The \emph{zero forcing number}, $Z(G)$, of a graph $G$ is the minimum cardinality of a set $S$ of black vertices (whereas vertices in $V(G)-S$ are colored white) such that $V(G)$ is turned black after finitely many applications of "the…

The metric dimension of a graph is the smallest number of nodes required to identify all other nodes based on shortest path distances uniquely. Applications of metric dimension include discovering the source of a spread in a network,…

The broadcast model is widely used to describe the process of information dissemination from a single node to all nodes within an interconnected network. In this model, a graph represents the network, where vertices correspond to nodes and…

A radio labeling of a graph $G$ is a mapping $\vp : V(G) \rightarrow \{0, 1, 2,...\}$ such that $|\vp(u)-\vp(v)|\geq \diam(G) + 1 - d(u,v)$ for every pair of distinct vertices $u,v$ of $G$, where $\diam(G)$ and $d(u,v)$ are the diameter of…

A line-broadcasting model in a connected graph $G=(V,E)$, $|V|=n$, is a model in which one vertex, called the {\it originator} of the broadcast holds a message that has to be transmitted to all vertices of the graph through placement of a…

The Steiner distance of a graph, introduced by Chartrand, Oellermann, Tian and Zou in 1989, is a natural generalization of the concept of classical graph distance. For a connected graph $G$ of order at least $2$ and $S\subseteq V(G)$, the…

A set of vertices $S$ \emph{resolves} a graph $G$ if every vertex is uniquely determined by its vector of distances to the vertices in $S$. The \emph{metric dimension} of a graph $G$ is the minimum cardinality of a resolving set. In this…

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a connected graph. The distance between two vertices $u,v\in V$, denoted by $d(u, v)$, is the length of a shortest $u-v$ path in $G$. The distance between a vertex $v\in V$ and a subset $P\subset V$ is defined as $min\{d(v,…

For an ordered subset $W = \{w_1, w_2,\dots w_k\}$ of vertices and a vertex $u$ in a connected graph $G$, the representation of $u$ with respect to $W$ is the ordered $k$-tuple $ r(u|W)=(d(v,w_1), d(v,w_2),\dots,$ $d(v,w_k))$, where…

Two vertices $u$ and $v$ of an undirected graph $G$ are strongly resolved by a vertex $w$ if there is a shortest path between $w$ and $u$ containing $v$ or a shortest path between $w$ and $v$ containing $u$. A vertex set $R$ is a strong…

The fractional versions of graph theoretic-invariants multiply the range of applications in scheduling, assignment and operational research problems. In this paper, we introduce the fractional version of local metric dimension of graphs.…

Let $G$ be a connected graph. A vertex $w$ {\em strongly resolves} a pair $u, v$ of vertices of $G$ if there exists some shortest $u-w$ path containing $v$ or some shortest $v-w$ path containing $u$. A set $W$ of vertices is a {\em strong…

Given a connected graph $G$, a vertex $w\in V(G)$ distinguishes two different vertices $u,v$ of $G$ if the distances between $w$ and $u$ and between $w$ and $v$ are different. Moreover, $w$ strongly resolves the pair $u,v$ if there exists…
