Independent domination versus packing in subcubic graphs

Combinatorics 2023-07-12 v1

Abstract

In 2011, Henning, L\"{o}wenstein, and Rautenbach observed that the domination number of a graph is bounded from above by the product of the packing number and the maximum degree of the graph. We prove a stronger statement in subcubic graphs: the independent domination number is bounded from above by three times the packing number.
