Functions of Bounded Index and Their Logarithmic Derivatives.
A set S is an offensive alliance if for every vertex v in its boundary N(S)- S it holds that the majority of vertices in v's closed neighbourhood are in S. The offensive alliance number is the minimum cardinality of an offensive alliance. In this paper we explore the bounds on the offensive alliance and the strong offensive alliance numbers (where a strict majority is required). In particular, we show that the offensive alliance number is at most 2/3 the order and the strong offensive alliance number...
A set S ⊆ V is a dominating set of a graph G = (V,E) if every vertex in V -S is adjacent to at least one vertex in S. The domination number γ(G) of G equals the minimum cardinality of a dominating set S in G; we say that such a set S is a γ-set. In this paper we consider the family of all γ-sets in a graph G and we define the γ-graph G(γ) = (V(γ), E(γ)) of G to be the graph whose vertices V(γ) correspond 1-to-1 with the γ-sets of G, and two γ-sets, say D₁ and D₂, are adjacent in E(γ) if there exists...
