A set of vertices in a graph is a dominating set if every vertex outside the set has a neighbor in the set. A dominating set is connected if the subgraph induced by its vertices is connected. The connected domatic partition problem asks for a partition of the nodes into connected dominating sets. The connected domatic number of a graph is the size of a largest connected domatic partition and it...

A subset D of the vertex set V (G) of a graph G is called dominating in G, if each vertex of G either is in D, or is adjacent to a vertex of D. If moreover the subgraph 〈D〉 of G induced by D is regular of degree 1, then D is called an induced-paired dominating set in G. A partition of V (G), each of whose classes is an induced-paired dominating set in G, is called an induced-paired domatic part...

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...

We resolve the problem posed as the main open question in [4]: letting δ(G), ∆(G) and D(G) respectively denote the minimum degree, maximum degree, and domatic number (defined below) of an undirected graph G = (V,E), we show that D(G) ≥ (1−o(1))δ(G)/ ln(∆(G)), where the “o(1)” term goes to zero as ∆(G) → ∞. A dominating set of G is any set S ⊆ V such that for all v ∈ V , either v ∈ S or some nei...

Given a graph G, we say that a subset D of the vertex set V is a dominating set if it is near all the vertices, in that every vertex outside of D is adjacent to a vertex in D. A domatic k-partition of G is a partition of V into k dominating sets. In this paper, we will consider issues of computability related to domatic partitions of computable graphs. Our investigation will center on answering...

An extremely simple, linear time algorithm is given for constructing a domatic partition in totally balanced hypergraphs. This simpli es and generalizes previous algorithms for interval and strongly chordal graphs. On the other hand, the domatic number problem is shown to be NP-complete for several families of perfect graphs, including chordal and bipartite graphs.

Let G be a graph. A total dominating set of G is a set S of vertices of G such that every vertex is adjacent to at least one vertex in S. The total domatic number of a graph is the maximum number of total dominating sets which partition the vertex set of G. In this paper we would like to characterize the cubic graphs with total domatic number at least two.

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...

We investigate experimentally the Domatic Partition (DP) problem, the Independent Domatic Partition (IDP) problem and the Idomatic partition problem in Random Geometric Graphs (RGGs). In particular, we model these problems as Integer Linear Programs (ILPs), solve them optimally, and show on a large set of samples that RGGs are independent domatically full most likely (over 93% of the cases) and...
