Solis Graphs and Uniquely Metric Basis Graphs

The metric dimension and girth of graphs

A set $Wsubseteq V(G)$ is called a resolving set for $G$, if for each two distinct vertices $u,vin V(G)$ there exists $win W$ such that $d(u,w)neq d(v,w)$, where $d(x,y)$ is the distance between the vertices $x$ and $y$. The minimum cardinality of a resolving set for $G$ is called the metric dimension of $G$, and denoted by $dim(G)$. In this paper, it is proved that in a connected graph $...

Uniquely Cycle-Saturated Graphs

Given a graph F , a graph G is uniquely F -saturated if F is not a subgraph of G and adding any edge of the complement to G completes exactly one copy of F . In this paper we study uniquely Ct-saturated graphs. We prove the following: (1) a graph is uniquely C5-saturated if and only if it is a friendship graph. (2) There are no uniquely C6-saturated graphs or uniquely C7-saturated graphs. (3) F...

Uniquely Kr-Saturated Graphs

A graph G is uniquely Kr-saturated if it contains no clique with r vertices and if for all edges e in the complement, G + e has a unique clique with r vertices. Previously, few examples of uniquely Kr-saturated graphs were known, and little was known about their properties. We search for these graphs by adapting orbital branching, a technique originally developed for symmetric integer linear pr...

Uniquely pairable graphs

The concept of a k-pairable graph was introduced by Chen (On k-pairable graphs, Discrete Mathematics 287 (2004), 11–15) as an extension of hypercubes and graphs with an antipodal isomorphism. In this talk, we introduce a special class of k-pairable graphs which are called uniquely pairable graphs. Then we give a characterization of uniquely pairable graphs in terms of the prime factor decomposi...

Uniquely Partially Orderable Graphs

Constructing Uniquely Realizable Graphs

In the Graph Realization Problem (GRP), one is given a graph G, a set of non-negative edge-weights, and an integer d. The goal is to find, if possible, a realization of G in the Euclidian space R, such that the distance between any two vertices is the assigned edge weight. The problem has many applications in mathematics and computer science, but is NP-hard when the dimension d is fixed. Charac...
