| contents | In this paper we begin the study of well-failed graphs, that is, graphs in which every maximal failed zero forcing set is a maximum failed zero forcing set, or equivalently, in which every minimal fort is a minimum fort. We characterize trees that are well-failed. Along the way, we prove that the set of vertices in a graph that are not in any minimal fort is identical to the set of vertices that are in no minimal zero forcing set, which allows us to characterize vertices in a tree that are in no minimal fort. |
