The Local Metric Dimension of the Lexicographic Product of Graphs

The metric dimension is quite a well-studied graph parameter. Recently, the local metric dimension and the adjacency dimension have been introduced and studied. In this paper, we give a general formula for the local metric dimension of the lexicographic product G∘H\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$$G \circ \mathcal {H}$$\end{document} of a connected graph G of order n and a family H\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$$\mathcal {H}$$\end{document} composed of n graphs. We show that the local metric dimension of G∘H\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$$G \circ \mathcal {H}$$\end{document} can be expressed in terms of the numbers of vertices in the true twin equivalence classes of G, and the local adjacency dimension of the graphs in H\documentclass[12pt]{minimal} \usepackage{amsmath} \usepackage{wasysym} \usepackage{amsfonts} \usepackage{amssymb} \usepackage{amsbsy} \usepackage{mathrsfs} \usepackage{upgreek} \setlength{\oddsidemargin}{-69pt} \begin{document}$$\mathcal {H}$$\end{document}.
