Domination in Kn\"odel Graphs

Combinatorics 2023-06-22 v4

Abstract

Given a graph and an integer kk, it is an NP-complete problem to decide whether there is a dominating set of size at most kk. In this paper we study this problem for the Kn\"odel Graph on nn vertices using elementary number theory techniques. In particular, we show an explicit upper bound for the domination number of the Kn\"odel Graph on nn vertices any time that we can find a prime number pp dividing nn for which 22 is a primitive root.
