We consider two general frameworks for multiple domination, which are called 〈r, s〉-domination and parametric domination. They generalise and unify {k}-domination, k-domination, total k-domination and k-tuple domination. In this paper, known upper bounds for the classical domination are generalised for the 〈r, s〉-domination and parametric domination numbers. These generalisations are based on t...

A dominating set of vertices S of a graph G is connected if the subgraph G[S] is connected. Let c(G) denote the size of any smallest connected dominating set in G. A graph G is k-connected-critical if c(G)= k, but if any edge e ∈ E(Ḡ) is added to G, then c(G+ e) k − 1. This is a variation on the earlier concept of criticality of edge addition with respect to ordinary domination where a graph G ...

An outer-connected dominating set for an arbitrary graph G is a set D̃ ⊆ V such that D̃ is a dominating set and the induced subgraph G[V \ D̃] be connected. In this paper, we focus on the outerconnected domination number of the product of graphs. We investigate the existence of outer-connected dominating set in lexicographic product and Corona of two arbitrary graphs, and we present upper bounds f...

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...

let $g=(v,e)$ be a simple graph. a set $dsubseteq v$ is adominating set of $g$ if every vertex in $vsetminus d$ has atleast one neighbor in $d$. the distance $d_g(u,v)$ between twovertices $u$ and $v$ is the length of a shortest $(u,v)$-path in$g$. an $(u,v)$-path of length $d_g(u,v)$ is called an$(u,v)$-geodesic. a set $xsubseteq v$ is convex in $g$ ifvertices from all $(a, b)$-geodesics belon...

we consider a dynamic domination problem for graphs in which an infinitesequence of attacks occur at vertices with guards and the guard at theattacked vertex is required to vacate the vertex by moving to a neighboringvertex with no guard. other guards are allowed to move at the same time, andbefore and after each attack and the resulting guard movements, the verticescontaining guards form a dom...
