We study a randomized algorithm for graph domination, by which, according to a uniformly chosen permutation, vertices are revealed and added to the dominating set if not already dominated. We determine the expected size of the dominating…
We investigate certain structural properties of random interdependent networks. We start by studying a property known as $r$-robustness, which is a strong indicator of the ability of a network to tolerate structural perturbations and…
Given a vertex-coloured graph, a dominating set is said to be tropical if every colour of the graph appears at least once in the set. Here, we study minimum tropical dominating sets from structural and algorithmic points of view. First, we…
This work is related to the extension of the well-known problem of Roman domination in graph theory to fuzzy graphs. A variety of approaches have been used to explore the concept of domination in fuzzy graphs. This study uses the concept of…
We prove the following result: If $G$ be a connected graph on $n \ge 6$ vertices, then there exists a set of vertices $D$ with $|D| \le \frac{n}{3}$ and such that $V(G) \setminus N[D]$ is an independent set, where $N[D]$ is the closed…
We study a new kind of proximity graphs called proportional-edge proximity catch digraphs (PCDs)in a randomized setting. PCDs are a special kind of random catch digraphs that have been developed recently and have applications in statistical…
In varying degree distributions, we investigate the optimally robust networks against targeted attacks to nodes with higher degrees. In considering that a network tends to have more robustness with a smaller variance of degree…
An edge dominating set $F$ of a graph $G=(V,E)$ is an \textit{edge cut dominating set} if the subgraph $\langle V,G-F \rangle$ is disconnected. The \textit{edge cut domination number} $\gamma_{ct}(G)$ of $G$ is the minimum cardinality of an…
This paper is devoted to the online dominating set problem and its variants. We believe the paper represents the first systematic study of the effect of two limitations of online algorithms: making irrevocable decisions while not knowing…
Consider a dynamic network and a given distributed problem. At any point in time, there might exist several solutions that are equally good with respect to the problem specification, but that are different from an algorithmic perspective,…
Given a graph $G$, a subset $S$ of vertices of $G$ is an efficient dominating set ($EDS$) if $|N[v] \cap S|=1,$ for all $v\in V(G)$. A graph $G$ is efficiently dominatable if it possesses an $EDS$. The efficient domination number of G is…
Properties of systems with majority voting rules have been exhaustingly studied. In this work we focus on the randomized case - where the system is initialized by randomized initial set of seeds. Our main aim is to give an asymptotic…
A dominating set of a graph is a subset $D$ of its vertices such that every vertex not in $D$ is adjacent to at least one member of $D$. The domination number of a graph $G$ is the number of vertices in a smallest dominating set of $G$. The…
In this paper we give tight upper bounds on the total domination number, the weakly connected domination number and the connected domination number of a graph in terms of order and Euler characteristic. We also present upper bounds for the…
This work considers the robustness of uncertain consensus networks. The first set of results studies the stability properties of consensus networks with negative edge weights. We show that if either the negative weight edges form a cut in…
In recent years, the notion of r-robustness for the communication graph of the network has been introduced to address the challenge of achieving consensus in the presence of misbehaving agents. Higher r-robustness typically implies higher…
Considering a communication topology of a wireless network modeled by a graph where an edge exists between two nodes if they are within each other's communication range. A subset $U$ of nodes is a dominating set if each node is either in…
In the m-\emph{Eternal Domination} game, a team of guard tokens initially occupies a dominating set on a graph $G$. An attacker then picks a vertex without a guard on it and attacks it. The guards defend against the attack: one of them has…
We investigate a special case of hereditary property in graphs, referred to as {\em robustness}. A property (or structure) is called robust in a graph $G$ if it is inherited by all the connected spanning subgraphs of $G$. We motivate this…
In this paper, we study the behaviour of the generalized power domination number of a graph by small changes on the graph, namely edge and vertex deletion and edge contraction. We prove optimal bounds for $\gamma\_{p,k}(G-e)$,…
