For a finite graph, the density of a code is $|C|/|V(G)|$, which naturally extends to a definition of density in certain infinite graphs which are locally finite. We find a code of density less than $5/(6r)$, which is sparser than the prior best construction which has density approximately $8/(9r)$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2010-04-08T21:50:38.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "identifying code", "hex grid", "prior best construction", "infinite graphs", "positive integer" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 12, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2010arXiv1004.1430S" } } }
