A dominating set of a graph $G$ is a set $D \subseteq V(G)$ such that every vertex in $V(G) \setminus D$ is adjacent to at least one vertex in $D$. A set $L\subseteq V(G)$ is a locating set of $G$ if every vertex in $V(G) \setminus L$ has…

The dominating set problem (DSP) is one of the most famous problems in combinatorial optimization. It is defined as follows. For a given simple graph $G=(V,E)$, a dominating set of $G$ is a subset $S\subseteq V$ such that every vertex in $…

Given a graph $G=(V,E)$, the dominating set problem asks for a minimum subset of vertices $D\subseteq V$ such that every vertex $u\in V\setminus D$ is adjacent to at least one vertex $v\in D$. That is, the set $D$ satisfies the condition…

A dominating set of a graph $\mathcal{G=(V, E)}$ is a subset of vertices $S\subseteq\mathcal{V}$ such that every vertex $v\in \mathcal{V} \setminus S$ outside the dominating set is adjacent to a vertex $u\in S$ within the set. The minimum…

Let $G$ be an undirected graph. An edge of $G$ dominates itself and all edges adjacent to it. A subset $E'$ of edges of $G$ is an edge dominating set of $G$, if every edge of the graph is dominated by some edge of $E'$. We say that $E'$ is…

Given an undirected graph $G=(V,E)$, a vertex $v\in V$ is edge-vertex (ev) dominated by an edge $e\in E$ if $v$ is either incident to $e$ or incident to an adjacent edge of $e$. A set $S^{ev}\subseteq E$ is an edge-vertex dominating set…

A semitotal dominating set of a graph $G$ with no isolated vertex is a dominating set $D$ of $G$ such that every vertex in $D$ is within distance two of another vertex in $D$. The minimum size $\gamma_{t2}(G)$ of a semitotal dominating set…
