A vertex $w$ in a graph $G$ is said to resolve two vertices $u$ and $v$ if $d(w,u)\neq d(w, v)$. A set $W$ of vertices is a resolving set for $G$ if every pair of distinct vertices is resolved by some vertex in $W$. The metric dimension of…

A resolving set for a graph $\Gamma$ is a collection of vertices $S$, chosen so that for each vertex $v$, the list of distances from $v$ to the members of $S$ uniquely specifies $v$. The metric dimension of $\Gamma$ is the smallest size of…

In this paper, we introduce a connection between two classical concepts of graph theory: \; metric dimension and distinguishing number. For a given graph $G$, let ${\rm dim}(G)$ and $D(G)$ represent its metric dimension and distinguishing…

A subset $S$ of vertices of a connected graph $G$ is a distance-equalizer set if for every two distinct vertices $x, y \in V (G) \setminus S$ there is a vertex $w \in S$ such that the distances from $x$ and $y$ to $w$ are the same. The…

For any two distinct vertices $x$ and $y$ of a graph $G$, let $S\{x, y\}$ denote the set of vertices $z$ such that either $x$ lies on a $y-z$ geodesic or $y$ lies on an $x-z$ geodesic. Let $g: V(G) \rightarrow [0,1]$ be a real valued…

A vertex $x$ in a graph $G$ resolves two vertices $u$, $v$ of $G$ if the distance between $u$ and $x$ is not equal to the distance between $v$ and $x$. A function $g$ from the vertex set of $G$ to $[0,1]$ is a resolving function of $G$ if…

We study projective dimension, a graph parameter (denoted by pd$(G)$ for a graph $G$), introduced by (Pudl\'ak, R\"odl 1992), who showed that proving lower bounds for pd$(G_f)$ for bipartite graphs $G_f$ associated with a Boolean function…

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a connected graph and let $d(u,v)$ denote the distance between vertices $u,v \in V$. A metric basis for $G$ is a set $B\subseteq V$ of minimum cardinality such that no two vertices of $G$ have the same distances to all…

A set of vertices $S$ resolves a graph $G$ if every vertex is uniquely determined by its vector of distances to the vertices in $S$. The metric dimension of $G$ is the minimum cardinality of a resolving set of $G$. Let $\{G_1, G_2, \ldots,…

Let $G$ be a connected graph and $W=\{ w_1, w_2, \ldots, w_k \} \subseteq V(G)$ be an ordered set. For every vertex $v$, the metric representation of $v$ with respect to $W$ is an ordered $k$-vector defined as $r(v|W):=(d(v,w_1), d(v,w_2),…

A broadcast on a connected graph $G=(V,E)$ is a function $f:V\rightarrow \{0,1,\dots,\operatorname{diam}(G)\}$ such that $f(v)\leq e(v)$ (the eccentricity of $v$) for all $v\in V$ if $|V|\geq2$, and $f(v)=1$ if $V=\{v\}$. The cost of $f$ is…

A fractional matching of $G$ is a function $f: E(G)\to [0,1]$ such that $\sum_{e\in E_G(v_i)}f(e)\le 1$ for any $v_i\in V(G)$, where $E_G(v_i)=\{e: e\in E(G) \ \textrm{and}\ e \ \textrm{is incident with} \ v_i\}$. Let $\alpha_f(G)$ denote…
