In the Metric Dimension problem, one asks for a minimum-size set $R$ of vertices such that for any pair of vertices of the graph, there is a vertex from $R$ whose two distances to the vertices of the pair are distinct. This problem has…

A bipartite graph $G=(A,B,E)$ is ${\cal H}$-convex, for some family of graphs ${\cal H}$, if there exists a graph $H\in {\cal H}$ with $V(H)=A$ such that the set of neighbours in $A$ of each $b\in B$ induces a connected subgraph of $H$.…
