The concept of majority domination in graphs has been defined in at least two different ways: As a function and as a set. In this work we extend the latter concept to digraphs, while the former was extended in another paper. Given a digraph…

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a simple graph of order $n$. A Majority Roman Dominating Function (MRDF) on a graph G is a function $f: V\rightarrow\{-1, +1, 2\}$ if the sum of its function values over at least half the closed neighborhoods is at least…

A function f: V \rightarrow \{-1,0,1\} is a minus-domination function of a graph G=(V,E) if the values over the vertices in each closed neighborhood sum to a positive number. The weight of f is the sum of f(x) over all vertices x \in V. The…

Given a simple graph $G$, a dominating set in $G$ is a set of vertices $S$ such that every vertex not in $S$ has a neighbor in $S$. Denote the domination number, which is the size of any minimum dominating set of $G$, by $\gamma(G)$. For…
