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...

The k-tuple domination problem, for a fixed positive integer k, is to find a minimum size vertex subset such that every vertex in the graph is dominated by at least k vertices in this set. The case when k 2 is called 2-tuple domination problem or double domination problem. In this paper, the 2-tuple domination problem is studied on interval graphs from an algorithmic point of view, which takes ...

For a fixed positive integer k, a k-tuple total dominating set of a graph G is a subset D ⊆ V (G) such that every vertex of G is adjacent to at least k vertices in D. The k-tuple total domination problem is to determine a minimum k-tuple total dominating set of G. This paper studies k-tuple total domination from an algorithmic point of view. In particular, we present a linear-time algorithm for...

Let k be a positive integer. A subset S of V (G) in a graph G is a k-tuple total dominating set of G if every vertex of G has at least k neighbors in S. The k-tuple total domination number γ×k,t(G) of G is the minimum cardinality of a k-tuple total dominating set of G. In this paper for a given graph G with minimum degree at least k, we find some sharp lower and upper bounds on the k-tuple tota...

The inflated graph GI of a graph G with n(G) vertices is obtained from G by replacing every vertex of degree d of G by a clique, which is isomorph to the complete graph Kd, and each edge (xi, xj) of G is replaced by an edge (u, v) in such a way that u ∈ Xi, v ∈ Xj , and two different edges of G are replaced by non-adjacent edges of GI . For integer k ≥ 1, the k-tuple total domination number γ ×...

In this paper, we present new upper bounds for the global domination and Roman domination numbers and also prove that these results are asymptotically best possible. Moreover, we give upper bounds for the restrained domination and total restrained domination numbers for large classes of graphs, and show that, for almost all graphs, the restrained domination number is equal to the domination num...
