In this paper we consider the (d, n)-domination number, γd,n(Qn), the distance-d domination number γd(Qn) and the connected distance-d domination number γc,d(Qn) of ndimensional hypercube graphs Qn. We show that for 2 ≤ d ≤ bn/2c, and n ≥ 4, γd,n(Qn) ≤ 2n−2d+2, improving the bound of Xie and Xu [19]. We also show that γd(Qn) ≤ 2n−2d+2−r, for 2 − 1 ≤ n − 2d + 1 < 2 − 1, and γc,d(Qn) ≤ 2n−d, for ...

For any integer $kgeq 1$ and any graph $G=(V,E)$ with minimum degree at least $k-1$‎, ‎we define a‎ ‎function $f:Vrightarrow {0,1,2}$ as a Roman $k$-tuple dominating‎ ‎function on $G$ if for any vertex $v$ with $f(v)=0$ there exist at least‎ ‎$k$ and for any vertex $v$ with $f(v)neq 0$ at least $k-1$ vertices in its neighborhood with $f(w)=2$‎. ‎The minimum weight of a Roman $k$-tuple dominatin...

the inflation $g_{i}$ of a graph $g$ with $n(g)$ vertices and $m(g)$ edges is obtained from $g$ by replacing every vertex of degree $d$ of $g$ by a clique, which is isomorph to the complete graph $k_{d}$, and each edge $(x_{i},x_{j})$ of $g$ is replaced by an edge $(u,v)$ in such a way that $uin x_{i}$, $vin x_{j}$, and two different edges of $g$ are replaced by non-adjacent edges of $g_{i}$. t...

Domination in graphs has been an extensively researched branch of graph theory. Graph theory is one of the most flourishing branches of modern mathematics and computer applications. An introduction and an extensive overview on domination in graphs and related topics is surveyed and detailed in the two books by Haynes et al. [ 1, 2]. Recently dominating functions in domination theory have receiv...

We limit our discussion to graphs that are simple and finite of order . Although 8 we often identify a graph with its set of vertices, in cases where we need to be K explicit we write . A set of vertices of is said to Z ÐKÑ Q K dominate K provided each vertex of is either in or adjacent to a vertex of . K Q Q The domination number of is the minimum order of a dominating set. A K dominating prov...
