Let $G = (V,w)$ be a weighted undirected graph with $m$ edges. The cut dimension of $G$ is the dimension of the span of the characteristic vectors of the minimum cuts of $G$, viewed as vectors in $\{0,1\}^m$. For every $n \ge 2$ we show…

Given a graph $G$ and a subset of vertices $S = \{w_1, \ldots, w_t\} \subseteq V(G)$, the multiset representation of a vertex $u\in V(G)$ with respect to $S$ is the multiset $m(u|S) = \{| d_G(u, w_1), \ldots, d_G(u, w_t) |\}$. A subset of…

An identifying code is a subset of vertices of a graph such that each vertex is uniquely determined by its neighbourhood within the identifying code. If $\M(G)$ denotes the minimum size of an identifying code of a graph $G$, it was…

Let $G$ be a graph with vertex set $V$, and let $k$ be a positive integer. A set $D \subseteq V$ is a \emph{distance-$k$ dominating set} of $G$ if, for each vertex $u \in V-D$, there exists a vertex $w\in D$ such that $d(u,w) \le k$, where…

A vertex $w$ resolves two vertices $u$ and $v$ in a directed graph $G$ if the distance from $w$ to $u$ is different to the distance from $w$ to $v$. A set of vertices $R$ is a resolving set for a directed graph $G$ if for every pair of…

We revisit the problem of fault-tolerant (FT) distance preservers, when failure events in the network admit a form of correlation modeled as color faults. FT distance preservers are sparse subgraphs that preserve distances between specified…

Given a connected graph $G$, a vertex $w\in V(G)$ strongly resolves two vertices $u,v\in V(G)$ if there exists some shortest $u-w$ path containing $v$ or some shortest $v-w$ path containing $u$. A set $S$ of vertices is a strong metric…
