In a graph A, for each two arbitrary vertices g, h with d(g,h)=2,|MAg2h|=mAg2h is introduced the number of edges of A that are closer to g than to h. We say A is a 2-edge distance-balanced graph if we have mAg2h=mAh2g. In this article, we…

For every pair of vertices u and v with d(u; v) = n, Wun G v denotes the set of all vertices of G that are closer to u than to v. In this paper, we introduce quasi-({\lambda}; n)-distance-balanced graphs and then study some properties of…

The metric dimension, $\dim(G)$, of a graph $G$ is a graph parameter motivated by robot navigation that has been studied extensively. Let $G$ be a graph with vertex set $V(G)$, and let $d(x,y)$ denote the length of a shortest $x-y$ path in…

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…

For a simple graph $G$, the $3$-distance graph, $D_3(G)$, is a graph with the vertex set $V(G)$ and two vertices are adjacent if and only if their distance is $3$ in the graph $G$. For a connected graph $G$, we provide some conditions for…

The metric dimension of a graph $G$ is defined as the minimum number of vertices in a subset $S\subset V(G)$ such that all other vertices are uniquely determined by their distances to the vertices in $S$, and is denoted by $\dim(G)$. In…

Let $X$ be a finite, simple graph with vertex set $V(X)$. The $2$-distance graph $T_2(X)$ of $X$ is the graph with the same vertex set as $X$ and two vertices are adjacent if and only if their distance in $X$ is exactly $2$. A graph $G$ is…

In a graph $G$, a geodesic between two vertices $x$ and $y$ is a shortest path connecting $x$ to $y$. A subset $S$ of the vertices of $G$ is in general position if no vertex of $S$ lies on any geodesic between two other vertices of $S$. The…

We consider a distance-regular graph $\Gamma=(X, \mathcal R)$ called the bilinear forms graph $H_q(D,N-D)$; we assume $N>2D\geq 6$ and $q \not=2$. We show that $\Gamma$ satisfies the following strengthened version of the balanced set…

Defining distances over finite fields formally by $||x-y||:=(x_1-y_1)^2+\cdots + (x_d-y_d)^2$ for $x,y\in \mathbb{F}_q^d$, distance problems naturally arise in analogy to those studied by Erd\H{o}s and Falconer in Euclidean space. Given a…
