Inverse Independence Number of a Graph
نویسنده
چکیده
The concept of inverse domination was introduced by Kulli V.R. and Sigarakanti S.C. [9] . Let D be a set of G. A dominating set D1 VD is called an inverse dominating set of G with respect to D. The inverse domination number (G) is the order of a smallest inverse dominating set. Motivated by this definition we define another parameter as follows. Let D be a maximum independent set in G. An independent set S VD is called an inverse independent set with respect to D. The inverse independence Number β0 (G) = max { S : S is an inverse independent set of G}.We find few bounds on inverse domination number and also initiate the study of the inverse independence number giving few bounds on inverse independence number of a graph.

An independent broadcast on a connected graph $G$is a function $f:V(G)to mathbb{N}_0$such that, for every vertex $x$ of $G$, the value $f(x)$ is at most the eccentricity of $x$ in $G$,and $f(x)>0$ implies that $f(y)=0$ for every vertex $y$ of $G$ within distance at most $f(x)$ from $x$.The broadcast independence number $alpha_b(G)$ of $G$is the largest weight $sumlimits_{xin V(G)}f(x)$of an ind...

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a simple graph. A set $Ssubseteq V$ isindependent set of $G$, if no two vertices of $S$ are adjacent.The independence number $alpha(G)$ is the size of a maximumindependent set in the graph. In this paper we study and characterize the independent sets ofthe zero-divisor graph $Gamma(R)$ and ideal-based zero-divisor graph $Gamma_I(R)$of a commutative ring $R$.

In this paper, the composite order Cayley graph Cay(G, S) is introduced, where G is a group and S is the set of all composite order elements of G. Some graph parameters such as diameter, girth, clique number, independence number, vertex chromatic number and domination number are calculated for the composite order Cayley graph of some certain groups. Moreover, the planarity of composite order Ca...

Let $G=(V, E)$ be a simple graph with vertex set $V$ and edge set $E$. A {em mixed Roman dominating function} (MRDF) of $G$ is a function $f:Vcup Erightarrow {0,1,2}$ satisfying the condition that every element $xin Vcup E$ for which $f(x)=0$ is adjacentor incident to at least one element $yin Vcup E$ for which $f(y)=2$. The weight of anMRDF $f$ is $sum _{xin Vcup E} f(x)$. The mi...
متن کاملTotal graph of a $0$-distributive lattice
Let £ be a $0$-distributive lattice with the least element $0$, the greatest element $1$, and ${rm Z}(£)$ its set of zero-divisors. In this paper, we introduce the total graph of £, denoted by ${rm T}(G (£))$. It is the graph with all elements of £ as vertices, and for distinct $x, y in £$, the vertices $x$ and $y$ are adjacent if and only if $x vee y in {rm Z}(£)$. The basic properties of the ...
