In a graph G=(V,E), where every vertex is assigned 0, 1 or 2, f an assignment such that 0 has at least one neighbor 2 and all vertices labeled by are independent, then called outer independent Roman dominating function (OIRDF). The domination strengthened if 1, 3, each two neighbors double (OIDRDF). weight of (OIDRDF) OIRDF the sum f(v) for v?V. (double) number (?oidR(G)) ?oiR(G) minimum taken ...

Let G = (V, E) be a graph without isolated vertices. A matching in G is a set of independent edges in G. A perfect matching M in G is a matching such that every vertex of G is incident to an edge of M . A set S ⊆ V is a paired-dominating set of G if every vertex not in S is adjacent to a vertex in S, and if the subgraph induced by S contains a perfect matching. The paired-domination problem is ...

Eternal and m-eternal domination are concerned with using mobile guards to protect a graph against infinite sequences of attacks at vertices. Eternal domination allows one guard to move per attack, whereas more than one guard may move per attack in the m-eternal domination model. Inequality chains consisting of the domination, eternal domination, m-eternal domination, independence, and clique c...

For any k ∈ N, the k-subdivision of a graph G is a simple graph G 1 k , which is constructed by replacing each edge of G with a path of length k. In [Moharram N. Iradmusa, On colorings of graph fractional powers, Discrete Math., (310) 2010, No. 10-11, 1551-1556] the mth power of the n-subdivision of G has been introduced as a fractional power of G, denoted by G m n . In this regard, we investig...

The following inequality chain has been extensively studied in the discrete mathematical literature: i r ~ y ~ i ~ f l ~ F ~IR, where ir and IR denote the lower and upper irredundance numbers of a graph, 2: and F denote the lower and upper domination numbers of a graph, i denotes the independent domination number and fl denotes the vertex independence number of a graph. More than one hundred pa...

This paper first presents a unified approach to design efficient algorithms for the weighted domination problem and its three variants, i.e., the weighted independent, connected, and total domination problems, on interval graphs. Given an interval model with endpoints sorted, these algorithms run in time O(n) or O(n log logn) where n is the number of vertices. The results are then extended to s...

A dominating set in a graph G is a set S of vertices such that every vertex outside S has a neighbor in S; the domination number γ(G) is the minimum size of such a set. The independent domination number, written i(G), is the minimum size of a dominating set that also induces no edges. Henning and Southey conjectured that if G is a connected cubic graph with sufficiently many vertices, then i(G)...
