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 ...

In this paper, we investigate domination number as well as signed domination numbers of Cay(G : S) for all cyclic group G of order n, where n in {p^m; pq} and S = { a^i : i in B(1; n)}. We also introduce some families of connected regular graphs gamma such that gamma_S(Gamma) in {2,3,4,5 }.
