Domination Problem

A set D ⊆ V is a restrained dominating set of a graph G = (V, E) if every vertex in V\D is adjacent to a vertex in D and a vertex in V\D. Given a graph G and a positive integer k, the restrained domination problem is to check whether G has a restrained dominating set of size at most k. The restrained domination problem is known to be NP-complete even for chordal graphs. In this paper, we propose a linear time algorithm to compute a minimum restrained dominating set of a proper interval graph. We present a polynomial time reduction that proves the NP-completeness of the restrained domination problem for undirected path graphs, chordal bipartite graphs, circle graphs, and planar graphs.

Decision Version

A dominating set $D$ of a graph $G$ without isolated vertices is called semipaired dominating set if $D$ can be partitioned into $2$-element subsets such that the vertices in each set are at distance at most $2$. The semipaired domination number, denoted by $\gamma_{pr2}(G)$ is the minimum cardinality of a semipaired dominating set of $G$. Given a graph $G$ with no isolated vertices, the \textsc{Minimum Semipaired Domination} problem is to find a semipaired dominating set of $G$ of cardinality $\gamma_{pr2}(G)$. The decision version of the \textsc{Minimum Semipaired Domination} problem is already known to be NP-complete for chordal graphs, an important graph class. In this paper, we show that the decision version of the \textsc{Minimum Semipaired Domination} problem remains NP-complete for split graphs, a subclass of chordal graphs. On the positive side, we propose a linear-time algorithm to compute a minimum cardinality semipaired dominating set of block graphs. In addition, we prove that the \textsc{Minimum Semipaired Domination} problem is APX-complete for graphs with maximum degree $3$.

Dominating Function

For a simple graph G=(V,E) with no isolated vertices, a total Roman {3}-dominating function(TR3DF) on G is a function f:V(G)→{0,1,2,3} having the property that (i) ∑w∈N(v)f(w)≥3 if f(v)=0; (ii) ∑w∈N(v)f(w)≥2 if f(v)=1; and (iii) every vertex v with f(v)≠0 has a neighbor u with f(u)≠0 for every vertex v∈V(G). The weight of a TR3DF f is the sum f(V)=∑v∈V(G)f(v) and the minimum weight of a total Roman {3}-dominating function on G is called the total Roman {3}-domination number denoted by γt{R3}(G). In this paper, we show that the total Roman {3}-domination problem is NP-complete for planar graphs and chordal bipartite graphs. Finally, we present a linear-time algorithm to compute the value of γt{R3} for trees.

A set [Formula: see text] of a graph [Formula: see text] is called an efficient dominating set of [Formula: see text] if every vertex [Formula: see text] has exactly one neighbor in [Formula: see text], in other words, the vertex set [Formula: see text] is partitioned to some circles with radius one such that the vertices in [Formula: see text] are the centers of partitions. A generalization of this concept, introduced by Chellali et al. [k-Efficient partitions of graphs, Commun. Comb. Optim. 4 (2019) 109–122], is called [Formula: see text]-efficient dominating set that briefly partitions the vertices of graph with different radiuses. It leads to a partition set [Formula: see text] such that each [Formula: see text] consists a center vertex [Formula: see text] and all the vertices in distance [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text]. In other words, there exist the dominators with various dominating powers. The problem of finding minimum set [Formula: see text] is called the minimum [Formula: see text]-efficient domination problem. Given a positive integer [Formula: see text] and a graph [Formula: see text], the [Formula: see text]-efficient Domination Decision problem is to decide whether [Formula: see text] has a [Formula: see text]-efficient dominating set of cardinality at most [Formula: see text]. The [Formula: see text]-efficient Domination Decision problem is known to be NP-complete even for bipartite graphs [M. Chellali, T. W. Haynes and S. Hedetniemi, k-Efficient partitions of graphs, Commun. Comb. Optim. 4 (2019) 109–122]. Clearly, every graph has a [Formula: see text]-efficient dominating set but it is not correct for efficient dominating set. In this paper, we study the following: [Formula: see text]-efficient domination problem set is NP-complete even in chordal graphs. A polynomial-time algorithm for [Formula: see text]-efficient domination in trees. [Formula: see text]-efficient domination on sparse graphs from the parametrized complexity perspective. In particular, we show that it is [Formula: see text]-hard on d-degenerate graphs while the original dominating set has Fixed Parameter Tractable (FPT) algorithm on d-degenerate graphs. [Formula: see text]-efficient domination on nowhere-dense graphs is FPT.
