The aim of this paper is to obtain closed formulas for the perfect domination number, Roman number and lexicographic product graphs. We show that these can be obtained relatively easily case first two parameters. picture quite different when it concerns number. In case, we general bounds then give sufficient and/or necessary conditions achieved. also discuss graphs characterize where equals

A set D of vertices in a graph G = (V, E) is a weakly connected dominating set of G if D is dominating in G and the subgraph weakly induced by D is connected. The weakly connected domination number of G is the minimum cardinality of a weakly connected dominating set of G. The weakly connected domination subdivision number of a connected graph G is the minimum number of edges that must be subdiv...

A set S of vertices of a graph G = (V, E) is a dominating set if every vertex of V (G) \ S is adjacent to some vertex in S. The domination number γ (G) is the minimum cardinality of a dominating set of G. The domination subdivision number sdγ (G) is the minimum number of edges that must be subdivided in order to increase the domination number. Velammal showed that for any tree T of order at lea...

Define a Roman dominating function (RDF) of a graph G to be a function f : V (G) → {0, 1, 2} such that every u with f(u) = 0 has a neighbor v with f(v) = 2. The weight of f , w(f), is ∑ v∈V (G) f(v). The Roman domination number of G, γR(G), is the minimum weight of an RDF of G. It is easy to see that γ(G) ≤ γR(G) ≤ 2γ(G), where γ(G) is the domination number of G. In this paper, we determine pro...

A set S of vertices of a graph G = (V, E) without isolated vertex is a total dominating set if every vertex of V (G) is adjacent to some vertex in S. The total domination number γt(G) is the minimum cardinality of a total dominating set of G. The total domination subdivision number sdγt(G) is the minimum number of edges that must be subdivided (each edge in G can be subdivided at most once) in ...

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 ...

Recent articles by ReVelle [20, 21] in the Johns Hopkins Magazines suggested a new variation of domination called Roman domination, see also [22] for an integer programming formulation of the problem. Since then, there have been several articles on Roman domination and its variations [2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 11, 12, 14, 15, 16, 18, 24, 23, 25]. Emperor Constantine had the requirement that an army or leg...

For a graph property P and a graph G, a subset S of the vertices of G is a P-set if the subgraph induced by S has the property P. A P-Roman dominating function on a graph G is a labeling f : V (G) → {0, 1, 2} such that every vertex with label 0 has a neighbor with label 2 and the set of all vertices with label 1 or 2 is a P-set. The P-Roman domination number γPR(G) of G is the minimum of Σv∈V (...
