A two-valued function f defined on the vertices of a graph G = (V,E), f : V → {−1, 1}, is a signed total dominating function if the sum of its function values over any open neighborhood is at least one. That is, for every v ∈ V, f(N(v)) ≥ 1, where N(v) consists of every vertex adjacent to v. The weight of a total signed dominating function is f(V ) = ∑ f(v), over all vertices v ∈ V . The total ...

For any integer k ≥ 1, a signed (total) k-dominating function is a function f : V (G) → {−1, 1} satisfying w∈N [v] f(w) ≥ k ( P w∈N(v) f(w) ≥ k) for every v ∈ V (G), where N(v) = {u ∈ V (G)|uv ∈ E(G)} and N [v] = N(v)∪{v}. The minimum of the values ofv∈V (G) f(v), taken over all signed (total) k-dominating functions f, is called the signed (total) k-domination number and is denoted by γkS(G) (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...

A function f : V (G) → {+1,−1} defined on the vertices of a graph G is a signed dominating function if for any vertex v the sum of function values over its closed neighborhood is at least 1. The signed domination number γs(G) of G is the minimum weight of a signed dominating function on G. By simply changing “{+1,−1}” in the above definition to “{+1, 0,−1}”, we can define the minus dominating f...

The signed domination number γs(G) of G is the minimum weight of a 6 signed dominating function on G.

Let $D$ be a finite and simple digraph with vertex set $V(D)$. A weak signed Roman dominating function (WSRDF) on is $f:V(D)\rightarrow\{-1,1,2\}$ satisfying the condition that $\sum_{x\in N^-[v]}f(x)\ge 1$ for each $v\in V(D)$, where $N^-[v]$ consists of $v$ allvertices from which arcs go into $v$. The weight WSRDF $f$ $\sum_{v\in V(D)}f(v)$. domination number $\gamma_{wsR}(D)$ minimum $D$. In...
