Let [Formula: see text] be a finite simple graph. A vertex [Formula: see text] is edge-vertex dominated by an edge [Formula: see text] if [Formula: see text] is incident with [Formula: see text] or [Formula: see text] is incident with a vertex adjacent to [Formula: see text]. An edge-vertex dominating set of [Formula: see text] is a subset [Formula: see text] such that every vertex of [Formula: see text] is edge-vertex dominated by an edge of [Formula: see text]. The edge-vertex domination number [Formula: see text] is the minimum cardinality of an edge-vertex dominating set of [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we prove that [Formula: see text] for every tree [Formula: see text] of order [Formula: see text] with [Formula: see text] leaves, and we characterize the trees attaining each of the bounds.

Let [Formula: see text] be a graph and [Formula: see text] A dominating set [Formula: see text] is a set of vertices such that each vertex of [Formula: see text] is either in [Formula: see text] or has at least one neighbor in [Formula: see text]. The minimum cardinality of such a set is called the domination number of [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] [Formula: see text] strongly dominates [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] weakly dominates [Formula: see text] if (i) [Formula: see text] and (ii) [Formula: see text] A set [Formula: see text] is a strong-dominating set, shortly sd-set, (weak-dominating set, shortly wd-set) of [Formula: see text] if every vertex in [Formula: see text] is strongly (weakly) dominated by at least one vertex in [Formula: see text]. The strong (weak) domination number [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] is the minimum cardinality of an sd-set (wd-set). In this paper, we present weak and strong domination numbers of thorn graphs.

Let [Formula: see text] be a positive integer and [Formula: see text] be a simple connected graph. The eccentric distance sum of [Formula: see text] is defined as [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is the maximum distance from [Formula: see text] to any other vertex and [Formula: see text] is the sum of all distances from [Formula: see text]. A set [Formula: see text] is a distance [Formula: see text]-dominating set of [Formula: see text] if for every vertex [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] for some vertex [Formula: see text]. The minimum cardinality among all distance [Formula: see text]-dominating sets of [Formula: see text] is called the distance [Formula: see text]-domination number [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text]. In this paper, the trees among all [Formula: see text]-vertex trees with distance [Formula: see text]-domination number [Formula: see text] having the minimal eccentric distance sum are determined.

Domination In Graphs

Let [Formula: see text] be a simple graph with vertex set [Formula: see text] and edge set [Formula: see text]. An outer-paired dominating set [Formula: see text] of a graph [Formula: see text] is a dominating set such that the subgraph induced by [Formula: see text] has a perfect matching. The outer-paired domination number of [Formula: see text], denoted by [Formula: see text], is the minimum cardinality of an outer-paired dominating set of [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we study the outer-paired domination number of graphs and present some sharp bounds concerning the invariant. Also, we characterize all the trees with [Formula: see text].

Let [Formula: see text] be a graph with vertex set [Formula: see text] and edge set [Formula: see text]. If [Formula: see text] has no isolated vertex, then a disjunctive total dominating set (DTD-set) of [Formula: see text] is a vertex set [Formula: see text] such that every vertex in [Formula: see text] is adjacent to a vertex of [Formula: see text] or has at least two vertices in [Formula: see text] at distance two from it, and the disjunctive total domination number [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] is the minimum cardinality overall DTD-sets of [Formula: see text]. Let [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] be two disjoint copies of a graph [Formula: see text], and let [Formula: see text] be a bijection. Then, a permutation graph [Formula: see text] has the vertex set [Formula: see text] and the edge set [Formula: see text]. For any connected graph [Formula: see text] of order at least three, we prove the sharp bounds [Formula: see text]; we give an example showing that [Formula: see text] can be arbitrarily large. We characterize permutation graphs for which [Formula: see text] holds. Further, we show that [Formula: see text] when [Formula: see text] is a cycle, a path, and a complete [Formula: see text]-partite graph, respectively.

Let [Formula: see text] be a simple and connected graph. A dominating set [Formula: see text] is said to be a vertex covering transversal dominating set if it intersects every minimum vertex covering set of [Formula: see text]. The vertex covering transversal domination number [Formula: see text] is the minimum cardinality among all vertex covering transversal dominating sets of [Formula: see text]. A vertex covering transversal dominating set of minimum cardinality [Formula: see text] is called a minimum vertex covering transversal dominating set or simply a [Formula: see text]-set. In this paper, we prove some general theorems on the vertex covering transversal domination number of a simple connected graph. We also provide some results about [Formula: see text]-sets and try to classify those sets based on their intersection with the minimum vertex covering sets.

Domination Polynomial

Let $G = (V, E)$ be a simple graph of order $n$. A  total dominating set of $G$ is a subset $D$ of $V$, such that every vertex of $V$ is adjacent to at least one vertex in  $D$. The total domination number of $G$ is  minimum cardinality of  total dominating set in $G$ and is denoted by $\gamma_t(G)$. The total domination polynomial of $G$ is the polynomial $D_t(G,x)=\sum_{i=\gamma_t(G)}^n d_t(G,i)$, where $d_t(G,i)$ is the number of total dominating sets of $G$ of size $i$. In this paper, we study roots of the total domination polynomial of some graphs.  We show that  all roots of $D_t(G, x)$ lie in the circle with center $(-1, 0)$ and radius $\sqrt[\delta]{2^n-1}$, where $\delta$ is the minimum degree of $G$. As a consequence, we prove that if $\delta\geq \frac{2n}{3}$,  then every integer root of $D_t(G, x)$ lies in the set $\{-3,-2,-1,0\}$.

Edge Dominating Set

Let \(G=(V,E)\) be a simple graph. A set \(S\subseteq V\) is a dominating set if every vertex in \(V \setminus S\) is adjacent to a vertex in \(S\). The domination number of a graph \(G\), denoted by \(\gamma(G)\) is the minimum cardinality of a dominating set of \(G\). A set \(D \subseteq E\) is an edge dominating set if every edge in \(E\setminus D\) is adjacent to an edge in \(D\). The edge domination number of a graph \(G\), denoted by \(\gamma'(G)\) is the minimum cardinality of an edge dominating set of \(G\). We characterize trees with  domination number equal to twice edge domination number.

Let G be a simple graph with vertex set V(G) and edge set E(G). A set S of vertices in a graph 𝑮(𝑽,𝑬) is called a total dominating set if every vertex 𝒗 ∈ 𝑽 is adjacent to an element of S. The minimum cardinality of a total dominating set of G is called the total domination number of G which is denoted by 𝜸𝒕 (𝑮). The energy of the graph is defined as the sum of the absolute values of the eigen values of the adjacency matrix. In this paper, we computed minimum total dominating energy of a Friendship Graph, Ladder Graph and Helm graph. The Minimum total dominating energy for bistar graphand sun graph is also determined.

Domination In Graphs

Let G = (V, E) be a simple graph. A set S V(G) is a dual dominating set of G (or bi-dominating set of G) if S is a dominating set of G and every vertex in S dominates exactly two vertices in V-S. The dual-domination number γdu(G) (or bi-domination number G bi  ) of a graph G is the minimum cardinality of the minimal dual dominating set (or dual dominating set). In this paper dual domination number and relation with other graph parameters are determined.
