The general position number of integer lattices

preprint2020arXivOpen access

Abstract

The general position number gp(G){\rm gp}(G) of a connected graph GG is the cardinality of a largest set SS of vertices such that no three pairwise distinct vertices from SS lie on a common geodesic. The nn-dimensional grid graph $\pn$ is the Cartesian product of nn copies of the two-way infinite path P∞P_\infty. It is proved that if n∈Nn\in {\mathbb N}, then gp(P∞n)=22n−1{\rm gp}({P_\infty^n}) = 2^{2^{n-1}}. The result was earlier known only for n∈{1,2}n\in \{1,2\} and partially for n=3n=3.
