The diameter of a graph can be affected by the addition or deletion of edges. In this paper, we examine the Cartesian product of graphs whose diameter increases (decreases) by the deletion (addition) of a single edge. The problems of minimality and maximality of the Cartesian product of graphs with respect to its diameter are also solved. These problems are motivated by the fact that most of the interconnection networks are graph products and a good network must be hard to disrupt and the transmissions must remain connected even if some vertices or edges fail.

Let G = (V (G),E(G)) be any simple undirected graph. The open hop neighborhood of v ϵ V(G) is the set 𝑁_𝐺^2(𝑣) = {u ϵ V(G):  𝑑_𝐺 (u,v) = 2}. Then G induces a topology τ_G on V (G) with base consisting of sets of the form F_G^2[A] = V(G) \ N_G^2 [A] where N_G^2 [A] = A ∪ {v ϵ V(G):  𝑁_𝐺^2(𝑣) ∩ A ≠ ∅ } and A ranges over all subsets of V (G). In this paper, we describe the topologies induced by the complement of a graph, the join, the corona, the composition and the Cartesian product of graphs.

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 $A^n$.
