Let $\gamma_g(G)$ be the game domination number of a graph $G$. Rall conjectured that if $G$ is a traceable graph, then $\gamma_g(G) \le \left\lceil \frac{1}{2}n(G)\right\rceil$. Our main result verifies the conjecture over the class of…

An edge-deleted subgraph of a graph $G$ is an {\it edge-card}. A {\it decard} consists of an edge-card and the degree of the missing edge. The {\it degree-associated edge-reconstruction number} of a graph $G$, denoted $\dern(G)$, is the…
We prove that a large family of graphs which are decomposable with respect to the modular decomposition can be reconstructed from their collection of vertex-deleted subgraphs.
A dominating set of a graph $G$ is a set $D\subseteq V(G)$ such that \-every vertex of $G$ is either in $D$ or is adjacent to a vertex in $D$. The domination number of $G$, $\gamma(G)$, is the minimum order of a dominating set. A subset $R$…
The reconfiguration graph $R_k(G)$ of the $k$-colourings of a graph $G$ contains as its vertex set the $k$-colourings of $G$ and two colourings are joined by an edge if they differ in colour on just one vertex of $G$. We show that for each…
