We study the dominating set reconfiguration problem with the token sliding rule. It consists, given a graph G=(V,E) and two dominating sets D_s and D_t of G, in determining if there exists a sequence S=<D_1:=D_s,...,D_l:=D_t> of dominating…

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)…

Given an undirected graph $G=(V,E)$, a vertex $v\in V$ is edge-vertex (ev) dominated by an edge $e\in E$ if $v$ is either incident to $e$ or incident to an adjacent edge of $e$. A set $S^{ev}\subseteq E$ is an edge-vertex dominating set…

Given a digraph $G$, a set $X\subseteq V(G)$ is said to be absorbing set (resp. dominating set) if every vertex in the graph is either in $X$ or is an in-neighbour (resp. out-neighbour) of a vertex in $X$. A set $S\subseteq V(G)$ is said to…
