We study distance properties of a general class of random directed acyclic graphs (DAGs). In a DAG, many natural notions of distance are possible, for there exists multiple paths between pairs of nodes. The distance of interest for circuits…

Let $G$ be a connected graph with vertex set $V(G)$. The distance, $d_G(u,v)$, between vertices $u$ and $v$ in $G$ is defined as the length of a shortest path between $u$ and $v$ in $G$. The distance matrix of $G$ is the matrix…

Consider a graph $G=(V,E)$ without isolated edges and with maximum degree $\Delta$. Given a colouring $c:E\to\{1,2,\ldots,k\}$, the weighted degree of a vertex $v\in V$ is the sum of its incident colours, i.e., $\sum_{e\ni v}c(e)$. For any…

A vertex $v$ of a connected graph $G$ is said to be a boundary vertex of $G$ if for some other vertex $u$ of $G$, no neighbor of $v$ is further away from $u$ than $v$. The boundary $\partial(G)$ of $G$ is the set of all of its boundary…

Let $G=(V,A)$ be a digraph and $k\ge 1$ an integer. For $u,v\in V$, we say that the vertex $u$ distance $k$-dominate $v$ if the distance from $u$ to $v$ at most $k$. A set $D$ of vertices in $G$ is a distance $k$-dominating set if for each…

In a geometric network G = (S, E), the graph distance between two vertices u, v in S is the length of the shortest path in G connecting u to v. The dilation of G is the maximum factor by which the graph distance of a pair of vertices…
