We use a dynamic programming algorithm to establish a new lower bound on the domination number of complete cylindrical grid graphs of the form $C_n\square P_m$, that is, the Cartesian product of a path and a cycle, when $n\equiv 2\pmod{5}$,…
In this paper we present a lower bound for the domination number of the Cartesian product of a path and a cycle, that is tight if the length of the cycle is a multiple of five. This bound improves the natural lower bound obtained by using…
We establish exact values for the $2$-limited broadcast domination number of various grid graphs, in particular $C_m\square C_n$ for $3 \leq m \leq 6$ and all $n\geq m$, $P_m \square C_3$ for all $m \geq 3$, and $P_m \square C_n$ for $4\leq…
We establish upper and lower bounds for the 2-limited broadcast domination number of various grid graphs, in particular the Cartesian product of two paths, a path and a cycle, and two cycles. The upper bounds are derived by explicit…
In this paper, we study the $[k]$-Roman domination number of cylindrical graphs $C_m \Box P_n$. Our analysis begins with a general lower bound based on local neighborhood constraints, showing that $\gamma_{[k]R}(C_m\Box P_n) >…
A vertex subset S of a graph G is said to 2-dominate the graph if each vertex not in S has at least two neighbors in it. As usual, the associated parameter is the minimum cardinal of a 2-dominating set, which is called the 2-domination…
Domination of grids has been proved to be a demanding task and with the addition of independence it becomes more challenging. It is known that no grid with $m,n \geq 5$ has an efficient dominating set, also called perfect code, that is, an…
The secure domination numbers of the Cartesian products of two small graphs with paths or cycles is determined, as well as for Mobius ladder graphs. Prior to this work, in all cases where the secure domination number has been determined,…
Roman-type domination parameters form an important class of graph invariants that model protection and resource allocation problems on networks. Among them, $[k]$-Roman domination provides a unified framework that generalizes Roman, double…
The total domination number of a graph $G$ without isolated vertices is the minimum number of vertices that dominate all vertices in $G$. The total bondage number $b_t(G)$ of $G$ is the minimum number of edges whose removal enlarges the…
The product power throttling number of a graph is defined to study product throttling for power domination. The domination number of a graph is an upper bound for its product power throttling number. It is established that the two…
The computation of the domination-type parameters is a challenging problem in Cartesian product graphs. We present an algorithmic method to compute the $2$-domination number of the Cartesian product of a path with small order and any cycle,…
Roman domination and its higher-order extensions have attracted considerable attention due to their natural interpretation in terms of defensive resource allocation on networks. The recently introduced $[k]$-Roman domination framework…
Domination-type parameters are difficult to manage in Cartesian product graphs and there is usually no general relationship between the parameter in both factors and in the product graph. This is the situation of the domination number, the…
Let G_n = C_n square P_2 denote the prism (circular ladder) graph on 2n vertices. By encoding column configurations as cyclic words, domination is reduced to local Boolean constraints on adjacent factors. This framework yields explicit…
We use probabilistic methods to find lower bounds on the maximum number, in a graph with domination number \gamma, of dominating sets of size \gamma. We find that we can randomly generate a graph that, w.h.p., is dominated by almost all…
Closed form expressions for the domination number of an $n \times m$ grid have attracted significant attention, and an exact expression has been obtained in 2011 by Gon\c{c}alves et al. In this paper, we present our results on obtaining new…
For positive integers $m$ and $n$, the grid graph $G_{m,n}$ is the Cartesian product of the path graph $P_m$ on $m$ vertices and the path graph $P_n$ on $n$ vertices. An integer $\{2\}$-dominating function of a graph is a mapping from the…
An important question in the study of quasi-perfect codes is whether such codes can be constructed for all possible lengths $n$. In this paper, we address this question for specific values of $n$. First, we investigate the existence of…
We present an algorithm to compute the domination polynomial of the $m \times n$ grid, cylinder, and torus graphs and the king graph. The time complexity of the algorithm is $O(m^2n^2 \lambda^{2m})$ for the torus and $O(m^3n^2\lambda^m)$…
