If the additional requirement that the set must be independent is added, the existence of such sets is not guaranteed in every graph. In this paper we solve some problems previously posed by other authors about independent [1, 2]-sets. We provide a necessary condition for a graph to have an independent [1, 2]-set, in terms of spanning trees, and we prove that this condition is also sufficient for cactus graphs. We follow the concept of excellent tree and characterize the family of trees such that any vertex belongs to some independent [1, 2]-set. Finally, we describe a linear algorithm to decide whether a tree has an independent [1, 2]-set. This algorithm can be easily modified to obtain the cardinality of a smallest independent [1, 2]-set of a tree.

Additionally, we introduce and implement two algorithmic procedures related to this study: the first is devoted to draw, if exists, the digraph associated with a given Lie algebra; whereas the
