The forbidden structure for zero forcing number
The {\it zero forcing number} of a graph $G$, $Z(G)$, is a well-studied parameter which arises from a color changing process and has strong connections to {\it minimum rank}, {\it critical ideals} and related invariants. In this work, we consider the complementary parameter $\mz(G) = |V(G)| - Z(G)$. This parameter is m...
