Metric Dimension (graph Theory) - Properties

Properties

In Chartrand, Eroh & Oellermann (2000), it is proved that:

  • The metric dimension of a graph G is 1 if and only if G is a path.
  • The metric dimension of an n-vertex graph is n − 1 if and only if it is a complete graph.
  • The metric dimension of an n-vertex graph is n − 2 if and only if the graph is a complete bipartite graph Ks, t, a split graph, or .

Khuller, Raghavachari & Rosenfeld (1996) prove the inequality for any n-vertex graph with diameter D and metric dimension β.

Famous quotes containing the word properties:

    A drop of water has the properties of the sea, but cannot exhibit a storm. There is beauty of a concert, as well as of a flute; strength of a host, as well as of a hero.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    The reason why men enter into society, is the preservation of their property; and the end why they choose and authorize a legislative, is, that there may be laws made, and rules set, as guards and fences to the properties of all the members of the society: to limit the power, and moderate the dominion, of every part and member of the society.
    John Locke (1632–1704)
