‎the annihilator graph $ag(r)$ of a commutative ring $r$ is a simple undirected graph with the vertex set $z(r)^*$ and two distinct vertices are adjacent if and only if $ann(x) cup ann(y)$ $ neq $ $ann(xy)$‎. ‎in this paper we give the sufficient condition for a graph $ag(r)$ to be complete‎. ‎we characterize rings for which $ag(r)$ is a regular graph‎, ‎we show that $gamma (ag(r))in {1,2}$ and...

Given a graph \(G=(V(G), E(G))\), the size of minimum dominating set, paired and total set G are denoted by \(\gamma (G)\), _{pr}(G)\), _{t}(G)\), respectively. For positive integer k, k-packing in is \(S \subseteq V(G)\) such that for every pair distinct vertices u v S, distance between at least \(k+1\). The number order largest \(\rho _{k}(G)\). It well known _{pr}(G) \le 2\gamma (G)\). In th...

The open neighborhood of a vertex $v$ of a graph $G$ is the set $N(v)$ consisting of all vertices adjacent to $v$ in $G$. For $Dsubseteq V(G)$, we define $overline{D}=V(G)setminus D$. A set $Dsubseteq V(G)$ is called a super dominating set of $G$ if for every vertex $uin overline{D}$, there exists $vin D$ such that $N(v)cap overline{D}={u}$. The super domination number of $G$ is the minimum car...

‎A Roman dominating function (RDF) on a graph G=(V,E) is a function  f : V → {0, 1, 2}  such that every vertex u for which f(u)=0 is‎ ‎adjacent to at least one vertex v for which f(v)=2‎. ‎An RDF f is called‎‎an outer independent Roman dominating function (OIRDF) if the set of‎‎vertices assigned a 0 under f is an independent set‎. ‎The weight of an‎‎OIRDF is the sum of its function values over ...

The domination number of a graph is the cardinality of a smallest subset of its vertex set with the property that each vertex of the graph is in the subset or adjacent to a vertex in the subset. This graph parameter has been studied extensively since its introduction during the early 1960s and finds application in the generic setting where the vertices of the graph denote physical entities that...

Let G be a graph. The independence-domination number γ(G) is the maximum over all independent sets I in G of the minimal number of vertices needed to dominate I. In this paper we investigate the computational complexity of γ(G) for graphs in several graph classes related to cographs. We present an exact exponential algorithm. We also present a PTAS for planar graphs.

for any $k in mathbb{n}$, the $k$-subdivision of graph $g$ is a simple graph $g^{frac{1}{k}}$, which is constructed by replacing each edge of $g$ with a path of length $k$. in [moharram n. iradmusa, on colorings of graph fractional powers, discrete math., (310) 2010, no. 10-11, 1551-1556] the $m$th power of the $n$-subdivision of $g$ has been introduced as a fractional power of $g$, denoted by ...

We prove an exponential concentration bound for cover times of general graphs in terms of the Gaussian free field, extending the work of Ding, Lee, and Peres [8] and Ding [7]. The estimate is asymptotically sharp as the ratio of hitting time to cover time goes to zero. The bounds are obtained by showing a stochastic domination in the generalized second Ray-Knight theorem, which was shown to imp...
