Abstract: We consider the problems of finding optimal identifying codes, (open) locating-dominating sets and resolving sets (denoted IDENTIFYING CODE, (OPEN) LOCATING-DOMINATING SET and METRIC DIMENSION) of an interval or a permutation graph. In these problems, one asks to distinguish all vertices of a graph by a subset of the vertices, using either the neighbourhood within the solution set or the distances to the solution vertices. Using a general reduction for this class of problems, we prove that the decision problems associated to these four notions are NP-complete, even for interval graphs of diameter 2 and permutation graphs of diameter 2. While IDENTIFYING CODE and (OPEN) LOCATING-DOMINATING SET are trivially fixed-parameter-tractable when parameterized by solution size, it is known that in the same setting METRIC DIMENSION is W[2]-hard. We show that for interval graphs, this parameterization of METRIC DIMENSION is fixed-parameter-tractable.
