A subset $S$ of vertices of a connected graph $G$ is a distance-equalizer set if for every two distinct vertices $x, y in V (G) setminus S$ there is a vertex $w in S$ such that the distances from $x$ and $y$ to $w$ are the same. The equidistant dimension of $G$ is the minimum cardinality of a distance-equalizer set of G. This paper is devoted to introduce this parameter and explore its properties and applications to other mathematical problems, not necessarily in the context of graph theory. Concretely, we first establish some bounds concerning the order, the maximum degree, the clique number, and the independence number, and characterize all graphs attaining some extremal values. We then study the equidistant dimension of several families of graphs (complete and complete multipartite graphs, bistars, paths, cycles, and Johnson graphs), proving that, in the case of paths and cycles, this parameter is related with 3-AP-free sets. Subsequently, we show the usefulness of distance-equalizer sets for constructing doubly resolving sets.
For an ordered subset $S = {s_1, s_2,dots s_k}$ of vertices and a vertex $u$ in a connected graph $G$, the metric representation of $u$ with respect to $S$ is the ordered $k$-tuple $ r(u|S)=(d_G(v,s_1), d_G(v,s_2),dots,$ $d_G(v,s_k))$, where $d_G(x,y
It has been known for more than 40 years that there are posets with planar cover graphs and arbitrarily large dimension. Recently, Streib and Trotter proved that such posets must have large height. In fact, all known constructions of such posets have
Dimension is a standard and well-studied measure of complexity of posets. Recent research has provided many new upper bounds on the dimension for various structurally restricted classes of posets. Bounded dimension gives a succinct representation of
The asymptotic dimension is an invariant of metric spaces introduced by Gromov in the context of geometric group theory. In this paper, we study the asymptotic dimension of metric spaces generated by graphs and their shortest path metric and show the
We give new examples and describe the complete lists of all measures on the set of countable homogeneous universal graphs and $K_s$-free homogeneous universal graphs (for $sgeq 3$) that are invariant with respect to the group of all permutations of t
