Notes on the Localization of Generalized Hexagonal Cellular Networks

The act of accessing the exact location, or position, of a node in a network is known as the localization of a network. In this methodology, the precise location of each node within a network can be made in the terms of certain chosen nodes in a subset. This subset is known as the locating set and its minimum cardinality is called the locating number of a network. The generalized hexagonal cellular network is a novel structure for the planning and analysis of a network. In this work, we considered conducting the localization of a generalized hexagonal cellular network. Moreover, we determined and proved the exact locating number for this network. Furthermore, in this technique, each node of a generalized hexagonal cellular network can be accessed uniquely. Lastly, we also discussed the generalized version of the locating set and locating number

A parametric approach to hereditary classes

The “minimal class approach" consists of studying downwards-closed properties of hereditary graph classes (such as boundedness of a certain parameter within the class) by identifying the minimal obstructions to those properties. In this thesis, we look at various hereditary classes through this lens. In practice, this often amounts to analysing the structure of those classes by characterising boundedness of certain graph parameters within them. However, there is more to it than this: while adopting the minimal class viewpoint, we encounter a variety of interesting notions and problems { some more loosely related to the approach than others. The thesis compiles the author's work in the ensuing research directions
