چکیده

Let p be a positive integer and G = (V;E) a graph. A subset S of V is a p-dominating set if every vertex of V S is dominated at least p times. The minimum cardinality of a p-dominating set a of G is the p-domination number p(G): It is proved for a cactus graph G that p(G) 6 (jV j+ jLp(G)j+c(G))=2; for every positive integer p > 2; where Lp(G) is the set of vertices of G of degree at most p 1 and c(G) is the number of odd cycles in G:

A Characterization of the Cactus Graphs with Equal Domination and Connected Domination Numbers

A cactus graph is a connected graph in which any two cycles have at most one vertex in common. Let γ(G) and γc(G) be the domination number and connected domination number of a graph G, respectively. We can see that γ(G) ≤ γc(G) for any graph G. S. Arumugam and J. Paulraj Joseph [1] have characterized trees, unicyclic graphs and cubic graphs with equal domination and connected domination numbers...

On the super domination number of graphs

The open neighborhood of a vertex $v$ of a graph $G$ is the set $N(v)$ consisting of all vertices adjacent to $v$ in $G$. For $Dsubseteq V(G)$, we define $overline{D}=V(G)setminus D$. A set $Dsubseteq V(G)$ is called a super dominating set of $G$ if for every vertex $uin overline{D}$, there exists $vin D$ such that $N(v)cap overline{D}={u}$. The super domination number of $G$ is the minimum car...

On graphs with equal domination and 2-domination numbers

Theorem 3. (Hansberg, Volkmann [4], 2007) Let G be a cactus graph. Then γ2(G) = γ(G) if and only if G is a C4-cactus. Let H be the family of graphs such that G ∈ H if and only if either G arises from a cartesian product Kp ×Kp of two complete graphs of order p for an integer p ≥ 3 by inflating every vertex but the ones on a transversal to a clique of arbitrary order, or G is a claw-free graph w...

Total double Roman domination in graphs

Let $G$ be a simple graph with vertex set $V$. A double Roman dominating function (DRDF) on $G$ is a function $f:Vrightarrow{0,1,2,3}$ satisfying that if $f(v)=0$, then the vertex $v$ must be adjacent to at least two vertices assigned $2$ or one vertex assigned $3$ under $f$, whereas if $f(v)=1$, then the vertex $v$ must be adjacent to at least one vertex assigned $2$ or $3$. The weight of a DR...
