Optimal bounds on codes for location in circulant graphs
Identifying and locating-dominating codes have been studied widely in circulant graphs of type C_n(1,2,3,..., r) over the recent years. In 2013, Ghebleh and Niepel studied locating-dominating and identifying codes in the circulant graphs C_n(1,d) for d=3 and proposed as an open question the case of d > 3. In this paper we study identifying, locating-dominating and self-identifying codes in the graphs C_n(1,d), C_n(1,d-1,d) and C_n(1,d-1,d,d+1). We give a new method to study lower bounds for these three codes in the circulant graphs using suitable grids. Moreover, we show that these bounds are attained for infinitely many parameters n and d. In addition, new approaches are provided which give the exact values for the optimal self-identifying codes in C_n(1,3) and C_n(1,4).
