چکیده

Recently, Azarija et al. considered the prism G K2 of a graph G and showed that γt(G K2) = 2γ(G) if G is bipartite, where γt(G) and γ(G) are the total domination number and the domination number of G. In this note, we give a simple proof and observe that there are similar results for other pairs of parameters. We also answer a question from that paper and show that for all graphs γt(G K2) ≥ 4 3γ(G), and this bound is tight.

Lower bounds on the signed (total) $k$-domination number

Let $G$ be a graph with vertex set $V(G)$. For any integer $kge 1$, a signed (total) $k$-dominating functionis a function $f: V(G) rightarrow { -1, 1}$ satisfying $sum_{xin N[v]}f(x)ge k$ ($sum_{xin N(v)}f(x)ge k$)for every $vin V(G)$, where $N(v)$ is the neighborhood of $v$ and $N[v]=N(v)cup{v}$. The minimum of the values$sum_{vin V(G)}f(v)$, taken over all signed (total) $k$-dominating functi...

A characterization relating domination, semitotal domination and total Roman domination in trees

A total Roman dominating function on a graph $G$ is a function $f: V(G) rightarrow {0,1,2}$ such that for every vertex $vin V(G)$ with $f(v)=0$ there exists a vertex $uin V(G)$ adjacent to $v$ with $f(u)=2$, and the subgraph induced by the set ${xin V(G): f(x)geq 1}$ has no isolated vertices. The total Roman domination number of $G$, denoted $gamma_{tR}(G)$, is the minimum weight $omega(f)=sum_...

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...

Total $k$-Rainbow domination numbers in graphs

Let $kgeq 1$ be an integer, and let $G$ be a graph. A {it$k$-rainbow dominating function} (or a {it $k$-RDF}) of $G$ is afunction $f$ from the vertex set $V(G)$ to the family of all subsetsof ${1,2,ldots ,k}$ such that for every $vin V(G)$ with$f(v)=emptyset $, the condition $bigcup_{uinN_{G}(v)}f(u)={1,2,ldots,k}$ is fulfilled, where $N_{G}(v)$ isthe open neighborhood of $v$. The {it weight} o...

(Total) Domination in Prisms

Using hypergraph transversals it is proved that γt(Qn+1) = 2γ(Qn), where γt(G) and γ(G) denote the total domination number and the domination number of G, respectively, and Qn is the n-dimensional hypercube. More generally, it is shown that if G is a bipartite graph, then γt(G K2) = 2γ(G). Further, we show that the bipartiteness condition is essential by constructing, for any k > 1, a (non-bipa...
