Let G be a connected graph with vertex set V(G) and d(u,v) be the distance between the vertices u and v. A set of vertices S={s1,s2,…,sk}⊂V(G) is called a resolving set for G if, for any two distinct vertices u,v∈V(G), there is a vertex si∈S such that d(u,si)≠d(v,si). A resolving set S for G is fault-tolerant if S\{x} is also a resolving set, for each x in S, and the fault-tolerant metric dimension of G, denoted by β′(G), is the minimum cardinality of such a set. The paper of Basak et al. on fault-tolerant metric dimension of circulant graphs Cn(1,2,3) has determined the exact value of β′(Cn(1,2,3)). In this article, we extend the results of Basak et al. to the graph Cn(1,2,3,4) and obtain the exact value of β′(Cn(1,2,3,4)) for all n≥22.

A set $W$ of vertices in a graph $G$ is called a resolving setfor $G$ if for every pair of distinct vertices $u$ and $v$ of $G$ there exists a vertex $w \in W$ such that the distance between $u$ and $w$ is different from the distance between $v$ and $w$. The cardinality of a minimum resolving set is called the metric dimension of $G$, denoted by $\beta(G)$. A resolving set $W'$ for $G$ is fault-tolerant if $W'\setminus \left\lbrace w\right\rbrace $ for each $w$ in $W'$, is also a resolving set and the fault-tolerant metric dimension of $G$ is the minimum cardinality of such a set, denoted by $\beta'(G)$. The circulant graph is a graph with vertex set $\mathbb{Z}_{n}$, an additive group of integers modulo $n$, and two vertices labeled $i$ and $j$ adjacent if and only if $i -j \left( mod \ n \right)  \in C$, where $C \in \mathbb{Z}_{n}$ has the property that $C=-C$ and $0 \notin C$. The circulant graph is denoted by $X_{n,\bigtriangleup}$ where $\bigtriangleup = \vert C\vert$. In this paper, we study the fault-tolerant metric dimension of a family of circulant graphs $X_{n,3}$ with connection set $C=\lbrace 1,\dfrac{n}{2},n-1\rbrace$ and circulant graphs $X_{n,4}$ with connection set $C=\lbrace \pm 1,\pm 2\rbrace$.

Let [Formula: see text] be a connected graph and [Formula: see text] be the distance between the vertices [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] in [Formula: see text]. The diameter of [Formula: see text] is defined as [Formula: see text] and is denoted by [Formula: see text]. A subset of vertices [Formula: see text] is called a resolving set for [Formula: see text] if for every two distinct vertices [Formula: see text], there is a vertex [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], such that [Formula: see text]. A resolving set containing the minimum number of vertices is called a metric basis for [Formula: see text] and the number of vertices in a metric basis is its metric dimension, denoted by [Formula: see text]. Metric dimension is a generalization of affine dimension to arbitrary metric spaces (provided a resolving set exists). Let [Formula: see text] be a family of connected graphs [Formula: see text] depending on [Formula: see text] as follows: the order [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. If there exists a constant [Formula: see text] such that [Formula: see text] for every [Formula: see text] then we shall say that [Formula: see text] has bounded metric dimension, otherwise [Formula: see text] has unbounded metric dimension. If all graphs in [Formula: see text] have the same metric dimension, then [Formula: see text] is called a family of graphs with constant metric dimension. In this paper, we study the metric properties of an infinite class of circulant graphs with three generators denoted by [Formula: see text] for any positive integer [Formula: see text] and when [Formula: see text]. We compute the diameter and determine the exact value of the metric dimension of these circulant graphs.

In chemistry, graphs are commonly used to show the structure of chemical compounds, with nodes and edges representing the atom and bond types, respectively. Edge resolving set λ e is an ordered subset of nodes of a graph C , in which each edge of C is distinctively determined by its distance vector to the nodes in λ . The cardinality of a minimum edge resolving set is called the edge metric dimension of C . An edge resolving set L e , f of C is fault-tolerant if λ e , f ∖ b is also an edge resolving set, for every b in λ e , f . Resolving set allows obtaining a unique representation for chemical structures. In particular, they were used in pharmaceutical research for discovering patterns common to a variety of drugs. In this paper, we determine the exact edge metric and fault-tolerant edge metric dimension of benzenoid tripod structure and proved that both parameters are constant.

In this paper, we consider fault-tolerant resolving sets in graphs. We characterize n-vertex graphs with fault-tolerant metric dimension n, n − 1 , and 2, which are the lower and upper extremal cases. Furthermore, in the first part of the paper, a method is presented to locate fault-tolerant resolving sets by using classical resolving sets in graphs. The second part of the paper applies the proposed method to three infinite families of regular graphs and locates certain fault-tolerant resolving sets. By accumulating the obtained results with some known results in the literature, we present certain lower and upper bounds on the fault-tolerant metric dimension of these families of graphs. As a byproduct, it is shown that these families of graphs preserve a constant fault-tolerant resolvability structure.
