A note on locating-dominating sets in twin-free graphs

In this short note, we prove that every twin-free graph on n vertices contains a locating-dominating set of size at most ⌈ 5 8 n ⌉ . This improves the earlier bound of ⌊ 2 3 n ⌋ due to Foucaud, Henning, Löwenstein and Sasse from 2016, and makes some progress towards the well-studied locating-dominating conjecture of Garijo, González and Márquez.

Abstract

In this short note, we prove that every twin-free graph on n vertices contains a locating-dominating set of size at most ⌈ 5 8 n ⌉ . This improves the earlier bound of ⌊ 2 3 n ⌋ due to Foucaud, Henning, Löwenstein and Sasse from 2016, and makes some progress towards the well-studied locating-dominating conjecture of Garijo, González and Márquez.
