In this paper, we discuss the properties of a class of generalized harmonic numbers \( H_{n,r} \). Using Riordan arrays and generating functions, we establish some identities involving \( H_{n,r} \). Furthermore, we investigate certain sums related to harmonic polynomials \( H_n(z) \). In particular, using the Riordan array method, we explore interesting relationships between these polynomials, the generating Stirling polynomials, the Bernoulli polynomials, and the Cauchy polynomials. Finally, we obtain the asymptotic expansion of certain sums involving \( H_{n,r} \).

We prove that \( F_v(3,5;6) = 16 \), which solves the smallest open case of vertex Folkman numbers of the form \( F_v(3, k; k+1) \). The proof uses computer algorithms.

A family \( \mathcal{G} \) of connected graphs is a family with constant metric dimension if \( \dim(G) \) is finite and does not depend upon the choice of \( G \) in \( \mathcal{G} \). The metric dimension of some classes of plane graphs has been determined in references [3], [4], [5], [12], [14], and [18], while the metric dimension of some families of convex polytopes has been studied in references [8], [9], [10], and [11]. The following open problem was raised in reference [11].

Open Problem [11]: Let \( G \) be the graph of a convex polytope which is obtained by joining the graph of two different convex polytopes \( G_1 \) and \( G_2 \) (such that the outer cycle of \( G_1 \) is the inner cycle of \( G_2 \)) both having constant metric dimension. Is it the case that \( G \) will always have constant metric dimension?

In this paper, we extend this study to an infinite class of convex polytopes obtained as a combination of the graph of an antiprism \( A_n \) [1] and the graph of convex polytope \( Q_n \) [2], such that the outer cycle of \( A_n \) is the inner cycle of \( Q_n \). It is natural to ask for the characterization of classes of convex polytopes with constant metric dimension. Note that the problem of determining whether \( \dim(G) < k \) is an NP-complete problem [7].
