A signed Roman dominating function (SRDF) on a graph G is a function f : V (G) → {−1, 1, 2} such that u∈N [v] f(u) ≥ 1 for every v ∈ V (G), and every vertex u ∈ V (G) for which f(u) = −1 is adjacent to at least one vertex w for which f(w) = 2. A set {f1, f2, . . . , fd} of distinct signed Roman dominating functions on G with the property that ∑d i=1 fi(v) ≤ 1 for each v ∈ V (G), is called a sig...

We investigate the apparent difficulty of finding domatic partitions in graphs using tools from computability theory. We consider nicely presented (i.e., computable) infinite graphs and show that even if the domatic number is known, there might not be any algorithm for producing a domatic partition of optimal size. However, we prove that smaller domatic partitions can be constructed if we restr...

For a graph $G = (V, E)$, a partition $pi = {V_1,$ $V_2,$ $ldots,$ $V_k}$ of the vertex set $V$ is an textit{upper domatic partition} if $V_i$ dominates $V_j$ or $V_j$ dominates $V_i$ or both for every $V_i, V_j in pi$, whenever $i neq j$. The textit{upper domatic number} $D(G)$ is the maximum order of an upper domatic partition. We study the properties of upper domatic number and propose an up...

The paper studies the domatic numbers and the total domatic numbers of graphs having cut-vertices. We shall study the domatic number d(G) and the total domatic number d t (G) of a graph G. A survey of the related theory is given in 3]. We consider nite, undirected graphs without loops or multiple edges. A subset D of the vertex set V (G) of a graph G is called dominating (total dominating), if ...

Let $A$ and $B$ be two disjoint subsets of the vertex set $V$ of a graph $G$. The set $A$ is said to dominate $B$, denoted by $A rightarrow B$, if for every vertex $u in B$ there exists a vertex $v in A$ such that $uv in E(G)$. For any graph $G$, a partition $pi = {V_1,$ $V_2,$ $ldots,$ $V_p}$ of the vertex set $V$ is an textit{upper domatic partition} if $V_i rightarrow V_j$ or $V_j rightarrow...

A dominating set of a graph G =( P’, E) is a subset D of Vsuch that every vertex not in D is adjacent to some vertex in D. The domatic number d(G) of G is the maximum positive integer k such that V can be partitioned into k pairwise disjoint dominating sets. The purpose of this paper is to study the domatic numbers of graphs that are obtained from small graphs by performing graph operations, su...
