초록

For an ordered set W = {w1, w2, . . . , wk} of vertices and a vertex v in a connected graph G, the k-vector r(v|W) = (d(v, w1), d(v, w2), . . . , d(v, wk)) is called the metric representation of v with respect to W, where d(x, y) is the distance between the vertices x and y. A set W is called a resolving set for G if distinct vertices of G have distinct metric representations with respect to W. The minimum cardinality of a resolving set for G is its metric dimension dim(G), and a resolving set of minimum cardinality is a basis of G. The corona product, G ⊙ H of graphs G and H is obtained by taking one copy of G and n(G) copies of H, and by joining each vertex of the ith copy of H to the ith vertex of G. In this paper, we obtain bounds for dim(G ⊙ K1), characterize all graphs G with dim(G ⊙ K1) = dim(G), and prove that dim(G ⊙ K1) = n − 1 if and only if G is the complete graph Kn or the star graph K1,n−1.

Abstract

For an ordered set W = {w1, w2, . . . , wk} of vertices and a vertex v in a connected graph G, the k-vector r(v|W) = (d(v, w1), d(v, w2), . . . , d(v, wk)) is called the metric representation of v with respect to W, where d(x, y) is the distance between the vertices x and y. A set W is called a resolving set for G if distinct vertices of G have distinct metric representations with respect to W. The minimum cardinality of a resolving set for G is its metric dimension dim(G), and a resolving set of minimum cardinality is a basis of G. The corona product, G ⊙ H of graphs G and H is obtained by taking one copy of G and n(G) copies of H, and by joining each vertex of the ith copy of H to the ith vertex of G. In this paper, we obtain bounds for dim(G ⊙ K1), characterize all graphs G with dim(G ⊙ K1) = dim(G), and prove that dim(G ⊙ K1) = n − 1 if and only if G is the complete graph Kn or the star graph K1,n−1.
