A dominating set in a graph $G$ is a set $S$ of vertices such that every vertex that does not belong to $S$ is adjacent to a vertex in $S$. The domination number $\gamma(G)$ of $G$ is the minimum cardinality of a dominating set of $G$. The…

A power dominating set of a graph is a set of vertices that observes every vertex in the graph by combining classical domination with an iterative propagation process arising from electrical circuit theory. In this paper, we study the power…

A graph is said to be well-dominated if all its minimal dominating sets are of the same size. The class of well-dominated graphs forms a subclass of the well studied class of well-covered graphs. While the recognition problem for the class…

A set $S$ of vertices of a graph $G$ is a dominating set in $G$ if every vertex outside of $S$ is adjacent to at least one vertex belonging to $S$. A domination parameter of $G$ is related to those sets of vertices of a graph satisfying…

Let G=(V,E) be a graph. A vertex dominates itself and all its neighbors, i.e., every vertex v in V dominates its closed neighborhood N[v]. A vertex set D in G is an efficient dominating (e.d.) set for G if for every vertex v in V, there is…

In this work, two types of codes such that they both dominate and locate the vertices of a graph are studied. Those codes might be sets of detectors in a network or processors controlling a system whose set of responses should determine a…

Say that an edge of a graph G dominates itself and every other edge adjacent to it. An edge dominating set of a graph G = (V,E) is a subset of edges E' of E which dominates all edges of G. In particular, if every edge of G is dominated by…

We consider some problems concerning the maximum number of (strong) dominating sets in a regular graph, and their weighted analogues. Our primary tool is Shearer's entropy lemma. These techniques extend to a reasonably broad class of graph…

Determining the maximum number of edges in an intersecting hypergraph on a fixed ground set under additional constraints is one of the central topics in extremal combinatorics. In contrast, there are few results on analogous problems…

The concept of domination in graphs plays a central role in understanding structural properties and applications in network theory. In this study, we focus on the paired disjunctive domination number in the context of middle graphs, a…

We first introduce the concept of (k,k',k'')-domination numbers in graphs, which is a generalization of many domination parameters. Then we find lower and upper bounds for this parameter, which improve many well-known results in…

A dominating set of a graph is a subset $D$ of its vertices such that every vertex not in $D$ is adjacent to at least one member of $D$. The domination number of a graph $G$ is the number of vertices in a smallest dominating set of $G$. The…

A locating-dominating set in a graph G is a subset of vertices representing "detectors" which can locate an "intruder" given that each detector covers its closed neighborhood and can distinguish its own location from its neighbors. We…

We study upper bounds on the size of optimum locating-total dominating sets in graphs. A set $S$ of vertices of a graph $G$ is a locating-total dominating set if every vertex of $G$ has a neighbor in $S$, and if any two vertices outside $S$…

An open-locating-dominating set of a graph models a detection system for a facility with a possible "intruder" or a multiprocessor network with a possible malfunctioning processor. A "sensor" or "detector" is assumed to be installed at a…
