a function $f:v(g)rightarrow {-1,0,1}$ is a {em minusdominating function} if for every vertex $vin v(g)$, $sum_{uinn[v]}f(u)ge 1$. a minus dominating function $f$ of $g$ is calleda {em global minus dominating function} if $f$ is also a minusdominating function of the complement $overline{g}$ of $g$. the{em global minus domination number} $gamma_{g}^-(g)$ of $g$ isdefined as $gamma_{g}^-(g)=min{...

the broadcast domination number of the cartesian product of two cycles is completely determined.

A convex partition with respect to a point set S is a planar subdivision whose vertices are the points of S, where the boundary of the unbounded outer face is the boundary of the convex hull of S, and every bounded interior face is a convex polygon. A minimum convex partition with respect to S is a convex partition of S such that the number of convex polygons is minimised. In this paper, we wil...

In this paper, we provide formal definitions for object space, space subdivision and ray tracing. We also introduce concept models such as ordered space subdivisions and ordered visualization. From these works, we can evaluate the correctness and performance of our space subdivision scheme for volume visualization. With these definitions, we also analyze some established space subdivision appro...

for a graph $g$ let $gamma (g)$ be its domination number. we define a graph g to be (i) a hypo-efficient domination graph (or a hypo-$mathcal{ed}$ graph) if $g$ has no efficient dominating set (eds) but every graph formed by removing a single vertex from $g$ has at least one eds, and (ii) a hypo-unique domination graph (a hypo-$mathcal{ud}$ graph) if $g$ has at least two minimum dominating sets...

a set $s$ of vertices in a graph $g$ is a dominating set if every vertex of $v-s$ is adjacent to some vertex in $s$. the domination number $gamma(g)$ is the minimum cardinality of a dominating set in $g$. the annihilation number $a(g)$ is the largest integer $k$ such that the sum of the first $k$ terms of the non-decreasing degree sequence of $g$ is at most the number of edges in $g$. in this p...

Convex hulls are fundamental geometric tools used in a number of algorithms. This paper presents a fast, simple to implement and robust Smart Convex Hull (S-CH) algorithm for computing the convex hull of a set of points in . This algorithm is based on “spherical” space subdivision. The main idea of the S-CH algorithm is to eliminate as many input points as possible before the convex hull constr...

There are many space subdivision and space partitioning techniques used in many algorithms to speed up computations. They mostly rely on orthogonal space subdivision, resp. using hierarchical data structures, e.g. BSP trees, quadtrees, octrees, kd-trees, bounding volume hierarchies etc. However in some applications a non-orthogonal space subdivision can offer new ways for actual speed up. In th...
