Denote byγ(G)the domination number of a digraphGandCm□Cnthe Cartesian product ofCmandCn, the directed cycles of lengthm,n≥2. In 2010, Liu et al. determined the exact values ofγ(Cm□Cn)form=2,3,4,5,6. In 2013, Mollard determined the exact values ofγ(Cm□Cn)form=3k+2. In this paper, we give lower and upper bounds ofγ(Cm□Cn)withm=3k+1for different cases. In particular,⌈2k+1n/2⌉≤γ(C3k+1□Cn)≤⌊2k+1n/2⌋+k. Based on the established result, the exact values ofγ(Cm□Cn)are determined form=7and 10 by the combination of the dynamic algorithm, and an upper bound forγ(C13□Cn)is provided.

Let γ ( D ) denote the domination number of a digraph D and let C m □ C n denote the Cartesian product of C m and C n , the directed cycles of length n ≥ m ≥ 3 . Liu et al. obtained the exact values of γ ( C m □ C n ) for m up to 6 [Domination number of Cartesian products of directed cycles, Inform. Process. Lett. 111 (2010) 36–39]. Shao et al. determined the exact values of γ ( C m □ C n ) for m = 6 , 7 [On the domination number of Cartesian product of two directed cycles, Journal of Applied Mathematics, Volume 2013, Article ID 619695]. Mollard obtained the exact values of γ ( C m □ C n ) for m = 3 k + 2 [M. Mollard, On domination of Cartesian product of directed cycles: Results for certain equivalence classes of lengths, Discuss. Math. Graph Theory 33(2) (2013) 387–394.]. In this paper, we extend the current known results on C m □ C n with m up to 21. Moreover, the exact values of γ ( C n □ C n ) with n up to 31 are determined.

A dominating set $D$ for a graph $G$ is a subset of $V(G)$ such that any vertex not in $D$ has at least one neighbor in $D$. The domination number $\gamma(G)$ is the size of a minimum dominating set in G. Vizing's conjecture from 1968 states that for the Cartesian product of graphs $G$ and $H$, $\gamma(G)\gamma(H) \leq \gamma(G \Box H)$, and Clark and Suen (2000) proved that $\gamma(G)\gamma(H) \leq 2 \gamma(G \Box H)$. In this paper, we modify the approach of Clark and Suen to prove a variety of similar bounds related to total and paired domination, and also extend these bounds to the $n$-Cartesian product of graphs $A^1$ through $A^n$.
