Abstract
In this article we study the Zero forcing number of Generalized Sierpi'{n}ski graphs $S(G,t)$. More precisely, we obtain a general lower bound on the Zero forcing number of $S(G,t)$ and we show that this bound is tight. In particular, we consider the cases in which the base graph $G$ is a star, path, a cycle or a complete graph.
