For a graph $G$, the central graph $C(G)$ is the graph constructed from $G$ by subdividing each edge of $G$ with one vertex and also by adding an edge to every pair of non-adjacent vertices in $G$. Also for a graph $G$, let $\gamma(G)$ and…
In this paper we consider the communication problem that involves transmission of correlated sources over broadcast channels. We consider a graph-based framework for this information transmission problem. The system involves a source coding…
In the total domination game played on a graph $G$, players Dominator and Staller alternately select vertices of $G$, as long as possible, such that each vertex chosen increases the number of vertices totally dominated. Dominator (Staller)…
A subset $D\subseteq V(G)$ is called a $k$-distance dominating set of $G$ if every vertex in $V(G)\setminus D$ is within distance $k$ from some vertex of $D$. The minimum cardinality among all $k$-distance dominating sets of $G$ is called…
A dominating set in a graph $G$ is a set $S$ of vertices such that every vertex in $V(G) \setminus S$ is adjacent to a vertex in $S$. A restrained dominating set of $G$ is a dominating set $S$ with the additional restraint that the graph $G…
A graph $G$ is a \emph{cover} of a graph $F$ if there exists an onto mapping $\pi : V(G) \to V(F)$, called a (\emph{covering}) \emph{projection}, such that $\pi$ maps the neighbours of any vertex $v$ in $G$ bijectively onto the neighbours…
A set $D$ of vertices is a strong dominating set in a graph $G$, if for every vertex $x\in V(G) \setminus D$ there is a vertex $y\in D$ with $xy\in E(G)$ and $deg(x) \leq deg(y)$. The strong domination number $\gamma_{st}(G)$ of $G$ is the…
An integer distance digraph is the Cayley graph $\Gamma(\mathbb{Z},S)$ of the additive group $\mathbb{Z}$ of all integers with respect to a finite subset $S\subseteq\mathbb{Z}$. The domination ratio of $\Gamma(\mathbb{Z},S)$, defined as the…
A set $S\subseteq V$ is $\alpha$-dominating if for all $v\in V-S$, $|N(v) \cap S | \geq \alpha |N(v)|.$ The $\alpha$-domination number of $G$ equals the minimum cardinality of an $\alpha$-dominating set $S$ in $G$. Since being introduced by…
The {\em independent domination number} $\gamma^i(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the maximum, over all independent sets $I$, of the minimal number of vertices needed to dominate $I$. It is known \cite{abz} that in chordal graphs $\gamma^i$ is equal…
$k$-defensive domination, a variant of the classical domination problem on graphs, seeks a minimum cardinality vertex set providing a surjective defense against any attack on vertices of cardinality bounded by a parameter $k$. The problem…
Graph burning is a model for the spread of social contagion. The burning number is a graph parameter associated with graph burning that measures the speed of the spread of contagion in a graph; the lower the burning number, the faster the…
Let $G=(V,E)$ be a graph without isolated vertices. A set $S\subseteq V$ is a paired-domination set if every vertex in $V-S$ is adjacent to a vertex in $S$ and the subgraph induced by $S$ contains a perfect matching. The paired-domination…
A semitotal dominating set of a graph $G$ with no isolated vertex is a dominating set $D$ of $G$ such that every vertex in $D$ is within distance two of another vertex in $D$. The minimum size $\gamma_{t2}(G)$ of a semitotal dominating set…
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…
The product power throttling number of a graph is defined to study product throttling for power domination. The domination number of a graph is an upper bound for its product power throttling number. It is established that the two…
An independent broadcast on a graph $G$ is a function $f: V \longrightarrow \{0,\ldots,{\rm diam}(G)\}$ such that $(i)$ $f(v)\leq e(v)$ for every vertex $v\in V(G)$, where $\operatorname{diam}(G)$ denotes the diameter of $G$ and $e(v)$ the…
The connected domination game is played just as the domination game, with an additional requirement that at each stage of the game the vertices played induce a connected subgraph. The number of moves in a D-game (an S-game, resp.) on a…
In the first part of this paper, we consider weighted domination in the case where the vertices of the complete graph on~\(n\) vertices are equipped with independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) weights. We use the probabilistic…
In a graph $G$, a vertex dominates itself and its neighbors. A subset $S\subseteq V(G)$ is said to be a double dominating set of $G$ if $S$ dominates every vertex of $G$ at least twice. The double domination number $\gamma_{\times 2}(G)$ is…
