Let $G=(V,E)$ be a connected, finite undirected graph. A set $S \subseteq V$ is said to be a total dominating set of $G$ if every vertex in $V$ is adjacent to some vertex in $S$. The total domination number, $\gamma_{t}(G)$, is the minimum…

Given an undirected graph $G = (V, E)$ and a weight function $w:E \to \mathbb{R}$, the \textsc{Minimum Dominating Tree} problem asks to find a minimum weight sub-tree of $G$, $T = (U, F)$, such that every $v \in V \setminus U$ is adjacent…

For a graph $G$ and an integer-valued function $\tau$ on its vertex set, a dynamic monopoly is a set of vertices of $G$ such that iteratively adding to it vertices $u$ of $G$ that have at least $\tau(u)$ neighbors in it eventually yields…

Treewidth is a measure of how tree-like a graph is. It has many important algorithmic applications because many NP-hard problems on general graphs become tractable when restricted to graphs of bounded treewidth. Algorithms for problems on…

We study the asymptotic expansion of the determinant of the graph Laplacian associated to discretizations of a half-translation surface endowed with a flat unitary vector bundle. By doing so, over the discretizations, we relate the…

In this short paper, we establish relations between the domination number $\gamma$, the total domination number $\gamma_t$, and the connected domination number $\gamma_c$ of a graph. In particular, we prove upper and lower bounds for…

In this paper, we investigate the structural properties of trees and bipartite graphs through the lens of topological indices and combinatorial graph theory. We focus on the First and Second Hyper-Zagreb indices, $HM_1(G)$ and $HM_2(G)$,…

As a natural variant of domination in graphs, Dankelmann et al. [Domination with exponential decay, Discrete Math. 309 (2009) 5877-5883] introduce exponential domination, where vertices are considered to have some dominating power that…

A sequence of vertices in a graph $G$ with no isolated vertices is called a total dominating sequence if every vertex in the sequence totally dominates at least one vertex that was not totally dominated by preceding vertices in the…

A dominating set in a graph $G$ is a subset of vertices $D$ such that every vertex in $V\setminus D$ is a neighbor of some vertex of $D$. The domination number of $G$ is the minimum size of a dominating set of $G$ and it is denoted by…

Consider that $\mathbb{G}=(\mathbb{X}, \mathbb{Y})$ is a simple, connected graph with $\mathbb{X}$ as the vertex set and $\mathbb{Y}$ as the edge set. The atom-bond connectivity ($ABC$) index is a novel topological index that Estrada…

In this paper, we consider dominating sets $D$ and $D'$ such that $D$ and $D'$ are disjoint and there exists a perfect matching between them. Let $DD_{\textrm{m}}(G)$ denote the cardinality of smallest such sets $D, D'$ in $G$ (provided…

We provide a constructive characterization of the trees for which the Roman domination number strongly equals the weak Roman domination number, that is, for which every weak Roman dominating function of minimum weight is a Roman dominating…

We commence the study of domination in the incidence graphs of combinatorial designs. Let $D$ be a combinatorial design and denote by $\gamma(D)$ the domination number of the incidence (Levy) graph of $D$. We obtain a number of results…

A set of vertices of a graph $G$ such that each vertex of $G$ is either in the set or is adjacent to a vertex in the set is called a dominating set of $G$. If additionally, the set of vertices induces a connected subgraph of $G$ then the…

A set $S\subseteq V$ is a dominating set of $G$ if every vertex in $V - S$ is adjacent to at least one vertex in $S$. The domination number $\gamma(G)$ of $G$ equals the minimum cardinality of a dominating set $S$ in $G$; we say that such a…

In this paper, we relate the seemingly unrelated concepts of treewidth and boxicity. Our main result is that, for any graph G, boxicity(G) <= treewidth(G) + 2. We also show that this upper bound is (almost) tight. Our result leads to…

In this paper, we study "robust" dominating sets of random graphs that retain the domination property even if a small \emph{deterministic} set of edges are removed. We motivate our study by illustrating with examples from wireless networks…

Given a graph $G$, guards are placed on vertices of $G$. Then vertices are subject to an infinite sequence of attacks so that each attack must be defended by a guard moving from a neighboring vertex. The m-eternal domination number is the…

We show that the dominating set problem parameterized by solution size is fixed-parameter tractable (FPT) in graphs that do not contain the claw (K(1,3)), the complete bipartite graph on four vertices where the two parts have one and three…
