Given a directed graph $D$, a set $S \subseteq V(D)$ is a total dominating set of $D$ if each vertex in $D$ has an in-neighbor in $S$. The total domination number of $D$, denoted $\gamma_t(D)$, is the minimum cardinality among all total…
Properties of two classes of generally convex sets in the n-dimentional real Euclidean space, called m-semiconvex and weakly m-semiconvex, 1<=m<n, are investigated in the present work. In particular, it is established that an open set with…
A permutation graph $G_\pi$ is a simple graph with vertices corresponding to the elements of $\pi$ and an edge between $i$ and $j$ when $i$ and $j$ are inverted in $\pi$. A set of vertices $D$ is said to dominate a graph $G$ when every…

For an integer $k \ge 1$, a (distance) $k$-dominating set of a connected graph $G$ is a set $S$ of vertices of $G$ such that every vertex of $V(G) \setminus S$ is at distance at most~$k$ from some vertex of $S$. The $k$-domination number,…
