A graph is well-(edge-)dominated if every minimal (edge) dominating set is minimum. A graph is equimatchable if every maximal matching is maximum. We study these concepts on strong product graphs. We fully characterize well-edge-dominated…

The degree polynomial of a multigraph $G$ is given by $\sum _{v \in V(G)} x^{\mbox{deg}(v)}$. We investigate here properties of the roots of such polynomials. In addition to examining the roots for some families of graphs with few and many…

The bipartition polynomial of a graph is a generalization of many other graph polynomials, including the domination, Ising, matching, independence, cut, and Euler polynomial. We show in this paper that it is also a powerful tool for proving…

For a graph $G=(V,E),$ a matching $M$ is a set of independent edges. The topic of matchings is well studied in graph theory. In this paper many varieties of matchings are discussed.

Let G be a combinatorial graph with vertices V and edges E. A proper coloring of G is an assignment of colors to the vertices such that no edge connects two vertices of the same color. These are the colorings considered in the famous Four…

Let $p$ be a positive integer and $G=(V,E)$ be a simple graph. A subset $D\subseteq V$ is a $p$-dominating set if each vertex not in $D$ has at least $p$ neighbors in $D$. The $p$-domination number $\g_p(G)$ is the minimum cardinality among…

For any graph G = (V, E) and proportion $p\in(0,1]$, a set $S\subseteq V$ is a p-dominating set if $\frac{|N[S]|}{|V|}\geq p$. The $p$-domination number $\gamma_{p}(G)$ equals the minimum cardinality of a $p$-dominating set in G. For a…

In a recent paper, we studied the interaction between the automorphism group of a graph and its Tutte polynomial. More precisely, we proved that certain symmetries of graphs are clearly reflected by their Tutte polynomials. The purpose of…

A set $S$ of vertices in a graph $G(V,E)$ is called a dominating set if every vertex $v\in V$ is either an element of $S$ or is adjacent to an element of $S$. A set $S$ of vertices in a graph $G(V,E)$ is called a total dominating set if…

Let G be a finite undirected graph. A vertex dominates itself and all its neighbors in G. A vertex set D is an efficient dominating set (e.d. for short) of G if every vertex of G is dominated by exactly one vertex of D. The Efficient…

A locating-dominating set of a graph $G$ is a dominating set $D$ of $G$ with the additional property that every two distinct vertices outside $D$ have distinct neighbors in $D$; that is, for distinct vertices $u$ and $v$ outside $D$, $N(u)…

A dominating set of a graph $G$ is a subset $D \subseteq V_G$ such that every vertex not in $D$ is adjacent to at least one vertex in $D$. The cardinality of a smallest dominating set of $G$, denoted by $\gamma(G)$, is the domination number…
