Efficient and Perfect domination on circular-arc graphs

Abstract

Given a graph G=(V,E)G = (V,E), a \emph{perfect dominating set} is a subset of vertices VV(G)V' \subseteq V(G) such that each vertex vV(G)Vv \in V(G)\setminus V' is dominated by exactly one vertex vVv' \in V'. An \emph{efficient dominating set} is a perfect dominating set VV' where VV' is also an independent set. These problems are usually posed in terms of edges instead of vertices. Both problems, either for the vertex or edge variant, remains NP-Hard, even when restricted to certain graphs families. We study both variants of the problems for the circular-arc graphs, and show efficient algorithms for all of them.
