The line graph of a graph with signed edges carries vertex signs. A vertex-signed graph is consistent if every circle (cycle, circuit) has positive vertex-sign product. Acharya, Acharya, and Sinha recently characterized line-consistent signed graphs, i.e., edge-signed graphs whose line graphs, with the naturally induced vertex signature, are consistent. Their proof applies Hoede’s relatively di...

For every positive integer k, a set S of vertices in a graph G = (V;E) is a k- tuple dominating set of G if every vertex of V -S is adjacent to at least k vertices and every vertex of S is adjacent to at least k - 1 vertices in S. The minimum cardinality of a k-tuple dominating set of G is the k-tuple domination number of G. When k = 1, a k-tuple domination number is the well-studied domination...

Say that an edge of a graph G dominates itself and every other edge adjacent to it. An edge dominating set of a graph G = (V,E) is a subset of edges E′ ⊆ E which dominates all edges of G. In particular, if every edge of G is dominated by exactly one edge of E′ then E′ is a dominating induced matching. It is known that not every graph admits a dominating induced matching, while the problem to de...

A set S ⊆ V is a global dominating set of a graph G = (V,E) if S is a dominating set of G and G, where G is the complement graph of G. The global domination number γg(G) equals the minimum cardinality of a global dominating set of G. The square graph G of a graph G is the graph with vertex set V and two vertices are adjacent in G if they are joined in G by a path of length one or two. In this p...

Graph coverings are known to induce surjections of their critical groups. Here we describe the kernels of these morphisms in terms of data parametrizing the covering. Regular coverings are parametrized by voltage graphs, and the above kernel can be identified with a naturally defined voltage graph critical group. For double covers, the voltage graph is a signed graph, and the theory takes a par...

Let $G = (V, E)$ be a simple graph of order $n$. The total dominating set is a subset $D$ of $V$ that every vertex of $V$ is adjacent to some vertices of $D$. The total domination number of $G$ is equal to minimum cardinality of total dominating set in $G$ and denoted by $gamma_t(G)$. The total domination polynomial of $G$ is the polynomial $D_t(G,x)=sum d_t(G,i)$, where $d_t(G,i)$ is the numbe...

Let G = (V,E) be a graph. A subset D ⊆ V is a dominating set if every vertex not in D is adjacent to a vertex in D. A dominating set D is called a total dominating set if every vertex in D is adjacent to a vertex in D. The domination (resp. total domination) number of G is the smallest cardinality of a dominating (resp. total dominating) set of G. The bondage (resp. total bondage) number of a n...

Let G = (V , E) be a graph. A subset D ⊆ V is a dominating set if every vertex not in D is adjacent to a vertex in D. A dominating set D is called a total dominating set if every vertex in D is adjacent to a vertex in D. The domination (resp. total domination) number of G is the smallest cardinality of a dominating (resp. total dominating) set of G. The bondage (resp. total bondage) number of a...

A dominating set D of a graph G = (V,E) is a subset of vertices such that every vertex in V \D has at least one neighbour in D. Moreover if D is an independent set, i.e. no vertices in D are pairwise adjacent, then D is said to be an independent dominating set. Finding a minimum independent dominating set in a graph is an NP-hard problem. We give an algorithm computing a minimum independent dom...

Let D be the minimum dominating set of intuitionistic fuzzy graph G. The minimum intuitionistic fuzzy cardinality of all edge dominating set of intuitionistic fuzzy graph G is known as edge domination number and it is denoted by γe(G). In this Paper, we initiate some definitions onedge dominating set concerning intuitionistic fuzzy sets. Further, we investigate some results onedge domination nu...
