On global location-domination in graphs

A dominating set $S$ of a graph $G$ is called locating-dominating, LD-set for short, if every vertex $v$ not in $S$ is uniquely determined by the set of neighbors of $v$ belonging to $S$. Locating-dominating sets of minimum cardinality are called $LD$-codes and the cardinality of an LD-code is the location-domination number $\lambda(G)$. An LD-set $S$ of a graph $G$ is global if it is an LD-set of both $G$ and its complement $\overline{G}$. The global location-domination number $\lambda_g(G)$ is the minimum cardinality of a global LD-set of $G$. In this work, we give some relations between locating-dominating sets and the location-domination number in a graph and its complement.
