On the diameter of a domination dot-critical graph
نویسنده
چکیده
A graph G is domination dot-critical, or just dot-critical, if contracting any edge decreases the domination number. It is totally dot-critical if identifying any twovertices decreases the domination number. In this paper, we study an open question concerning of the diameter of a domination dot-critical graph G. © 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Domination dot-critical graphs
A graph G is dot-critical if contracting any edge decreases the domination number. It is totally dot-critical if identifying any two vertices decreases the domination number. We show that the totally dot-critical graphs essentially include the much-studied domination vertex-critical and edge-critical graphs as special cases. We investigate these properties, and provide a characterization of dot...
متن کاملThe connectivity of domination dot-critical graphs with no critical vertices
An edge of a graph is called dot-critical if its contraction decreases the domination number. A graph is said to be dot-critical if all of its edges are dot-critical. A vertex of a graph is called critical if its deletion decreases the domination number. In A note on the domination dot-critical graphs, Discrete Appl. Math. 157 (2009) 3743–3745, Chen and Shiu constructed for each even integer k ...
متن کاملDomination dot-critical graphs with no critical vertices
A graph G is dot-critical if contracting any edge decreases the domination number. It is totally dot-critical if identifying any two vertices decreases the domination number. Burton and Sumner [Discrete Math. 306 (2006) 11–18] posed the problem: Is it true that for k 4, there exists a totally k-dot-critical graph with no critical vertices? In this paper, we show that this problem has a positive...
متن کاملThe diameter of total domination and independent domination vertex-critical graphs
We show that the diameter of a total domination vertex-critical graph is at most 5(γt −1)/3, and that the diameter of an independent domination vertex-critical graph is at most 2(i− 1). For all values of γt ≡ 2 (mod 3) there exists a total domination vertex-critical graph with the maximum possible diameter. For all values of i ≥ 2 there exists an independent domination vertex-critical graph wit...
متن کاملOn the Computational Complexity of the Domination Game
The domination game is played on an arbitrary graph $G$ by two players, Dominator and Staller. It is known that verifying whether the game domination number of a graph is bounded by a given integer $k$ is PSPACE-complete. On the other hand, it is showed in this paper that the problem can be solved for a graph $G$ in $mathcal O(Delta(G)cdot |V(G)|^k)$ time. In the special case when $k=3$ and the...
