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…

A graph $G=(V,E)$ is $\gamma$-excellent if $V$ is a union of all $\gamma$-sets of $G$, where $\gamma$ stands for the domination number. Let $\mathcal{I}$ be a set of all mutually nonisomorphic graphs and $\emptyset \not= \mathcal{H}…

In a graph $G$, a set $D\subseteq V(G)$ is called 2-dominating set if each vertex not in $D$ has at least two neighbors in $D$. The 2-domination number $\gamma_2(G)$ is the minimum cardinality of such a set $D$. We give a method for the…

Let $G$ be a connected graph. A non-empty $T\subseteq V(G)$ is a $2$-\textit{movable total dominating set} of $G$ if $T$ is a total dominating set and for every pair $x,y \in T$, $T \backslash \{x, y\}$ is a total dominating set in $G$, or…

A locating-dominating set of a graph $G$ is a dominating set of $G$ such that every vertex of $G$ outside the dominating set is uniquely identified by its neighborhood within the dominating set. The location-domination number of $G$ is the…

For $S\subseteq V(G)$, we define $\bar{S}=V(G)\setminus S$. A set $S\subseteq V(G)$ is called a super dominating set if for every vertex $u\in \bar{S}$, there exists $v\in S$ such that $N(v)\cap \bar{S}=\{u\}$. The super domination number…

A Roman $\{2\}$-dominating function (R2F) is a function $f:V\rightarrow \{0,1,2\}$ with the property that for every vertex $v\in V$ with $f(v)=0$ there is a neighbor $u$ of $v$ with $f(u)=2$, or there are two neighbors $x,y$ of $v$ with…
