In this paper, we define a new domination-like invariant of graphs. Let $\mathbb{R}^{+}$ be the set of non-negative numbers. Let $c\in \mathbb{R}^{+}-\{0\}$ be a number, and let $G$ be a graph. A function $f:V(G)\rightarrow \mathbb{R}^{+}$…

Let $G$ be a simple graph with vertex set $V$ and edge set $E$, and let $S \subseteq V$. The \emph{open neighborhood} of $v \in V$, $N(v)$, is the set of vertices adjacent to $v$; the \emph{closed neighborhood} is given by $N[v] = N(v) \cup…

A numbering $f$ of a graph $G$ of order $n$ is a labeling that assigns distinct elements of the set $\left\{ 1,2,\ldots ,n\right\} $ to the vertices of $G$. The strength $\textrm{str}_{f}\left( G\right)$ of a numbering $f:V\left( G\right)…

A subset $D$ of vertices of a graph $G$ is a dominating set if for each $u\in V(G)\setminus D$, $u$ is adjacent to some vertex $v\in D$. The domination number, $\gamma(G)$ of $G$, is the minimum cardinality of a dominating set of $G$. For…

We explore a reconfiguration version of the dominating set problem, where a dominating set in a graph $G$ is a set $S$ of vertices such that each vertex is either in $S$ or has a neighbour in $S$. In a reconfiguration problem, the goal is…

For $c\in \mathbb{R}^{+}\cup \{\infty \}$ and a graph $G$, a function $f:V(G)\rightarrow \{0,1,c\}$ is called a $c$-self dominating function of $G$ if for every vertex $u\in V(G)$, $f(u)\geq c$ or $\max\{f(v):v\in N_{G}(u)\}\geq 1$ where…

Let $w=(w_0,w_1, \dots,w_l)$ be a vector of nonnegative integers such that $ w_0\ge 1$. Let $G$ be a graph and $N(v)$ the open neighbourhood of $v\in V(G)$. We say that a function $f: V(G)\longrightarrow \{0,1,\dots ,l\}$ is a…

For a set $S$ of vertices of a graph $G$, a vertex $u$ in $V(G)\setminus S$, and a vertex $v$ in $S$, let ${\rm dist}_{(G,S)}(u,v)$ be the distance of $u$ and $v$ in the graph $G-(S\setminus \{ v\})$. Dankelmann et al. (Domination with…

For a graph $G=(V,E)$, a set $D\subset V(G)$ is a strong dominating set of $G$, if for every vertex $x\in V (G)\setminus D$ there is a vertex $y\in D$ with $xy \in E(G)$ and $deg(x)\leq deg(y)$. A strong coalition consists of two disjoint…

Given a graph $G=(V,E)$, $S\subseteq V$ is a dominating set if every $v\in V\setminus S$ is adjacent to an element of $S$. The Minimum Dominating Set problem asks for a dominating set with minimum cardinality. It is well known that its…
