Toll convexity
A walk W between two non-adjacent vertices in a graph G is called tolled if the first vertex of W is among vertices from W adjacent only to the second vertex of W, and the last vertex of W is among vertices from W adjacent only to the second-last vertex of W. In the resulting interval convexity, a set S ⊂ V(G) is toll convex if for any two non-adjacent vertices x, y ∈ S any vertex in a tolled walk between x and y is also in S. The main result of the paper is that a graph is a convex geometry (i.e. satisfies the Minkowski-Krein-Milman property stating that any convex subset is the convex hull of its extreme vertices) with respect to toll convexity if and only if it is an interval graph. Furthermore, some well-known types of invariants are studied with respect to toll convexity, and toll convex sets in three standard graph products are completely described.Facultad de Ciencias Exacta

Weakly toll convexity in graph products
The exploration of weakly toll convexity is the focus of this investigation.
A weakly toll walk is any walk between and
such that is adjacent only to the vertex , which can appear more
than once in the walk, and is adjacent only to the vertex , which
can appear more than once in the walk. Through an examination of general graphs
and an analysis of weakly toll intervals in both lexicographic and
(generalized) corona product graphs, precise values of the weakly toll number
for these product graphs are obtained. Notably, in both instances, the weakly
toll number is constrained to either 2 or 3. Additionally, the determination of
the weakly toll number for the Cartesian and the strong product graphs is
established through previously established findings in toll convexity theory.
Lastly for all graph products examined within our scope, the weakly toll hull
number is consistently determined to be 2
Computing the hull number in toll convexity
A walk W between vertices u and v of a graph G is called a tolled walk between u and v if u, as well as v, has exactly one neighbour in W. A set S ⊆ V (G) is toll convex if the vertices contained in any tolled walk between two vertices of S are contained in S. The toll convex hull of S is the minimum toll convex set containing S. The toll hull number of G is the minimum cardinality of a set S such that the toll convex hull of S is V (G). The main contribution of this work is an algorithm for computing the toll hull number of a general graph in polynomial time
A note on path domination
We study domination between different types of walks connecting two non-adjacent vertices u and v of a graph (shortest paths, induced paths, paths, tolled walks). We succeeded in characterizing those graphs in which every uv-walk of one particular kind dominates every uv-walk of other specific kind. We thereby obtained new characterizations of standard graph classes like chordal, interval and superfragile graphs.Facultad de Ciencias Exacta
The Toll Walk Transit Function of a Graph: Axiomatic Characterizations and First-Order Non-definability
A walk , , is called a toll walk if
and and are the only neighbors of and ,
respectively, on in a graph . A toll walk interval , , contains all the vertices that belong to a toll walk between and
. The toll walk intervals yield a toll walk transit function . We represent several axioms that characterize the
toll walk transit function among chordal graphs, trees, asteroidal triple-free
graphs, Ptolemaic graphs, and distance hereditary graphs. We also show that the
toll walk transit function can not be described in the language of first-order
logic for an arbitrary graph.Comment: 31 pages, 4 figures, 25 reference
