    An \(r\)-identifying code in a general graph is a set \(C\) of vertices such that the balls \(B_r(v)\) of radius \(r\) contain a different (not necessarily disjoint) set of elements in \(C\) for each vertex \(v\). The authors show that no perfect \(r\)-identifying code exists for \(r>1\) using a certain concept of perfect code, give an improved lower bound on the density of codes on square lattices, and show the existence of such 1-identifying codes is NP-complete.NEWLINENEWLINEFor the entire collection see [Zbl 0960.00079].
