An identifying code of a graph is a subset of its vertices such that every vertex of the graph is uniquely identified by the set of its neighbours within the code. We show a dichotomy for the size of the smallest identifying code in classes…

An identifying code in a graph is a subset of vertices having a nonempty and distinct intersection with the closed neighborhood of every vertex. We prove that the infimum density of any identifying code in $S_k$ (an infinite strip of $k$…

The Identifying Code (IC) problem seeks a vertex subset whose intersection with every vertex's closed neighborhood is unique, enabling fault detection in multiprocessor systems and practical uses in identity verification, environmental…

For any graph~\(G,\) a set of vertices~\({\cal V}\) is said to be dominating if every vertex of~\(G\) contains at least one node of~\(G\) and separating if each vertex~\(v\) contains a unique neighbour~\(u_v \in {\cal V}\) that is adjacent…

We introduce the notion of locally identifying coloring of a graph. A proper vertex-coloring c of a graph G is said to be locally identifying, if for any adjacent vertices u and v with distinct closed neighborhood, the sets of colors that…

Identifying codes have been introduced in 1998 to model fault-detection in multiprocessor systems. In this paper, we introduce two variations of identifying codes: weak codes and light codes. They correspond to fault-detection by successive…

The concept of identifying codes was introduced by Karpovsky, Chakrabarty and Levitin in 1998. The identifying codes can be applied, for example, to sensor networks. In this paper, we consider as sensors the set Z^2 where one sensor can…

An $r$-identifying code on a graph $G$ is a set $C\subset V(G)$ such that for every vertex in $V(G)$, the intersection of the radius-$r$ closed neighborhood with $C$ is nonempty and unique. On a finite graph, the density of a code is…

Codes are crucial in many areas of applications. Different types of codes are designed to meet specific needs, which makes them more effective and useful. Linear codes are extensively used in data storage systems. Identifying codes are…

Locating-dominating sets and identifying codes are two closely related notions in the area of separating systems. Roughly speaking, they consist in a dominating set of a graph such that every vertex is uniquely identified by its…

In this paper we first analyze the behaviour of the identifying code number under union and join operations in graphs. This study forced us to analyze three new parameters related to identifying codes, dominating sets and total dominating…

In the index coding problem, introduced by Birk and Kol (INFOCOM, 1998), the goal is to broadcast an n bit word to n receivers (one bit per receiver), where the receivers have side information represented by a graph G. The objective is to…

In this paper we study the complexity of the following problems: Given a colored graph X=(V,E,c), compute a minimum cardinality set S of vertices such that no nontrivial automorphism of X fixes all vertices in S. A closely related problem…

This is my PhD thesis which was defended in May 2021. We call an induced cycle of length at least four a hole. The parity of a hole is the parity of its length. Forbidding holes of certain types in a graph has deep structural implications.…

The independence gap of a graph was introduced by Ekim et al. (2018) as a measure of how far a graph is from being well-covered. It is defined as the difference between the maximum and minimum size of a maximal independent set. We…

Gravier et al. investigated the identifying codes of Cartesian product of two graphs. In this paper we consider the identifying codes of lexicographic product G[H] of a connected graph G and an arbitrary graph H, and obtain the minimum…

A domination-based identification problem on a graph $G$ is one where the objective is to choose a subset $C$ of the vertex set of $G$ such that $C$ has both, a domination property, that is, $C$ is either a dominating or a total-dominating…

Color refinement is a classical technique used to show that two given graphs G and H are non-isomorphic; it is very efficient, although it does not succeed on all graphs. We call a graph G amenable to color refinement if it succeeds in…

For a graph, $G$, and a vertex $v \in V(G)$, let $N[v]$ be the set of vertices adjacent to and including $v$. A set $D \subseteq V(G)$ is a vertex identifying code if for any two distinct vertices $v_1, v_2 \in V(G)$, the vertex sets…
