Metric dimension, minimal doubly resolving sets and the strong metric dimension for jellyfish graph and cocktail party graph

Abstract

Let $\Gamma$ be a simple connected undirected graph with vertex set $V(\Gamma)$ and edge set $E(\Gamma)$. The metric dimension of a graph $\Gamma$ is the least number of vertices in a set with the property that the list of distances from any vertex to those in the set uniquely identifies that vertex. For an ordered subset $W = \{w_1, w_2, ..., w_k\}$ of vertices in a graph $\Gamma$ and a vertex $v$ of $\Gamma$, the metric representation of $v$ with respect to $W$ is the $k$-vector $r(v | W) = (d(v, w_1), d(v, w_2), ..., d(v, w_k ))$. If every pair of distinct vertices of $\Gamma$ have different metric representations then the ordered set $W$ is called a resolving set of $\Gamma$. It is known that the problem of computing this invariant is NP-hard. In this paper, we consider the problem of determining the cardinality $\psi(\Gamma)$ of minimal doubly resolving sets of $\Gamma$, and the strong metric dimension for jellyfish graph $JFG(n, m)$ and cocktail party graph $CP(k+1)$.

Average Chord Lengths in a Triangle

Let $P$ be a point inside a triangle $T$. We consider the average length of the chords of $T$ through $P$, where the direction of the chord is chosen uniformly. An elementary formula is obtained in terms of the distances from $P$ to the sides and vertices of the triangle. Several classical triangle centers give especially simple specializations. For example, if $I$ is the incenter, then \[ M_T(I)=\frac{2r}{\pi} \log\left(\cot\frac A4\cot\frac B4\cot\frac C4\right). \] Our main result is the sharp inequality \[ M_T(P)\le \frac{p}{\pi\sqrt3}\log(2+\sqrt3), \] valid simultaneously for every triangle of perimeter $p$ and every interior point $P$. Thus, among all such pairs $(T,P)$, the largest possible average chord length occurs only when $T$ is equilateral and $P$ is its center. The proof is an elementary symmetrization argument. We close with brief remarks relating the problem to the radial center of a convex body, the electrostatic potential center of a triangle, and dual quermassintegrals.

A Proof of Liu's Conjecture on the Fundamental Triangle Inequality

Let $a,b,c$ be the side lengths of a triangle, and let $R$ and $r$ denote its circumradius and inradius, respectively. We prove a conjecture of Liu stating that \[\sum_{\mathrm{cyc}} \left(\frac{a(b+c-a)}{bc}\right)^k \geq 2+\left(\frac{2r}{R}\right)^k,~~k>1, \] with the reverse inequality for $0<k<1$. The proof reduces the problem to three positive variables with fixed sum and product. We also determine the equality cases.
