In this paper, we present a complete characterization of mutual-visibility sets in trees. It is shown that a subset $S$ is a mutual-visibility set of a tree $T$ if and only if it coincides with the set of leaves of the Steiner subtree…
We study unit disk visibility graphs, where the visibility relation between a pair of geometric entities is defined by not only obstacles, but also the distance between them. That is, two entities are not mutually visible if they are too…
A $t$-bar visibility representation of a graph assigns each vertex up to $t$ horizontal bars in the plane so that two vertices are adjacent if and only if some bar for one vertex can see some bar for the other via an unobstructed vertical…
Given a graph $G$, a subset $M\subseteq V(G)$ is a mutual-visibility (MV) set if for every $u,v\in M$, there exists a $u,v$-geodesic whose internal vertices are not in $M$. We investigate proper vertex colorings of graphs whose color…
A point visibility graph is a graph induced by a set of points in the plane where the vertices of the graph represent the points in the point set and two vertices are adjacent if and only if no other point from the point set lies on the…
In the geodetic convexity, a set of vertices $S$ of a graph $G$ is $\textit{convex}$ if all vertices belonging to any shortest path between two vertices of $S$ lie in $S$. The cardinality $con(G)$ of a maximum proper convex set $S$ of $G$…
The outer multiset dimension ${\rm dim}_{\rm ms}(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the cardinality of a smallest set of vertices that uniquely recognize all the vertices outside this set by using multisets of distances to the set. It is proved that…
Let $G$ be a graph and let $S\subseteq V(G)$. The set $S$ is a double outer-independent dominating set of $G$ if $|N[v]\cap D|\geq2$, for all $v\in V(G)$, and $V(G)\setminus S$ is independent. Similarly, $S$ is a $2$-outer-independent…
The strong geodetic problem is a recent variation of the geodetic problem. For a graph $G$, its strong geodetic number ${\rm sg}(G)$ is the cardinality of a smallest vertex subset $S$, such that each vertex of $G$ lies on a fixed shortest…
We consider the problem of determining if a pair of undirected graphs $\langle G_\mathsf{V}, G_\mathsf{H} \rangle$, which share the same vertex set, has a representation using opaque geometric shapes for vertices, and vertical/horizontal…
The diameter of a graph is the maximum distance among all pairs of vertices. Thus a graph $G$ has diameter $d$ if any two vertices are at distance at most $d$ and there are two vertices at distance $d$. We are interested in studying the…
A recent variation of the classical geodetic problem, the strong geodetic problem, is defined as follows. If $G$ is a graph, then ${\rm sg}(G)$ is the cardinality of a smallest vertex subset $S$, such that one can assign a fixed geodesic to…
A vertex $v\in V(G)$ is said to distinguish two vertices $x,y\in V(G)$ of a nontrivial connected graph $G$ if the distance from $v$ to $x$ is different from the distance from $v$ to $y$. A set $S\subset V(G)$ is a local metric generator for…
Visibility representation of digraphs was introduced by Axenovich, Beveridge, Hutch\-inson, and West (\emph{SIAM J. Discrete Math.} {\bf 27}(3) (2013) 1429--1449) as a natural generalization of $t$-bar visibility representation of…
Given a connected graph $G$, the equidistant dimension of $G$ represents the cardinality of the smallest set of vertices $S$ of $G$ such that for any two vertices $x,y\notin S$ there is at least one vertex in $S$ equidistant to both $x,y$…
Obstacle representations of graphs have been investigated quite intensely over the last few years. We focus on graphs that can be represented by a single obstacle. Given a (topologically open) polygon $C$ and a finite set $P$ of points in…
Some numerical characteristics of bipartite graphs in relation to the problem of finding all disjoint pairs of S-permutation matrices in the general $n^2 \times n^2$ case are discussed in this paper. All bipartite graphs of the type $g=<R_g…
A set S of vertices in a graph G resolves 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. This paper studies the metric…
A set of vertices $W$ in a graph $G$ is called resolving if for any two distinct $x,y\in V(G)$, there is $v\in W$ such that ${\rm dist}_G(v,x)\neq{\rm dist}_G(v,y)$, where ${\rm dist}_G(u,v)$ denotes the length of a shortest path between…
Given a set of nonempty subsets of some universal set, their intersection graph is defined as the graph with one vertex for each set and two vertices are adjacent precisely when their representing sets have non-empty intersection. Sometimes…
