A dominating set $S$ of graph $G$ is called an $r$-grouped dominating set if $S$ can be partitioned into $S_1,S_2,\ldots,S_k$ such that the size of each unit $S_i$ is $r$ and the subgraph of $G$ induced by $S_i$ is connected. The concept of…

This paper delves into the stability of the $2$-domination number in simple undirected graphs. The $2$-domination number of a graph $G$, $\gamma_2(G)$, represents the minimum size of a vertex subset where every other vertex in the graph is…

For a graph G, a signed domination function of G is a two-colouring of the vertices of G with colours +1 and -1 such that the closed neighbourhood of every vertex contains more +1's than -1's. This concept is closely related to…

The 2-domination number $\gamma_2(G)$ of a graph $G$ is the minimum cardinality of a set $ D \subseteq V(G) $ for which every vertex outside $ D $ is adjacent to at least two vertices in $ D $. Clearly, $ \gamma_2(G) $ cannot be smaller…

For a graph $G=(V,E)$, a set $D\subseteq V$ is called a \emph{disjunctive dominating set} of $G$ if for every vertex $v\in V\setminus D$, $v$ is either adjacent to a vertex of $D$ or has at least two vertices in $D$ at distance $2$ from it.…
