A vertex subset $S$ of a graph $G$ is a general position set of $G$ if no vertex of $S$ lies on a geodesic between two other vertices of $S$. The cardinality of a largest general position set of $G$ is the general position number…

The general position problem is to find the cardinality of a largest vertex subset S such that no triple of vertices of S lie on a common geodesic. For a connected graph G, the cardinality of S is denoted by gp(G) and called gp-number (or…

A set of vertices of a graph is said to be in general position if no three vertices from the set lie on a common geodesic. Recently Klav\v{z}ar, Rall and Yero generalized this notion by defining a set of vertices to be in general…

Given a graph $G$, the (graph theory) general position problem is to find the maximum number of vertices such that no three vertices lie on a common geodesic. This graph invariant is called the general position number (gp-number for short)…

A subset $S$ of vertices of a graph $G$ is a \emph{general position set} if no shortest path in $G$ contains three or more vertices of $S$. In this paper, we generalise a problem of M. Gardner to graph theory by introducing the \emph{lower…

The edge geodesic cover problem of a graph $G$ is to find a smallest number of geodesics that cover the edge set of $G$. The edge $k$-general position problem is introduced as the problem to find a largest set $S$ of edges of $G$ such that…

A subset $R\subseteq V(G)$ of a graph $G$ is a general position set if any triple set $R_0$ of $R$ is non-geodesic in $G$, that is, no vertex of $R_0$ lies on any geodesic between the other two vertices of $R_0$ in $G$. Let $\mathcal{R}$ be…

Given a graph $G$, the general position problem is to find a largest set $S$ of vertices of $G$ such that no three vertices of $S$ lie on a common geodesic. Such a set is called a ${\rm gp}$-$set$ of $G$ and its cardinality is the ${\rm…

The general position number ${\rm gp}(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the cardinality of a largest set of vertices $S$ such that no element of $S$ lies on a geodesic between two other elements of $S$. The complementary prism $G\overline{G}$ of $G$ is…

Let $X$ be a vertex subset of a graph $G$. Then $u, v\in V(G)$ are $X$-positionable if $V(P)\cap X \subseteq \{u,v\}$ holds for any shortest $u,v$-path $P$. If each two vertices from $X$ are $X$-positionable, then $X$ is a general position…

Let $G$ be a graph. The Steiner distance of $W\subseteq V(G)$ is the minimum size of a connected subgraph of $G$ containing $W$. Such a subgraph is necessarily a tree called a Steiner $W$-tree. The set $A\subseteq V(G)$ is a $k$-Steiner…

Let $G$ be a graph. Assume that to each vertex of a set of vertices $S\subseteq V(G)$ a robot is assigned. At each stage one robot can move to a neighbouring vertex. Then $S$ is a mobile general position set of $G$ if there exists a…

If $G$ is a graph, then $X\subseteq V(G)$ is a general position set if for every two vertices $v,u\in X$ and every shortest $(u,v)$-path $P$, it holds that no inner vertex of $P$ lies in $X$. In this note we propose three algorithms to…

The general position number ${\rm gp}(G)$ of a connected graph $G$ is the cardinality of a largest set $S$ of vertices such that no three distinct vertices from $S$ lie on a common geodesic; such sets are refereed to as gp-sets of $G$. The…

A subset of vertices of a graph $G$ is a general position set if no triple of vertices from the set lie on a common shortest path in $G$. In this paper we introduce the general position polynomial as $\sum_{i \geq 0} a_i x^i$, where $a_i$…
