Open-independent, Open-locating-dominating Sets

A distinguishing set for a graph G = (V, E) is a dominating set D, each vertex $v \in D$ being the location of some form of a locating device, from which one can detect and precisely identify any given "intruder" vertex in V(G). As with many applications of dominating sets, the set $D$ might be required to have a certain property for <D>, the subgraph induced by D (such as independence, paired, or connected). Recently the study of independent locating-dominating sets and independent identifying codes was initiated. Here we introduce the property of open-independence for open-locating-dominating sets
