Abstract

Consider an oriented graph G = (V, A), a subset of vertices C ⊆ V, and an integer r≥1; for any vertex v ∈ V, let Br- (v) denote the set of all vertices x such that there exists a path from x to v with at most r arcs. If for all vertices v ∈ V, the sets Br- (v)∩C are all nonempty and different, then we call C an r-identifying code. We describe a linear algorithm which gives a minimum I-identifying code in any oriented tree.
