A note on $k$-metric dimensional graphs
Samuel G. Corregidor, Álvaro Martínez-Pérez · arXiv (Cornell University) · 2019
Given a graph $G = (V,E)$, a set $S \subset V$ is called a $k$-\emph{metric generator} for $G$ if any pair of different vertices of $G$ is distinguished by at least $k$ elements of $S$. A graph is $k$-\emph{metric dimensional} if $k$ is the largest integer such that there exists a $k$-metric generator for $G$. This paper studies some bounds on the number $k$ for which a graph is $k$-metric dimensional.
