On Separating Path and Tree Systems in Graphs

Published 21 Dec 2023 in cs.DM and math.CO | (2312.14295v3)

Abstract: We explore the concept of separating systems of vertex sets of graphs. A separating system of a set XX is a collection of subsets of XX such that for any pair of distinct elements in XX, there exists a set in the separating system that contains exactly one of the two elements. A separating system of the vertex set of a graph GG is called a vertex-separating path (tree) system of GG if the elements of the separating system are paths (trees) in the graph GG. In this paper, we focus on the size of the smallest vertex-separating path (tree) system for different types of graphs, including trees, grids, and maximal outerplanar graphs.
