Autonomous agents traversing a natural space need to be knowledgeable of its space configuration. The existing space models in geographic information systems and robotics, however, deal with only the topological relations among numerous types of spatial relations. We aim to develop an enhanced space

โฆ Synopsis
While graphs are normally defined in terms of the 2-place relation of adjacency, we take the 3-place relation of interception as the basic primitive of their definition. The paper views graphs as an economical scheme for encoding interception relations, and establishes an axiomatic characterization of relations that lend themselves to representation in terms of graph interception, thus providing a new characterization of graphs. o 1996

We show that the bilinear forms graphs H q (n, d) of diameter d โฅ 3 are characterized as distanceregular graphs by their parameters provided that either n โฅ d + 3 and q โฅ 3, or n โฅ d + 4 and q = 2. As a corollary of the method used, we can show the following. If is a distance-regular graph with clas
## Abstract A graph __G__ is domination perfect if for each induced subgraph __H__ of __G__, ฮณ(__H__) = __i__(__H__), where ฮณ and __i__ are a graph's domination number and independent domination number, respectively. Zverovich and Zverovich [3] offered a finite forbidden induced characterization of
