Let G^s be a signed graph, where G = (V;E) is the underlying simple graph and s : E(G) to {+, -} is the sign function on E(G). In this paper, we obtain k-th signed spectral moment and k-th signed Laplacian spectral moment of Gs together with coefficients of their signed characteristic polynomial and signed Laplacian characteristic polynomial are calculated.

Let G be a finite and simple graph with vertex set V (G), and let f : V (G) → {−1, 1} be a two-valued function. If ∑ x∈N[v] f (x) ≥ 1 for each v ∈ V (G), where N[v] is the closed neighborhood of v, then f is a signed dominating function on G. A set {f1, f2, . . . , fd} of signed dominating functions on Gwith the property that ∑d i=1 fi(x) ≤ 1 for each x ∈ V (G), is called a signed dominating fa...

We prove that line graphs and path graphs have bounded neighbourhood Helly. As a consequence, we obtain output-polynomial time algorithms for enumerating the set of minimal dominating sets of line graphs and path graphs. Therefore, there exists an output-polynomial time algorithm that enumerates the set of minimal edge-dominating sets of any graph.

In a graph , a set is said to be total dominating if every is adjacent to some member of . When the graph represents a communication network, a total dominating set corresponds to a collection of servers having a certain desirable backup property, namely, that every server is adjacent to some other server. Selfstabilization, introduced by Dijkstra [1, 2], is the most inclusive approach to fault...

An output-polynomial algorithm for the listing of minimal dominating sets in graphs is a challenging open problem and is known to be equivalent to the well-known Transversal problem which asks for an output-polynomial algorithm for listing the set of minimal hitting sets in hypergraphs. We give a polynomial delay algorithm to list the set of minimal dominating sets in chordal graphs, an importa...

In this paper, we are interested in the enumeration of minimal dominating sets in graphs. A polynomial delay algorithm with polynomial space in split graphs is presented. We then introduce a notion of maximal extension (a set of edges added to the graph) that keeps invariant the set of minimal dominating sets, and show that graphs with extensions as split graphs are exactly the ones having chor...

An upper dominating set in a graph is a minimal (with respect to set inclusion) dominating set of maximum cardinality. The problem of finding an upper dominating set is generally NP-hard, but can be solved in polynomial time in some restricted graph classes, such as P4-free graphs or 2K2-free graphs. For classes defined by finitely many forbidden induced subgraphs, the boundary separating diffi...

Let D be a finite and simple digraph with vertex set V (D), and let f : V (D) → {−1, 1} be a two-valued function. If k ≥ 1 is an integer and ∑ x∈N−[v] f(x) ≥ k for each v ∈ V (D), where N−[v] consists of v and all vertices of D from which arcs go into v, then f is a signed k-dominating function on D. A set {f1, f2, . . . , fd} of distinct signed k-dominating functions of D with the property tha...

We address the problem of computing a Minimal Dominating Set in highly dynamic distributed systems. We assume weak connectivity, i.e., the network may be disconnected at each time instant and topological changes are unpredictable. We make only weak assumptions on the communication: every process is infinitely often able to communicate with other processes (not necessarily directly). Our contrib...
