Abstract
Let G=(V,E) be an undirected graph and C a subset of vertices. If the sets Br(v)∩C, v∈V (respectively, v∈V⧹C), are all nonempty and different, where Br(v) denotes the set of all points within distance r from v, we call C an r-identifying code (respectively, an r-locating-dominating code). We prove that, given a graph G and an integer k, the decision problem of the existence of an r-identifying code, or of an r-locating-dominating code, of size at most k in G, is NP-complete for any r.
