In minimum k-tuple total dominating set problem (Min k-Tuple Total Dom Set), it is required to find a k-tuple total dominating set of minimum cardinality and Decide Min k-Tuple ...

In a graph G, a vertex is said to dominate itself and all vertices adjacent to it. For a positive integer k, the k-tuple domination number γ×k(G) of G is the minimum size of a subset D of V (G) such that every vertex in G is dominated by at least k vertices in D. To generalize/improve known upper bounds for the k-tuple domination number, this paper establishes that for any positive integer k an...

Let G = (V,E) be a graph. A set S ⊆ V is a total restrained dominating set if every vertex is adjacent to a vertex in S and every vertex of V − S is adjacent to a vertex in V − S. The total restrained domination number of G, denoted by γtr(G), is the smallest cardinality of a total restrained dominating set of G. We show that if T is a tree of order n, then γtr(T ) ≥ d(n + 2)/2e. Moreover, we s...

Let k ≥ 1 be an integer and G a graph of minimum degree δ ( ) − 1. A set D ⊆ V is said to -tuple dominating if | N [ v ] ∩ for every vertex ∈ ), where represents the closed neighbourhood . The cardinality among all sets domination number In this paper, we continue with study classical parameter in graphs. particular, provide some relationships that exist between other parameters, like multiple ...

Let G = (V,E) be a graph. A set S ⊆ V is a restrained dominating set if every vertex not in S is adjacent to a vertex in S and to a vertex in V \ S. The restrained domination number of G, denoted by γr(G), is the minimum cardinality of a restrained dominating set of G. A set S ⊆ V is a total dominating set if every vertex in V is adjacent to a vertex in S. The total domination number of a graph...
