A signed k-partite graph (signed multipartite graph) is a k-partite graph in which each edge is assigned a positive or a negative sign. If G(V1, V2, · · · , Vk) is a signed k-partite graph with Vi = {vi1, vi2, · · · , vini}, 1 ≤ i ≤ k, the signed degree of vij is sdeg(vij) = dij = d + ij − d − ij , where 1 ≤ i ≤ k, 1 ≤ j ≤ ni and d + ij(d − ij) is the number of positive (negative) edges inciden...

We propose a memory efficient self-stabilizing protocol building k-independant dominating sets. A k-independant dominating set is a k-independant set and a k-dominating set. A set of nodes, I, is kindependent if the distance between any pair of nodes in I is at least k + 1. A set of nodes, D, is a k-dominating if every node is within distance k of a node of D. Our algorithm, named SID, is silen...

A Roman dominating function (RDF) on a graph $G$ is a function $f : V (G) to {0, 1, 2}$satisfying the condition that every vertex $u$ for which $f(u) = 0$ is adjacent to at least onevertex $v$ for which $f(v) = 2$. A Roman dominating function $f$ is called an outer-independentRoman dominating function (OIRDF) on $G$ if the set ${vin Vmid f(v)=0}$ is independent.The (outer-independent) Roman dom...

Definition of dominating function on a fractional graph G has been introduced. Fractional parameters such as domination number and upper defined. Domination with fuzzy Intuitionistic environment, have found by formulating Linear Programming Problem.

OF THE DISSERTATION Applications and Variations of Domination in Graphs by Paul Andrew Dreyer, Jr. Dissertation Director: Fred S. Roberts In a graph G = (V, E), S ⊆ V is a dominating set of G if every vertex is either in S or joined by an edge to some vertex in S. Many different types of domination have been researched extensively. This dissertation explores some new variations and applications...

Let G be a graph of order n. For every v ∈ V (G), let EG(v) denote the set of all edges incident with v. A signed k-submatching of G is a function f : E(G) −→ {−1, 1}, satisfying f(EG(v)) ≤ 1 for at least k vertices, where f(S) = ∑ e∈S f(e), for each S ⊆ E(G). The maximum of the value of f(E(G)), taken over all signed k-submatching f of G, is called the signed k-submatching number and is denote...
