Partial duality generalizes the fundamental concept of the geometric dual of an embedded graph. A partial dual is obtained by forming the geometric dual with respect to only a subset of edges. While geometric duality preserves the genus of…

For a graph $G=(V,E)$, a set $D \subseteq V$ is called a semitotal dominating set of $G$ if $D$ is a dominating set of $G$, and every vertex in $D$ is within distance~$2$ of another vertex of~$D$. The \textsc{Minimum Semitotal Domination}…

A subset $D$ of vertices of a graph $G$ is a \textit{dominating set} if for each $u\in V(G)\setminus D$, $u$ is adjacent to some vertex $v\in D$. The \textit{dominating number}, $\gamma(G)$ of $G$, is the minimum cardinality of a dominating…

Graphical domination was first introduced in [1] in the context of combinatorial threshold-linear networks (CTLNs). There it was shown that when a domination relationship exists between a pair of vertices in a graph, certain fixed points in…

Given a finite graph $G$, the maximum length of a sequence $(v_1,\ldots,v_k)$ of vertices in $G$ such that each $v_i$ dominates a vertex that is not dominated by any vertex in $\{v_1,\ldots,v_{i-1}\}$ is called the Grundy domination number,…

Given a graph $G$, an integer $k\geq 0$, and a non-negative integral function $f:V(G) \rightarrow \mathcal{N}$, the Vector Domination problem asks whether a set $S$ of vertices, of cardinality $k$ or less, exists in $G$ so that every vertex…

The Fast Fourier Transform is extended to functions on finite graphs whose edges are identified with intervals of finite length. Spectral and pseudospectral methods are developed to solve a wide variety of time dependent partial…

Given a positive integer $k$, a $k$-dominating set in a graph $G$ is a set of vertices such that every vertex not in the set has at least $k$ neighbors in the set. A total $k$-dominating set, also known as a $k$-tuple total dominating set,…

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.…

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a simple graph. A dominating set of $G$ is a subset $D\subseteq V$ such that every vertex not in $D$ is adjacent to at least one vertex in $D$. The cardinality of a smallest dominating set of $G$, denoted by $\gamma(G)$, is…

A power dominating set of a graph is a set of vertices that observes every vertex in the graph by combining classical domination with an iterative propagation process arising from electrical circuit theory. In this paper, we study the power…

In a fractional coloring, vertices of a graph are assigned measurable subsets of the real line and adjacent vertices receive disjoint subsets; the fractional chromatic number of a graph is at most $k$ if it has a fractional coloring in…
