Given a graph $G = (V, E)$ and an integer $k$, we study $k$-Vertex Seperator (resp. $k$-Edge Separator), where the goal is to remove the minimum number of vertices (resp. edges) such that each connected component in the resulting graph has…

For every positive integer $k$, a set $S$ of vertices in a graph $G=(V,E)$ is a $k$-tuple dominating set of $G$ if every vertex of $V-S$ is adjacent to least $k$ vertices and every vertex of $S$ is adjacent to least $k-1$ vertices in $S$.…

Dominating set is a set of vertices of a graph such that all other vertices have a neighbour in the dominating set. We propose a new order-based randomised local search (RLS$_o$) algorithm to solve minimum dominating set problem in large…

Let $G$ be a graph. A set $S$ of vertices in $G$ dominates the graph if every vertex of $G$ is either in $S$ or a neighbor of a vertex in $S$. Finding a minimal cardinality set which dominates the graph is an NP-complete problem. The graph…

We survey results concerning reconfigurations of colourings and dominating sets in graphs. The vertices of the $k$-colouring graph $\mathcal{C}_{k}(G)$ of a graph $G$ correspond to the proper $k$-colourings of a graph $G$, with two…

A set $S\subseteq V$ is a dominating set of $G$ if every vertex in $V - S$ is adjacent to at least one vertex in $S$. The domination number $\gamma(G)$ of $G$ equals the minimum cardinality of a dominating set $S$ in $G$; we say that such a…

Given a graph $G=(V,E)$ and an integer $k$, the Minimum Membership Dominating Set (MMDS) problem seeks to find a dominating set $S \subseteq V$ of $G$ such that for each $v \in V$, $|N[v] \cap S|$ is at most $k$. We investigate the…

Eternal domination is a dynamic process by which a graph is protected from an infinite sequence of vertex intrusions. In eternal distance-$k$ domination, guards initially occupy the vertices of a distance-$k$ dominating set. After a vertex…

We investigate how efficiently a well-studied family of domination-type problems can be solved on bounded-treewidth graphs. For sets $\sigma,\rho$ of non-negative integers, a $(\sigma,\rho)$-set of a graph $G$ is a set $S$ of vertices such…

In a finite undirected graph $G=(V,E)$, a vertex $v \in V$ {\em dominates} itself and its neighbors in $G$. A vertex set $D \subseteq V$ is an {\em efficient dominating set} ({\em e.d.} for short) of $G$ if every $v \in V$ is dominated in…

We investigate the parameterized complexity of generalisations and variations of the dominating set problem on classes of graphs that are nowhere dense. In particular, we show that the distance-d dominating-set problem, also known as the…

A locating-dominating set in an undirected graph is a subset of vertices $S$ such that $S$ is dominating and for every $u,v \notin S$, we have $N(u)\cap S\ne N(v)\cap S$. In this paper, we consider the oriented version of the problem. A…
