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 study the edge-identifying code problem, i.e. the identifying code…
The average distance of a vertex $v$ of a connected graph $G$ is the arithmetic mean of the distances from $v$ to all other vertices of $G$. The proximity $\pi(G)$ and the remoteness $\rho(G)$ of $G$ are the minimum and the maximum of the…
For a connected $n$-vertex graph $G$ and a set $\mathcal{F}$ of graphs, let $\iota(G,\mathcal{F})$ denote the size of a smallest set $D$ of vertices of $G$ such that the graph obtained from $G$ by deleting the closed neighbourhood of $D$…
We introduce the notion of watching systems in graphs, which is a generalization of that of identifying codes. We give some basic properties of watching systems, an upper bound on the minimum size of a watching system, and results on the…
An edge subset \( S \subseteq E(G) \) is called a 3-restricted edge-cut if $G-S$ is disconnected and each component of \( G - S \) contains at least three vertices. The 3-restricted edge-connectivity of a graph \( G \), denoted by \(…
The metric dimension of a graph is the smallest number of nodes required to identify all other nodes based on shortest path distances uniquely. Applications of metric dimension include discovering the source of a spread in a network,…
Edges in real-world graphs are typically formed by a variety of factors and carry diverse relation semantics. For example, connections in a social network could indicate friendship, being colleagues, or living in the same neighborhood.…
For a graph $G$ with vertex set $V_{G}$ and edge set $E_{G}$, the symmetric division deg index is defined as $SDD(G)=\sum\limits_{uv\in E_{G}}(\frac{d_{u}}{d_{v}}+\frac{d_{v}}{d_{u}})$, where $d_{u}$ denotes the degree of vertex $u$ in $G$.…
An identifying code $C$ of a graph $G$ is a dominating set of $G$ such that any two distinct vertices of $G$ have distinct closed neighbourhoods within $C$. The smallest size of an identifying code of $G$ is denoted $\gamma^{\text{ID}}(G)$.…
As a natural variant of domination in graphs, Dankelmann et al. [Domination with exponential decay, Discrete Math. 309 (2009) 5877-5883] introduce exponential domination, where vertices are considered to have some dominating power that…
In this paper, we address problems related to parameters concerning edge mappings of graphs. The quantity $h(n,G)$ is defined to be the maximum number of edges in an $n$-vertex graph $H$ such that there exists a mapping $f: E(H)\rightarrow…
Given a set of vertices $S=\{v_1,v_2,...,v_k\}$ of a connected graph $G$, the metric representation of a vertex $v$ of $G$ with respect to $S$ is the vector $r(v|S)=(d(v,v_1),d(v,v_2),...,d(v,v_k))$, where $d(v,v_i)$, $i\in \{1,...,k\}$…
For a given graph $G$ and a subset of vertices $S$, a \emph{distance preserver} is a subgraph of $G$ that preserves shortest paths between the vertices of $S$. We distinguish between a \emph{subsetwise} distance preserver, which preserves…
Let $G=(V,E)$ be a connected simple graph. The distance $d(u,v)$ between vertices $u$ and $v$ from $V$ is the number of edges in the shortest $u-v$ path. If $e=uv \in E$ is an edge in $G$ than distance $d(w,e)$ where $w$ is some vertex in…
We introduce and study the pinnacle sets of a simple graph $G$ with $n$ vertices. Given a bijective vertex labeling $\lambda\,:\,V(G)\rightarrow [n]$, the label $\lambda(v)$ of vertex $v$ is a pinnacle of $(G, \lambda)$ if…
In signed networks, each edge is labeled as either positive or negative. The edge sign captures the polarity of a relationship. Balance of signed networks is a well-studied property in graph theory. In a balanced (sub)graph, the vertices…
The interaction between local traits and global frameworks of mathematical objects has long endured as a central theme in various mathematical domains. A graph \(G\) is referred to as locally linear provided that the subgraph induced by the…
In a graph G, the cardinality of the smallest ordered set of vertices that distinguishes every element of V (G) (resp. E(G)) is called the vertex (resp. edge) metric dimension of G. In [16] it was shown that both vertex and edge metric…
For an integer $k \ge 1$, a (distance) $k$-dominating set of a connected graph $G$ is a set $S$ of vertices of $G$ such that every vertex of $V(G) \setminus S$ is at distance at most~$k$ from some vertex of $S$. The $k$-domination number,…
Let $G=(V,E)$ be a graph. For an edge $e=xy\in E$, the closed neighbourhood of $e$, denoted by $N_G[e]$ or $N_G[xy]$, is the set $N_G[x]\cup N_G[y]$. A vertex set $L\subseteq V$ is liar's vertex-edge dominating set of a graph $G=(V,E)$ if…
