چکیده

Let G = (V,E) be a graph and let v ∈ V. Let IRS(v,G) denote the maximum cardinality of an irredundant set in G which contains v. Then IRS(G) = min {IRS(v,G) : v ∈ V } is called the irredundance saturation number of G. In this paper we initiate a study of this parameter.

Independence Saturation and Extended Domination Chain in Graphs

The six basic parameters relating to domination, independence and irredundance satisfy a chain of inequalities given by ir ≤ γ ≤ i ≤ β0 ≤ Γ ≤ IR where ir, IR are the irredundance and upper irredundance numbers, γ,Γ are the domination and upper domination numbers and i, β0 are the independent domination number and independence number respectively. In this paper, we introduce the concept of indep...

Proof of a conjecture on irredundance perfect graphs

Let ir(G) and γ(G) be the irredundance number and the domination number of a graph G, respectively. A graph G is called irredundance perfect if ir(H) = γ(H), for every induced subgraph H of G. In this article we present a result which immediately implies three known conjectures on irredundance perfect graphs.

A disproof of Henning's conjecture on irredundance perfect graphs

Let ir(G) and γ(G) be the irredundance number and the domination number of a graph G, respectively. A graph G is called irredundance perfect if ir(H) = γ(H), for every induced subgraph H of G. In this paper we disprove the known conjecture of Henning [3, 11] that a graph G is irredundance perfect if and only if ir(H) = γ(H) for every induced subgraph H of G with ir(H) ≤ 4. We also give a summar...

On Stability Number of Upper Irredundance Number in Graphs

A vertex v in a vertex-subset I of an undirected graph G is said to be redundant if its closed neighborhood is contained in the union of closed neighborhoods of vertices of I − {v}. In the context of a communication network , this means that any vertex that may receive communications from I may also be informed from I − {v} . The irredundance number ir(G) is the minimum cardinality taken over a...

On the differences of the independence, domination and irredundance parameters of a graph

In this paper we present upper bounds on the differences between the independence, domination and irredundance parameters of a graph. For example, using the Brooks theorem on the chromatic number, we show that for any graph G of order n with maximum degree ∆ ≥ 2 IR(G)− β(G) ≤ ⌊ ∆− 2 2∆ n ⌋ , where β(G) and IR(G) are the independence number and the upper irredundance number of a graph G, respect...
