Abstract
The domination game is an optimization game played by two players, Dominator and Staller, who alternately select vertices in a graph . A vertex is said to be dominated if it has been selected or is adjacent to a selected vertex. Each selected vertex must strictly increase the number of dominated vertices at the time of its selection, and the game ends once every vertex in is dominated. Dominator aims to keep the game as short as possible, while Staller tries to achieve the opposite. In this article, we prove that for any graph on vertices, Dominator has a strategy to end the game in at most moves, which was conjectured by Kinnersley, West and Zamani.
