We study the influence of edge subdivision on the convex domination number. We show that in general an edge subdivision can arbitrarily increase and arbitrarily decrease the convex domination number. We also find some bounds for unicyclic graphs and we investigate graphs G for which the convex domination number changes after subdivision of any edge in G.

A sequence of vertices in a graph G is called a legal dominating sequence if every vertex in the sequence dominates at least one vertex not dominated by those vertices that precede it, and at the end all vertices of G are dominated. While the length of a shortest such sequence is the domination number of G, in this paper we investigate legal dominating sequences of maximum length, which we call...

A Roman dominating function of a graph G is a function f : V → {0, 1, 2} such that every vertex with 0 has a neighbor with 2. The minimum of f (V (G)) = ∑ v∈V f (v) over all such functions is called the Roman domination number γR(G). A 2-rainbow dominating function of a graphG is a function g that assigns to each vertex a set of colors chosen from the set {1, 2}, for each vertex v ∈ V (G) such ...

A graph with no isolated vertices is edge critical with respect to total restrained domination if for any non-edge e of G, the total restrained domination number of G+ e is less than the total restrained domination number of G. We call these graphs γtr-edge critical. In this paper, we characterize all γtr-edge critical unicyclic graphs.

In this paper, we study the behaviour of the generalized power domination number of a graph by small changes on the graph, namely edge and vertex deletion and edge contraction. We prove optimal bounds for γP,k(G − e), γP,k(G/e) and for γP,k(G − v) in terms of γP,k(G), and give examples for which these bounds are tight. We characterize all graphs for which γP,k(G− e) = γP,k(G) + 1 for any edge e...
