A (not necessarily proper) vertex coloring of a graph $G$ with color classes $V_1$, $V_2$, $\dots$, $V_k$, is said to be a {\it Fair And Tolerant vertex coloring of $G$ with $k$ colors}, whenever $V_1$, $V_2$, $\dots$, $V_k$ are nonempty…

Zero forcing number has recently become an interesting graph parameter studied in its own right since its introduction by the "AIM Minimum Rank -- Special Graphs Work Group", whereas metric dimension is a well-known graph parameter. We…

Zero forcing is a propagation process on a graph, or digraph, defined in linear algebra to provide a bound for the minimum rank problem. Independently, zero forcing was introduced in physics, computer science and network science, areas…

The strong geodetic problem on a graph $G$ is to determine a smallest set of vertices such that by fixing one shortest path between each pair of its vertices, all vertices of $G$ are covered. To do this as efficiently as possible, strong…

A vertex colouring $f:V(G)\to C$ of a graph $G$ is complete if for any $c_1,c_2\in C$ with $c_1\ne c_2$ there are in $G$ adjacent vertices $v_1,v_2$ such that $f(v_1)=c_1$ and $f(v_2)=c_2$. The achromatic number of $G$ is the maximum number…

A well-studied coloring problem is to assign colors to the edges of a graph $G$ so that, for every pair of vertices, all edges of at least one shortest path between them receive different colors. The minimum number of colors necessary in…

The forcing number of a perfect matching $M$ in a graph $G$ is the smallest number of edges inside $M$ that can not be contained in other perfect matchings. The anti-forcing number of $M$ is the smallest number of edges outside $M$ whose…

Let $G$ be a graph with vertex set $V$. A set $S \subseteq V$ is a \emph{strong resolving set} of $G$ if, for distinct $x,y\in V$, there exists $z\in S$ such that either $x$ lies on a $y-z$ geodesic or $y$ lies on an $x-z$ geodesic in $G$.…

Hopping forcing is a single player combinatorial game in which the player is presented a graph on $n$ vertices, some of which are initially blue with the remaining vertices being white. In each round $t$, a blue vertex $v$ with all…

Zero forcing is a graph coloring process that was defined as a tool for bounding the minimum rank and maximum nullity of a graph. It has also been used for studying control of quantum systems and monitoring electrical power networks. One of…

The (disjoint) fort number and fractional zero forcing number are introduced and related to existing parameters including the (standard) zero forcing number. The fort hypergraph is introduced and hypergraph results on transversals and…

Several researchers have recently explored various graph parameters that can or cannot be characterized by the spectrum of a matrix associated with a graph. In this paper we show that several NP-hard zero forcing numbers are not…

Let $G$ be a connected graph. 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…

Power domination is a two-step observation process that is used to monitor power networks and can be viewed as a combination of domination and zero forcing. Given a graph $G$, a subset $S\subseteq V(G)$ that can observe all vertices of $G$…

A fixing set $\mathcal{F}$ of a graph $G$ is a set of those vertices of the graph $G$ which when assigned distinct labels removes all the automorphisms from the graph except the trivial one. The fixing number of a graph $G$, denoted by…

A strong edge-coloring of a graph $G$ is an edge-coloring such that any two edges of distance at most two receive distinct colors. The minimum number of colors we need in order to give $G$ a strong edge-coloring is called the strong…

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a graph. A subset $D\subseteq V$ is a dominating set if every vertex not in $D$ is adjacent to a vertex in $D$. A dominating set $D$ is called a total dominating set if every vertex in $D$ is adjacent to a vertex in $D$.…

The anti-forcing number of a perfect matching $M$ of a graph $G$ is the minimal number of edges not in $M$ whose removal make $M$ as a unique perfect matching of the resulting graph. The anti-forcing spectrum of $G$ is the set of…

Let $G = (V, E)$ be a finite simple undirected graph without $K_2$ components. A bijection $f : E \rightarrow \{1, 2,\cdots, |E|\}$ is called a {\bf local antimagic labeling} if for any two adjacent vertices $u$ and $v$, they have different…

Power domination in graphs arises from the problem of monitoring an electric power system by placing as few measurement devices in the system as possible. A power dominating set of a graph is a set of vertices that observes every vertex in…
