چکیده
Dunbar et al. (1998) in Ref. [3] introduced the OI~/TLLS ck~r~in~rtio~ ~IWH/W ;,-(G) of a graph G and two open problems. In this paper, we show that for every negative integer k and positive integer m>,3. there exists a graph G with gn-th nl and ;‘(G) <k which is a positive answer for the open problem 2 in Ref. [3].

Twin minus domination in directed graphs
Let $D=(V,A)$ be a finite simple directed graph. A function$f:Vlongrightarrow {-1,0,1}$ is called a twin minus dominatingfunction (TMDF) if $f(N^-[v])ge 1$ and $f(N^+[v])ge 1$ for eachvertex $vin V$. The twin minus domination number of $D$ is$gamma_{-}^*(D)=min{w(f)mid f mbox{ is a TMDF of } D}$. Inthis paper, we initiate the study of twin minus domination numbersin digraphs and present some lo...
متن کاملThe minus k-domination numbers in graphs
For any integer , a minus k-dominating function is afunction f : V (G) {-1,0, 1} satisfying w) for every vertex v, where N(v) ={u V(G) | uv E(G)} and N[v] =N(v)cup {v}. The minimum of the values of v), taken over all minusk-dominating functions f, is called the minus k-dominationnumber and is denoted by $gamma_k^-(G)$ . In this paper, we introduce the study of minu...
متن کاملA note on independent domination in graphs of girth 5
Let G be a simple graph of order n, maximum degree ∆ and minimum degree δ ≥ 2. The independent domination number i(G) is defined to be the minimum cardinality among all maximal independent sets of vertices of G. The girth g(G) is the minimum length of a cycle in G. We establish sharp upper and lower bounds, as functions of n, ∆ and δ, for the independent domination number of graphs G with g(G) ...
متن کاملA note on domination and minus domination numbers in cubic graphs
Let G = (V,E) be a graph. A subset S of V is called a dominating set if each vertex of V −S has at least one neighbor in S. The domination number γ(G) equals the minimum cardinality of a dominating set in G. A minus dominating function on G is a function f : V → {−1, 0, 1} such that f(N [v]) = ∑ u∈N [v] f(u) ≥ 1 for each v ∈ V , where N [v] is the closed neighborhood of v. The minus domination ...
متن کاملDomination in Graphs of Minimum Degree at least Two and Large Girth
We prove that for graphs of order n, minimum degree δ ≥ 2 and girth g ≥ 5 the domination number γ satisfies γ ≤ ( 1 3 + 2 3g ) n. As a corollary this implies that for cubic graphs of order n and girth g ≥ 5 the domination number γ satisfies γ ≤ ( 44 135 + 82 135g ) n which improves recent results due to Kostochka and Stodolsky (An upper bound on the domination number of n-vertex connected cubic...
