On Graphs with Disjoint Dominating and 2-Dominating Sets

Michael A. Henning, Douglas F. Rall (2013)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

A DD2-pair of a graph G is a pair (D,D2) of disjoint sets of vertices of G such that D is a dominating set and D2 is a 2-dominating set of G. Although there are infinitely many graphs that do not contain a DD2-pair, we show that every graph with minimum degree at least two has a DD2-pair. We provide a constructive characterization of trees that have a DD2-pair and show that K3,3 is the only connected graph with minimum degree at least three for which D ∪ D2 necessarily contains all vertices...

Graphs with disjoint dominating and paired-dominating sets

Justin Southey, Michael Henning (2010)

Open Mathematics

Similarity:

A dominating set of a graph is a set of vertices such that every vertex not in the set is adjacent to a vertex in the set, while a paired-dominating set of a graph is a dominating set such that the subgraph induced by the dominating set contains a perfect matching. In this paper, we show that no minimum degree is sufficient to guarantee the existence of a disjoint dominating set and a paired-dominating set. However, we prove that the vertex set of every cubic graph can be partitioned...

Domination Parameters of a Graph and its Complement

Wyatt J. Desormeaux, Teresa W. Haynes, Michael A. Henning (2018)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

A dominating set in a graph G is a set S of vertices such that every vertex in V (G) S is adjacent to at least one vertex in S, and the domination number of G is the minimum cardinality of a dominating set of G. Placing constraints on a dominating set yields different domination parameters, including total, connected, restrained, and clique domination numbers. In this paper, we study relationships among domination parameters of a graph and its complement.

Cubic Graphs with Total Domatic Number at Least Two

Saieed Akbari, Mohammad Motiei, Sahand Mozaffari, Sina Yazdanbod (2018)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

Let G be a graph with no isolated vertex. A total dominating set of G is a set S of vertices of G such that every vertex is adjacent to at least one vertex in S. The total domatic number of a graph is the maximum number of total dominating sets which partition the vertex set of G. In this paper we provide a criterion under which a cubic graph has total domatic number at least two.

A Gallai-type equality for the total domination number of a graph

Sanming Zhou (2004)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

We prove the following Gallai-type equality γₜ(G) + εₜ(G) = p for any graph G with no isolated vertex, where p is the number of vertices of G, γₜ(G) is the total domination number of G, and εₜ(G) is the maximum integer s such that there exists a spanning forest F with s the number of pendant edges of F minus the number of star components of F.

Two Short Proofs on Total Domination

Allan Bickle (2013)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

A set of vertices of a graph G is a total dominating set if each vertex of G is adjacent to a vertex in the set. The total domination number of a graph Υt (G) is the minimum size of a total dominating set. We provide a short proof of the result that Υt (G) ≤ 2/3n for connected graphs with n ≥ 3 and a short characterization of the extremal graphs.

The bondage number of graphs: good and bad vertices

Vladimir Samodivkin (2008)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

The domination number γ(G) of a graph G is the minimum number of vertices in a set D such that every vertex of the graph is either in D or is adjacent to a member of D. Any dominating set D of a graph G with |D| = γ(G) is called a γ-set of G. A vertex x of a graph G is called: (i) γ-good if x belongs to some γ-set and (ii) γ-bad if x belongs to no γ-set. The bondage number b(G) of a nonempty graph G is the cardinality of a smallest set of edges whose removal from G results in a graph...

The Distance Roman Domination Numbers of Graphs

Hamideh Aram, Sepideh Norouzian, Seyed Mahmoud Sheikholeslami (2013)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

Let k be a positive integer, and let G be a simple graph with vertex set V (G). A k-distance Roman dominating function on G is a labeling f : V (G) → {0, 1, 2} such that for every vertex with label 0, there is a vertex with label 2 at distance at most k from each other. The weight of a k-distance Roman dominating function f is the value w(f) =∑v∈V f(v). The k-distance Roman domination number of a graph G, denoted by γkR (D), equals the minimum weight of a k-distance Roman dominating...

Vertices Contained In All Or In No Minimum Semitotal Dominating Set Of A Tree

Michael A. Henning, Alister J. Marcon (2016)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

Let G be a graph with no isolated vertex. In this paper, we study a parameter that is squeezed between arguably the two most important domination parameters; namely, the domination number, γ(G), and the total domination number, γt(G). A set S of vertices in a graph G is a semitotal dominating set of G if it is a dominating set of G and every vertex in S is within distance 2 of another vertex of S. The semitotal domination number, γt2(G), is the minimum cardinality of a semitotal dominating...

Various Bounds for Liar’s Domination Number

Abdollah Alimadadi, Doost Ali Mojdeh, Nader Jafari Rad (2016)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

Let G = (V,E) be a graph. A set S ⊆ V is a dominating set if Uv∈S N[v] = V , where N[v] is the closed neighborhood of v. Let L ⊆ V be a dominating set, and let v be a designated vertex in V (an intruder vertex). Each vertex in L ∩ N[v] can report that v is the location of the intruder, but (at most) one x ∈ L ∩ N[v] can report any w ∈ N[x] as the intruder location or x can indicate that there is no intruder in N[x]. A dominating set L is called a liar’s dominating set if every v ∈ V...

Partitioning a graph into a dominating set, a total dominating set, and something else

Michael A. Henning, Christian Löwenstein, Dieter Rautenbach (2010)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

A recent result of Henning and Southey (A note on graphs with disjoint dominating and total dominating set, Ars Comb. 89 (2008), 159-162) implies that every connected graph of minimum degree at least three has a dominating set D and a total dominating set T which are disjoint. We show that the Petersen graph is the only such graph for which D∪T necessarily contains all vertices of the graph.

On the Totalk-Domination in Graphs

Sergio Bermudo, Juan C. Hernández-Gómez, José M. Sigarreta (2018)

Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory

Similarity:

Let G = (V, E) be a graph; a set S ⊆ V is a total k-dominating set if every vertex v ∈ V has at least k neighbors in S. The total k-domination number γkt(G) is the minimum cardinality among all total k-dominating sets. In this paper we obtain several tight bounds for the total k-domination number of a graph. In particular, we investigate the relationship between the total k-domination number of a graph and the order, the size, the girth, the minimum and maximum degree, the diameter,...
