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

This paper discusses a distance guarding concept on triangulation graphs, which can be associated with distance domination and distance vertex cover. We show how these subjects are interconnected and provide tight bounds for any n-vertex maximal outerplanar graph: the 2d-guarding number, g2d(n) = ⌊ n 5 ⌋; the 2d-distance domination number, γ2d(n) = ⌊ n 5 ⌋; and the 2d-distance vertex cover numb...

In a graph, vertex dominates itself and its neighbors. A subset S of vertices graph G is double dominating set if every at least twice. The domination number γ ×2 ( ) the minimum cardinality . this paper, we prove that maximal outerplanar order n bounded above by + k /2, where pairs consecutive degree two with distance 3 on outer cycle. We also ×2( ≤ 5 /8 for Hamiltonian planar ≥ 7.

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...

In this paper, we survey some new results in four areas of domination in graphs, namely: (1) the toughness and matching structure of graphs having domination number 3 and which are “critical” in the sense that if one adds any missing edge, the domination number falls to 2; (2) the matching structure of graphs having domination number 3 and which are “critical” in the sense that if one deletes a...

In a graph G, a vertex dominates itself and its neighbors. A subset S ⊆ V (G) is a 2-dominating set of G if S dominates every vertex of V (G) \ S at least twice. The 2-domination number γ2(G) is the minimum cardinality of a 2-dominating set of G. The 2-domination subdivision number sdγ2(G) is the minimum number of edges that must be subdivided (each edge in G can be subdivided at most once) in ...
