Abstract

Circulant networks are a very important and widely studied class of graphs due to their interesting and diverse applications in networking, facility location problems, and their symmetric properties. The structure of the graph ensures that it is symmetric about any line that cuts the graph into two equal parts. Due to this symmetric behavior, the resolvability of these graph becomes interning. Subdividing an edge means inserting a new vertex on the edge that divides it into two edges. The subdivision graph G is a graph formed by a series of edge subdivisions. In a graph, a resolving set is a set that uniquely identifies each vertex of the graph by its distance from the other vertices. A metric basis is a resolving set of minimum cardinality, and the number of elements in the metric basis is referred to as the metric dimension. This paper determines the minimum resolving set for the graphs (Formula presented.) constructed from the circulant graph (Formula presented.) by subdividing its edges. We also proved that, for (Formula presented.), this graph class has a constant metric dimension.
