Abstract

It is known that the problem of computing the edge dimension of a graph is NP-hard, and that the edge dimension of any generalized Petersen graph P(n, k) is at least 3. We prove that the graph P(n, 3) has edge dimension 4 for $$n\ge 11$$ n ≥ 11 , by showing semi-combinatorially the nonexistence of an edge resolving set of order 3 and by constructing explicitly an edge resolving set of order 4.
