Characterizing extremal digraphs for identifying codes and extremal cases of Bondy's theorem on induced subsets
An identifying code of a (di)graph is a dominating subset of the
vertices of such that all distinct vertices of have distinct
(in)neighbourhoods within . In this paper, we classify all finite digraphs
which only admit their whole vertex set in any identifying code. We also
classify all such infinite oriented graphs. Furthermore, by relating this
concept to a well known theorem of A. Bondy on set systems we classify the
extremal cases for this theorem
On global location-domination in graphs
A dominating set of a graph is called locating-dominating, LD-set for
short, if every vertex not in is uniquely determined by the set of
neighbors of belonging to . Locating-dominating sets of minimum
cardinality are called -codes and the cardinality of an LD-code is the
location-domination number . An LD-set of a graph is global
if it is an LD-set of both and its complement . The global
location-domination number is the minimum cardinality of a
global LD-set of . In this work, we give some relations between
locating-dominating sets and the location-domination number in a graph and its
complement.Comment: 15 pages: 2 tables; 8 figures; 20 reference
