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…
In this paper, we prove a problem proposed by Bre\v{s}ar: for any graphs $G$ and $H$, $\Gamma(G\square H)\ge\Gamma(G)\Gamma(H)+ \min\{|V(G)|-\Gamma(G),|V(H)|-\Gamma(H)\}$, where $\Gamma(G)$ denotes the upper domination number of $G$.
We prove that for a triangulated plane graph it is NP-complete to determine its domination number and its power domination number.
We prove that for every graph $G$ on $n$ vertices and with minimum degree five, the domination number $\gamma(G)$ cannot exceed $n/3$. The proof combines an algorithmic approach and the discharging method. Using the same technique, we…
Given a graph G, the domination number gamma(G) of G is the minimum order of a set S of vertices such that each vertex not in S is adjacent to some vertex in S. Equivalently, label the vertices from {0, 1} so that the sum over each closed…
In 1956, Nordhaus and Gaddum gave lower and upper bounds on the sum and the product of the chromatic number of a graph and its complement, in terms of the order of the graph. Since then, any bound on the sum and/or the product of an…
We consider Upper Domination, the problem of finding the minimal dominating set of maximum cardinality. Very few exact algorithms have been described for solving Upper Domination. In particular, no binary programming formulations for Upper…
The study of token addition and removal and token jumping reconfiguration graphs for power domination is initiated. Some results established here can be extended by applying the methods used for power domination to reconfiguration graphs…
The \emph{domination subdivision number} sd$(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the minimum number of edges that must be subdivided (where an edge can be subdivided at most once) in order to increase the domination number of $G$. It has been shown…
In this paper, we obtain lower bounds for the domination numbers of connected graphs with girth at least $7$. We show that the domination number of a connected graph with girth at least $7$ is either $1$ or at least…
We improve recent results relating graph eigenvalues to other graph parameters like girth, domination number, and minimum degree.
We propose the conjecture that the domination number $\gamma(G)$ of a $\Delta$-regular graph $G$ with $\Delta\geq 1$ is always at most its edge domination number $\gamma_e(G)$, which coincides with the domination number of its line graph.…
An algorithmic upper bound on the domination number $\gamma$ of graphs in terms of the order $n$ and the minimum degree $\delta$ is proved. It is demonstrated that the bound improves best previous bounds for any $5\le \delta \le 50$. In…
We give logarithmic lower bounds for the approximability of the Minimum Dominating Set problem in connected (alpha,beta)-Power Law Graphs. We give also a best up to now upper approximation bound on the problem for the case of the parameters…
The power domination problem focuses on finding the optimal placement of phase measurement units (PMUs) to monitor an electrical power network. In the context of graphs, the power domination number of a graph $G$, denoted $\gamma_P(G)$, is…
As a natural variant of domination in graphs, Dankelmann et al. [Domination with exponential decay, Discrete Math. 309 (2009) 5877-5883] introduce exponential domination, where vertices are considered to have some dominating power that…
Domination in graphs is a widely studied field, where many different definitions have been introduced in the last years to respond to different network requirements. This paper presents a new dominating parameter based on the well-known…
The enhanced power graph of a group G is a graph with vertex set G, where two distinct vertices x and y are adjacent if and only if there exists an element w in G such that both x and y are powers of w. To obtain the proper enhanced power…
In this paper, we study the inverse signed total domination number in graphs and present new lower and upper bounds on this parameter. For example by making use of the classic theorem of Turan (1941), we present a sharp upper bound for…
In 1970 Nosal gave upper and lower bounds on the sum of the spectral radii of a graph and its complement. We generalize this problem to other eigenvalues and give a number of bounds. We essentially solve the corresponding problem for the…
