Vertex identifying codes for the n-dimensional lattice

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 different. Here, we provide an overview on codes for the $n$-dimensional lattice, discussing the case of 1-identifying codes, constructing a sparse code for the 4-dimensional lattice as well as showing that for fixed $n$, the minimum density of an $r$-identifying code is $\Theta(1/r^{n-1})$.Comment: 10p

Perfect domination in regular grid graphs

We show there is an uncountable number of parallel total perfect codes in the integer lattice graph ${\Lambda}$ of $\R^2$. In contrast, there is just one 1-perfect code in ${\Lambda}$ and one total perfect code in ${\Lambda}$ restricting to total perfect codes of rectangular grid graphs (yielding an asymmetric, Penrose, tiling of the plane). We characterize all cycle products $C_m\times C_n$ with parallel total perfect codes, and the $d$-perfect and total perfect code partitions of ${\Lambda}$ and $C_m\times C_n$, the former having as quotient graph the undirected Cayley graphs of $\Z_{2d^2+2d+1}$ with generator set $\{1,2d^2\}$. For $r>1$, generalization for 1-perfect codes is provided in the integer lattice of $\R^r$ and in the products of $r$ cycles, with partition quotient graph $K_{2r+1}$ taken as the undirected Cayley graph of $\Z_{2r+1}$ with generator set $\{1,...,r\}$.Comment: 16 pages; 11 figures; accepted for publication in Austral.

Dissections, Hom-complexes and the Cayley trick

We show that certain canonical realizations of the complexes Hom(G,H) and Hom_+(G,H) of (partial) graph homomorphisms studied by Babson and Kozlov are in fact instances of the polyhedral Cayley trick. For G a complete graph, we then characterize when a canonical projection of these complexes is itself again a complex, and exhibit several well-known objects that arise as cells or subcomplexes of such projected Hom-complexes: the dissections of a convex polygon into k-gons, Postnikov's generalized permutohedra, staircase triangulations, the complex dual to the lower faces of a cyclic polytope, and the graph of weak compositions of an integer into a fixed number of summands.Comment: 23 pages, 5 figures; improved exposition; accepted for publication in JCT

An improved lower bound for (1,<=2)-identifying codes in the king grid

We call a subset $C$ of vertices of a graph $G$ a $(1,\leq \ell)$-identifying code if for all subsets $X$ of vertices with size at most $\ell$, the sets $\{c\in C |\exists u \in X, d(u,c)\leq 1\}$ are distinct. The concept of identifying codes was introduced in 1998 by Karpovsky, Chakrabarty and Levitin. Identifying codes have been studied in various grids. In particular, it has been shown that there exists a $(1,\leq 2)$-identifying code in the king grid with density 3/7 and that there are no such identifying codes with density smaller than 5/12. Using a suitable frame and a discharging procedure, we improve the lower bound by showing that any $(1,\leq 2)$-identifying code of the king grid has density at least 47/111
