abstract. let $l$ be a lattice with the least element $0$. an element $xin l$ is a zero divisor if $xwedge y=0$ for some $yin l^*=lsetminus left{0right}$. the set of all zero divisors is denoted by $z(l)$. we associate a simple graph $gamma(l)$ to $l$ with vertex set $z(l)^*=z(l)setminus left{0right}$, the set of non-zero zero divisors of $l$ and distinct $x,yin z(l)^*$ are adjacent if and only...

A {em Roman dominating function} on a graph $G$ is a function$f:V(G)rightarrow {0,1,2}$ satisfying the condition that everyvertex $u$ for which $f(u) = 0$ is adjacent to at least one vertex$v$ for which $f(v) =2$. {color{blue}A {em restrained Roman dominating}function} $f$ is a {color{blue} Roman dominating function if the vertices with label 0 inducea subgraph with no isolated vertex.} The wei...

This paper studies the choosability of signed planar graphs. We prove that every signed planar graph is 5-choosable and that there is a signed planar graph which is not 4-choosable while the unsigned graph is 4-choosable. For each k ∈ {3, 4, 5, 6}, every signed planar graph without circuits of length k is 4-choosable. Furthermore, every signed planar graph without circuits of length 3 and of le...

A signed graph is a graph in which every edge is designated to be either positive or negative; it is balanced if every cycle contains an even number of negative edges. A marked signed graph is a signed graph each vertex of which is designated to be positive or negative, and it is consistent if every cycle in the signed graph possesses an even number of negative vertices. Signed line graph L(S) ...

A recent result of Henning and Southey (A note on graphs with disjoint dominating and total dominating set, Ars Comb. 89 (2008), 159–162) implies that every connected graph of minimum degree at least three has a dominating set D and a total dominating set T which are disjoint. We show that the Petersen graph is the only such graph for which D ∪ T necessarily contains all vertices of the graph.

A subset of vertices of a graph is called a dominating set if every vertex of the graph which is not present in the set has at least one neighbour in it. Dominating set polytope of a graph is defined as the convex hull of 0/1-incidence vectors of all the dominating sets of the graph. This paper presents complete characterization of the dominating set polytope of a cycle.

Abstract: Let G=(V,E) be a graph and let f:V(G)→{0,1,2} be a function‎. ‎A vertex v is protected with respect to f‎, ‎if f(v)>0 or f(v)=0 and v is adjacent to a vertex of positive weight‎. ‎The function f is a co-Roman dominating function‎, ‎abbreviated CRDF if‎: ‎(i) every vertex in V is protected‎, ‎and (ii) each u∈V with positive weight has a neighbor v∈V with f(v)=0 such that the func...
