The signed edge domination number of a graph is an edge variant of the signed domination number. The closed neighbourhood NG[e] of an edge e in a graph G is the set consisting of e and of all edges having a common end vertex with e. Let f be a mapping of the edge set E(G) of G into the set {−1, 1}. If ∑ x∈N [e] f(x) 1 for each e ∈ E(G), then f is called a signed edge dominating function on G. T...

Let $D$ be a finite and simple digraph with vertex set $V(D)$. A weak signed Roman dominating function (WSRDF) on is $f:V(D)\rightarrow\{-1,1,2\}$ satisfying the condition that $\sum_{x\in N^-[v]}f(x)\ge 1$ for each $v\in V(D)$, where $N^-[v]$ consists of $v$ allvertices from which arcs go into $v$. The weight WSRDF $f$ $\sum_{v\in V(D)}f(v)$. domination number $\gamma_{wsR}(D)$ minimum $D$. In...

Let G = (V , E) be a simple graph on vertex set V and define a function f : V → {−1,1}. The function f is a signed dominating function if for every vertex x ∈ V , the closed neighborhood of x contains more vertices with function value 1 than with −1. The signed domination number of G, γs(G), is the minimum weight of a signed dominating function on G. We give a sharp lower bound on the signed do...

Let k ≥ 1 be an integer, and let D = (V, A) be a finite and simple digraph in which dD(v) ≥ k for all v ∈ V . A function f : V −→ {−1, 1} is called a signed total k-dominating function (STkDF) if f(N−(v)) ≥ k for each vertex v ∈ V . The weight w(f) of f is defined by w(f) = ∑ v∈V f(v). The signed total k-domination number for a digraph D is γ kS(D) = min{w(f) | f is a STkDF of D}. In this paper...

A signed dominating function of a graph G with vertex set V is a function f : V → {−1, 1} such that for every vertex v in V the sum of the values of f at v and at every vertex u adjacent to v is at least 1. The weight of f is the sum of the values of f at every vertex of V . The signed domination number of G is the minimum weight of a signed dominating function of G. In this paper, we study the...

A function f : V (G) → {0, 1, 2} is a Roman dominating function for a graph G = (V,E) if for every vertex v with f(v) = 0, there exists a vertex w ∈ N(v) with f(w) = 2. Emperor Constantine had the requirement that an army or legion could be sent from its home to defend a neighboring location only if there was a second army which would stay and protect the home. Thus, there are two types of armi...

A total dominating set of a graph G is a set D of vertices of G such that every vertex of G has a neighbor in D. A locating-total dominating set of G is a total dominating set D of G with the additional property that every two distinct vertices outside D have distinct neighbors in D; that is, for distinct vertices u and v outside D, N(u) ∩D 6= N(v) ∩D where N(u) denotes the open neighborhood of...
