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...

a set $s$ of vertices in a graph $g=(v,e)$ is called a total$k$-distance dominating set if every vertex in $v$ is withindistance $k$ of a vertex in $s$. a graph $g$ is total $k$-distancedomination-critical if $gamma_{t}^{k} (g - x) < gamma_{t}^{k}(g)$ for any vertex $xin v(g)$. in this paper,we investigate some results on total $k$-distance domination-critical of graphs.

A tree T , in an edge-colored graph G, is called a rainbow tree if no two edges of T are assigned the same color. A k-rainbow coloring of G is an edge coloring of G having the property that for every set S of k vertices of G, there exists a rainbow tree T in G such that S ⊆ V (T ). The minimum number of colors needed in a k-rainbow coloring of G is the k-rainbow index of G , denoted by rxk(G). ...

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 ...

Let $kgeq 1$ be an integer, and $G=(V,E)$ be a finite and simplegraph. The closed neighborhood $N_G[e]$ of an edge $e$ in a graph$G$ is the set consisting of $e$ and all edges having a commonend-vertex with $e$. A signed Roman edge $k$-dominating function(SREkDF) on a graph $G$ is a function $f:E rightarrow{-1,1,2}$ satisfying the conditions that (i) for every edge $e$of $G$, $sum _{xin N[e]} f...

Let k be a positive integer and G = (V,E) be a graph of minimum degree at least k − 1. A function f : V → {−1, 1} is called a signed k-dominating function of G if ∑ u∈NG[v] f(u) ≥ k for all v ∈ V . The signed k-domination number of G is the minimum value of ∑ v∈V f(v) taken over all signed k-dominating functions of G. The signed total k-dominating function and signed total k-domination number o...

a 2-emph{rainbow dominating function} (2rdf) on a graph $g=(v, e)$ is afunction $f$ from the vertex set $v$ to the set of all subsets of the set${1,2}$ such that for any vertex $vin v$ with $f(v)=emptyset$ thecondition $bigcup_{uin n(v)}f(u)={1,2}$ is fulfilled. a 2rdf $f$ isindependent (i2rdf) if no two vertices assigned nonempty sets are adjacent.the emph{weight} of a 2rdf $f$ is the value $o...

Let k ∈ N and let G be a graph. A function f : V (G) → 2 is a rainbow function if, for every vertex x with f(x) = ∅, f(N(x)) = [k]. The rainbow domination number γkr(G) is the minimum of ∑ x∈V (G) |f(x)| over all rainbow functions. We investigate the rainbow domination problem for some classes of perfect graphs.
