To improve the efficiency of routing and broadcast and reducing energy consumption in the process of data transmission, calculating minimum connected dominating set is always used to construct virtual backbone network in wireless sensor networks. Calculating the minimum connected dominating set (MCDS) of plane graphs is a NPcomplete problem. In this paper, an algorithm leveraging 1hop neighborh...

Nodes of minimum connected dominating set (MCDS) form a virtual backbone in a wireless adhoc network. In this paper, a modified approach is presented to determine MCDS of an underlying graph of a Wireless Adhoc network. Simulation results for a variety of graphs indicate that the approach is efficient in determining the MCDS as compared to other existing techniques.

Let G = (V,E) be a graph. A set D ⊆ V is a total outer-connected dominating set of G if D is dominating and G[V −D] is connected. The total outer-connected domination number of G, denoted γtc(G), is the smallest cardinality of a total outer-connected dominating set of G. It is known that if T is a tree of order n ≥ 2, then γtc(T ) ≥ 2n 3 . We will provide a constructive characterization for tre...

If D is a dominating set and the induced subgraph G(D) is connected, then D is a connected dominating set. The minimum size of a connected dominating set in G is called connected domination number γc(G) of G. A graph G is called a perfect connected-dominant graph if γ(H) = γc(H) for each connected induced subgraph H of G. We prove that a graph is a perfect connected-dominant graph if and only i...

An asteroidal triple is a set of three independent vertices such that between any two of them there exists a path that avoids the neighl.)ourhood of the third. Graphs that do not. co~,tain an asteroidal triple are called asteroidal triple-free (AT-free) graphs. AT-free graphs strictly contain the well-known class of cocomparability graphs, and are not necessarily perfect.. We present efficient,...

In this paper empirical tests for the overreaction and underreaction hypothesis in the Brazilian stock market are presented. For these tests, due to the complexity of these phenomena, a new model based on the fuzzy set theory is proposed. It is shown that such model is strongly connected with two heuristics of behavioral finance: representativeness and anchoring. The proposed model is used to f...

Let G be a connected graph with vertex set V (G). A set S of vertices in G is called a weakly connected dominating set of G if (i) S is a dominating set of G and (ii) the graph obtained from G by removing all edges joining two vertices in V (G) \ S is connected. A weakly connected dominating set S of G is said to be minimum or a γw-set if |S| is minimum among all weakly connected dominating set...

A graph G is 3-domination-critical (3-critical, for short), if its domination number γ is 3 and the addition of any edge decreases γ by 1. In this paper, we show that every 3-critical graph with independence number 4 and minimum degree 3 is Hamilton-connected. Combining the result with those in [2], [4] and [5], we solve the following conjecture: a connected 3critical graph G is Hamilton-connec...
