A set S V is a dominating set of a graph G = (V;E) if each vertex in V is either in S or is adjacent to a vertex in S. A vertex is said to dominate itself and all its neighbors. The domination number (G) is the minimum cardinality of a dominating set of G. A set S V is an independent set of vertices if no two vertices in S are adjacent. The independence number, B0 (G), is the maximum cardinalit...

In this article we study some variants of the domination concept attending to the connectivity of the subgraph generated by the dominant set. This study is restricted to maximal outerplanar graphs. We establish tight combinatorial bounds for connected domination, semitotal domination, independent domination and weakly connected domination for any n-vertex maximal outerplaner graph.

A double Roman dominating function on a graph $G$ with vertex set $V(G)$ is defined in cite{bhh} as a function$f:V(G)rightarrow{0,1,2,3}$ having the property that if $f(v)=0$, then the vertex $v$ must have at least twoneighbors assigned 2 under $f$ or one neighbor $w$ with $f(w)=3$, and if $f(v)=1$, then the vertex $v$ must haveat least one neighbor $u$ with $f(u)ge 2$. The weight of a double R...

Let γ(G), i(G), γS(G) and iS(G) denote the domination number, the independent domination number, the strong domination number and the independent strong domination number of a graph G, respectively. A graph G is called γi-perfect (domination perfect) if γ(H) = i(H), for every induced subgraph H of G. The classes of γγS-perfect, γSiS-perfect, iiS-perfect and γiS-perfect graphs are defined analog...

The following fundamental result for the domination number γ(G) of a graph G was proved by Alon and Spencer, Arnautov, Lovász and Payan: γ(G) ≤ ln(δ + 1) + 1 δ + 1 n, where n is the order and δ is the minimum degree of vertices of G. A similar upper bound for the double domination number was found by Harant and Henning [On double domination in graphs. Discuss. Math. Graph Theory 25 (2005) 29–34...

. Let G be a connected graph. A set S ⊆ V (G) is an outer-connected 2-resolving hop dominating of if and = or the subgraph ⟨V (G)\S⟩ induced by (G)\S connected. The domination number G, denoted γ^c2Rh(G) smallest cardinality G.
