In this paper, we survey some new results in four areas of domination in graphs, namely: (1) the toughness and matching structure of graphs having domination number 3 and which are “critical” in the sense that if one adds any missing edge, the domination number falls to 2; (2) the matching structure of graphs having domination number 3 and which are “critical” in the sense that if one deletes a...

Given a graph G = (V, E), the subdivision of an edge e = uv ∈ E(G) means the substitution of the edge e by a vertex x and the new edges ux and xv. The domination subdivision number of a graph G is the minimum number of edges of G which must be subdivided (where each edge can be subdivided at most once) in order to increase the domination number. Also, the domination multisubdivision number of G...

In this article we study some variants of the domination concept attending to the connectivity of the subgraph generated by the dominant set. This study is restricted to maximal outerplanar graphs. We establish tight combinatorial bounds for connected domination, semitotal domination, independent domination and weakly connected domination for any n-vertex maximal outerplaner graph.

In this paper, we introduce the concept of k-power domination which is a common generalization of domination and power domination. We extend several known results for power domination to k-power domination. Concerning the complexity of the k-power domination problem, we first show that deciding whether a graph admits a k-power dominating set of size at most t is NP-complete for chordal graphs a...

In this paper, we provide a new upper bound for the α-domination number. This result generalises the well-known Caro-Roditty bound for the domination number of a graph. The same probabilistic construction is used to generalise another well-known upper bound for the classical domination in graphs. We also prove similar upper bounds for the α-rate domination number, which combines the concepts of...

This thesis is concerned with the definition and the study of properties of homotopic Hopf-Galois extensions in the category Ch 0 k of chain complexes over a field k, equipped with its projective model structure. Given a differential graded k-Hopf algebra H of finite type, we define a homotopic H-Hopf-Galois extension to be a morphism ' : B ! A of augmented H-comodule dg-k-algebras, where B is ...

Let γ(G) and ι(G) be the domination and independent domination numbers of a graph G, respectively. Introduced by Sumner and Moorer [23], a graph G is domination perfect if γ(H) = ι(H) for every induced subgraph H ⊆ G. In 1991, Zverovich and Zverovich [26] proposed a characterization of domination perfect graphs in terms of forbidden induced subgraphs. Fulman [15] noticed that this characterizat...
