In the context of algorithm theory, various studies have been conducted on spanning trees with desirable properties. In this paper, we consider the \textsc{Minimum Cover Spanning Tree} problem (MCST for short). Given a graph $G$ and a…
Given an n-vertex graph G=(V,E) and a set R \subseteq {{x,y} | x,y \in V} of requests, we consider to assign a set of edges to each vertex in G so that for every request {u, v} in R the union of the edge sets assigned to u and v contains a…
The threshold-$k$ metric dimension ($\mathrm{Tmd}_k$) of a graph is the minimum number of sensors -- a subset of the vertex set -- needed to uniquely identify any vertex in the graph, solely based on its distances from the sensors, when the…
A vertex subset of a graph is called a distance-$k$ independent set if the distance between any two of its distinct vertices is at least $k + 1$. For all $n,k \geq 1$, we determine the minimum possible number of inclusion-wise maximal…
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…
Let $G$ be a strongly connected directed graph and $u,v,w\in V(G)$ be three vertices. Then $w$ strongly resolves $u$ to $v$ if there is a shortest $u$-$w$-path containing $v$ or a shortest $w$-$v$-path containing $u$. A set $R\subseteq…
A subset $Q = \{q_1, q_2, ..., q_l\}$ of vertices of a connected graph $G$ is a doubly resolving set of $G$ if for any various vertices $x, y \in V(G)$ we have $r(x|Q)-r(y|Q)\neq\lambda I$, where $\lambda$ is an integer, and $I$ indicates…
A vertex subset M of a graph G is a multipacking if for each vertex v, and each positive integer s less than or equal to the diameter of G, v is within distance s of at most s vertices of M. The multipacking number of a graph is the maximum…
We prove that, if $m$ is sufficiently large, every graph on $m+1$ vertices that has a universal vertex and minimum degree at least $\lfloor \frac{2m}{3} \rfloor$ contains each tree $T$ with $m$ edges as a subgraph. Our result confirms, for…
Let ${\rm dim}(G)$ and $D(G)$ respectively denote the metric dimension and the distinguishing number of a graph $G$. It is proved that $D(G) \le {\rm dim}(G)+1$ holds for every connected graph $G$. Among trees, exactly paths and stars…
Let B be a finite collection of geometric (not necessarily convex) bodies in the plane. Clearly, this class of geometric objects naturally generalizes the class of disks, lines, ellipsoids, and even convex polygons. We consider geometric…
Luo, Tian and Wu conjectured in 2022 that for any tree $T$ with bipartition $X$ and $Y$, every $k$-connected bipartite graph $G$ with $\delta(G) \geq k + t$, where $t = \max\{|X|,|Y |\}$, contains a subtree $T' \cong T$ such that $G-V(T')$…
In a graph G, the cardinality of the smallest ordered set of vertices that distinguishes every element of V(G)U E(G) is called the mixed metric dimension of G, and it is denoted by mdim(G). In [12] it was conjectured that for a graph G with…
Nonlocal metric dimension ${\rm dim}_{\rm n\ell}(G)$ of a graph $G$ is introduced as the cardinality of a smallest nonlocal resolving set, that is, a set of vertices which resolves each pair of non-adjacent vertices of $G$. Graphs $G$ with…
Let $G$ be a finite or infinite graph and $m(G)$ the minimum number of vertices moved by the non-identity automorphisms of $G$. We are interested in bounds on the supremum $\Delta(G)$ of the degrees of the vertices of $G$ that assure the…
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…
Given a connected graph $G$, the metric (resp. edge metric) dimension of $G$ is the cardinality of the smallest ordered set of vertices that uniquely identifies every pair of distinct vertices (resp. edges) of $G$ by means of distance…
Motivated by quite recent research involving the relationship between the dimension of a poset and graph-theoretic properties of its cover graph, we show that for every $d\geq 1$, if $P$ is a poset and the dimension of a subposet $B$ of $P$…
Given a set of leaf-labeled trees with identical leaf sets, the well-known "Maximum Agreement SubTree" problem (MAST) consists of finding a subtree homeomorphically included in all input trees and with the largest number of leaves. Its…
The definition of $n$-width of a bounded subset $A$ in a normed linear space $X$ is based on the existence of $n$-dimensional subspaces. Although the concept of an $n$-dimensional subspace is not available for metric trees, in this paper,…
