Let / be an integer-valued function defined on the vertex set V(G) of a graph G. A subset D of V(G) is an /-dominating set if each vertex x outside D is adjacent to at least f(x) vertices in D. The minimum number of vertices in an /-dominating set is denned to be the /-domination number, denoted by 7/(G). In a similar way one can define the connected and total /-domination numbers 7 C| /(G) and...

For any integer $kgeq 1$ and any graph $G=(V,E)$ with minimum degree at least $k-1$‎, ‎we define a‎ ‎function $f:Vrightarrow {0,1,2}$ as a Roman $k$-tuple dominating‎ ‎function on $G$ if for any vertex $v$ with $f(v)=0$ there exist at least‎ ‎$k$ and for any vertex $v$ with $f(v)neq 0$ at least $k-1$ vertices in its neighborhood with $f(w)=2$‎. ‎The minimum weight of a Roman $k$-tuple dominatin...

Domination and 2-domination numbers are defined only for graphs with non-isolated vertices. In a Graph G = (V, E) each vertex is said to dominate every in its closed neighborhood. graph G, subset S of V(G) called 2-dominating set if v ∈ V, V-S has atleast two neighbors S. The smallest cardinality known as the number γ2(G). this paper, we find some special also graphs.

A caterpillar is a tree with the property that after deleting all its vertices of degree 1 a simple path is obtained. The signed 2-domination number γ s (G) and the signed total 2-domination number γ st(G) of a graph G are variants of the signed domination number γs(G) and the signed total domination number γst(G). Their values for caterpillars are studied.
