In a graph $G$, a vertex dominates itself and its neighbours. A set $D\subseteq V(G)$ is said to be a $k$-tuple dominating set of $G$ if $D$ dominates every vertex of $G$ at least $k$ times. The minimum cardinality among all $k$-tuple…

A CIS graph is a graph in which every maximal stable set and every maximal clique intersect. A graph is well-covered if all its maximal stable sets are of the same size, co-well-covered if its complement is well-covered, and…

A fair dominating set in a graph $G$ (or FD-set) is a dominating set $S$ such that all vertices not in $S$ are dominated by the same number of vertices from $S$; that is, every two vertices not in $S$ have the same number of neighbors in…

Let $G=(V,E)$ be an undirected graph without loops and multiple edges. A subset $C\subseteq V$ is called \emph{identifying} if for every vertex $x\in V$ the intersection of $C$ and the closed neighbourhood of $x$ is nonempty, and these…

For a graph $G=(V,E)$, we call a subset $ S\subseteq V \cup E$ a total mixed dominating set of $G$ if each element of $V \cup E$ is either adjacent or incident to an element of $S$, and the total mixed domination number $\gamma_{tm}(G)$ of…

A proper labelling of a graph $G$ is a pair $({\pi},c_{\pi})$ in which ${\pi}$ is an assignment of numeric labels to some elements of $G$, and $c_{\pi}$ is a colouring induced by ${\pi}$ through some mathematical function over the set of…

Let $k$ be a positive integer and let $G$ be a graph with vertex set $V(G)$. A subset $D \subseteq V(G)$ is a $k$-dominating set if every vertex outside $D$ is adjacent to at least $k$ vertices in $D$. The $k$-domination number…

The open neighbourhood of a vertex $v$ of a graph $G$ is the set $N(v)$ consisting of all vertices adjacent to $v$ in $G$. For $D\subseteq V(G)$, we define $\overline{D}=V(G)\setminus D$. A set $D\subseteq V(G)$ is called a super dominating…

A graph $G = (V, E)$ is \emph{partitionable} if there exists a partition $\{A, B\}$ of $V$ such that $A$ induces a disjoint union of cliques and $B$ induces a triangle-free graph. In this paper we investigate the computational complexity of…

A set $S$ of vertices in a graph $G$ is a paired dominating set if every vertex of $G$ is adjacent to a vertex in $S$ and the subgraph induced by $S$ admits a perfect matching. The minimum cardinality of a paired dominating set of $G$ is…

Given a graph G equals (V,E), a subset S subset of V is a dominating set if every vertex in V minus S is adjacent to some vertex in S. The dominating set with the least cardinality, gamma, is called a gamma-set which is commonly known as a…

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…

For a graph $G = (V, E)$, the $\gamma$-graph of $G$ is the graph whose vertex set is the collection of minimum dominating sets, or $\gamma$-sets of $G$, and two $\gamma$-sets are adjacent if they differ by a single vertex and the two…

A cluster graph is a graph whose every connected component is a complete graph. Given a simple undirected graph $G$, a subset of vertices inducing a cluster graph is called an independent union of cliques (IUC), and the IUC polytope…

{\it A unit cube in $k$-dimension (or a $k$-cube) is defined as the cartesian product $R_1 \times R_2 \times ... \times R_k$, where each $R_i$ is a closed interval on the real line of the form $[a_i, a_i+1]$. The {\it cubicity} of $G$,…

For a graph $G=(V,E)$ with no isolated vertices, a set $D\subseteq V$ is called a semipaired dominating set of G if $(i)$ $D$ is a dominating set of $G$, and $(ii)$ $D$ can be partitioned into two element subsets such that the vertices in…

A dominating set of a graph $G$ is a set $S \subseteq V(G)$ such that every vertex in $V(G) \setminus S$ has a neighbor in $S$, where two vertices are neighbors if they are adjacent. A secure dominating set of $G$ is a dominating set $S$ of…

A packing $k$-coloring of a graph $G$ is a partition of $V(G)$ into sets $V_1,\ldots,V_k$ such that for each $1\leq i\leq k$ the distance between any two distinct $x,y\in V_i$ is at least $i+1$. The packing chromatic number, $\chi_p(G)$, of…

Let $G$ be a bipartite graph without loops and multiple edges on $v\ge 4$ vertices, which can be drawn on the plane such that any edge intersects at most one other edge. We prove that such graph has at most $3v-8$ edges for even $v\ne 6$…
