For a given graph G = (V,E), a set D ⊆ V (G) is said to be an outerconnected dominating set if D is dominating and the graph G−D is connected. The outer-connected domination number of a graph G, denoted by γ̃c(G), is the cardinality of a minimum outer-connected dominating set of G. We study several properties of outer-connected dominating sets and give some bounds on the outer-connected dominati...

In this paper we initialize the study of independent domination in directed graphs. We show that an independent dominating set of an orientation of a graph is also an independent dominating set of the underlying graph, but that the converse is not true in general. We then prove existence and uniqueness theorems for several classes of digraphs including orientations of complete graphs, paths, tr...

An outer-connected dominating set for an arbitrary graph G is a set D̃ ⊆ V such that D̃ is a dominating set and the induced subgraph G[V \ D̃] be connected. In this paper, we focus on the outerconnected domination number of the product of graphs. We investigate the existence of outer-connected dominating set in lexicographic product and Corona of two arbitrary graphs, and we present upper bounds f...

This study investigates the domination, double and regular domination in intuitionistic fuzzy hypergraph (IFHG), which has enormous application computer science, networking, chemical, biological engineering. Few properties of IFHG are established. Furthermore, definitions complement independent set given. The relation between an its was discussed. Moreover, illustrated by determining containmen...

Let G be a graph of order n ≥ 2 and n1, n2, .., nk be integers such that 1 ≤ n1 ≤ n2 ≤ .. ≤ nk and n1 + n2 + .. + nk = n. Let for i = 1, .., k: Ai ⊆ Kni where Km is the set of all pairwise non-isomorphic graphs of order m, m = 1, 2, ... In this paper we study when for a domination related parameter μ (such as domination number, independent domination number and acyclic domination number) is ful...
