on the…

The metric dimension of a graph $G$ is the size of a smallest subset $L \subseteq V(G)$ such that for any $x,y \in V(G)$ with $x\not= y$ there is a $z \in L$ such that the graph distance between $x$ and $z$ differs from the graph distance…

The metric dimension of a graph is the minimum size of a set of vertices such that each vertex is uniquely determined by the distances to the vertices of that set. Our aim is to upper-bound the order $n$ of a graph in terms of its diameter…

Let $G$ be a graph, and let $u$, $v$, and $w$ be vertices of $G$. If the distance between $u$ and $w$ does not equal the distance between $v$ and $w$, then $w$ is said to resolve $u$ and $v$. The metric dimension of $G$, denoted $\beta(G)$,…
