Throughout this paper, consider G = (V,E) as a connected graph. A subset D of V(G) is a set dominating set of G if for every M  V / D there exists a non-empty set N of D such that the induced sub graph <MUN> is connected. A subset D of the vertex set of a graph G is called a co-secure dominating set of a graph if D is a dominating set, and for each u' D there exists a vertex v'V / D such that u'v' is an edge and D \u'v' is a dominating set. A co-secure dominating set D is a co-secure set dominating set of G if D is also a set dominating set of G. The co-secure set domination number G s cs γ is the minimum cardinality of a co-secure set dominating set. In this paper we initiate the study of this new parameter & also determine the co-secure set domination number of some standard graphs and obtain its bounds.

In a simple, finite and undirected graph [Formula: see text] with vertex set [Formula: see text] and edge set [Formula: see text], a subset [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] is said to be a degree equitable dominating set if for every [Formula: see text] there exists a vertex [Formula: see text] such that [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] denotes the degree of [Formula: see text] in [Formula: see text]. The minimum cardinality of such a dominating set is denoted by [Formula: see text] and is called the equitable domination number of [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we introduce Complementary Equitably Totally Disconnected Equitable domination in graphs and obtain some interesting results. Also, we discuss some bounds of this new domination parameter.

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 edge set [Formula: see text] and vertex set [Formula: see text]. For a connected graph [Formula: see text], a vertex set [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] is said to be a geodetic set if every vertex in [Formula: see text] lies in a shortest path between any pair of vertices in [Formula: see text]. If the geodetic set [Formula: see text] is dominating, then [Formula: see text] is geodetic dominating set. A vertex set [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] is said to be a restrained geodetic dominating set if [Formula: see text] is geodetic, dominating and the subgraph induced by [Formula: see text] has no isolated vertex. The minimum cardinality of such set is called restrained geodetic domination (rgd) number. In this paper, rgd number of certain classes of graphs and 2-self-centered graphs was discussed. The restrained geodetic domination is discussed in graph operations such as Cartesian product and join of graphs. Restrained geodetic domination in corona product between a general connected graph and some classes of graphs is also discussed in this paper.

Given a connected graph $G$, we say that $S\subseteq V(G)$ is a cost effective dominating set in $G$ if, each vertex in $S$ is adjacent to at least as many vertices outside $S$ as inside $S$ and that every vertex outside $S$ is adjacent to at least one vertex in $S$. The minimum cardinality of a cost effective dominating set is the cost effective domination number of $G$. The maximum cardinality of a cost effective dominating set is the upper cost effective domination number of $G$, and is denoted by $\gamma_{ce}^+(G).$ A cost effective dominating set is said to be minimal if it does not contain a proper subset which is itself a cost effective dominating in $G$. The maximum cardinality of a minimal cost effective dominating set in a graph $G$ is the minimal cost effective domination number of $G$, and is denoted by $\gamma_{mce}(G)$. In this paper we provide bounds on upper cost effective domination number and minimal cost effective domination number of a connected graph G and characterized those graphs whose upper and minimal cost effective domination numbers are either $1, 2$ or $n-1.$ We also establish a Nordhaus-Gaddum type result for the introduced parameters and solve some realization problems.

Let [Formula: see text] be a simple and undirected graph with vertex set [Formula: see text]. A set [Formula: see text] is called a dominating set of [Formula: see text], if every vertex in [Formula: see text] is adjacent to at least one vertex in [Formula: see text]. The minimum cardinality of a dominating set of [Formula: see text] is called the domination number of [Formula: see text], denoted by [Formula: see text]. A dominating set [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] is called isolate dominating, if the induced subgraph [Formula: see text] of [Formula: see text] contains at least one isolated vertex. The minimum cardinality of an isolate dominating set of [Formula: see text] is called the isolate domination number of [Formula: see text], denoted by [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we show that for every proper interval graph [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text]. Moreover, we provide a constructive characterization for trees with equal domination number and isolate domination number. These solve part of an open problem posed by Hamid and Balamurugan [Isolate domination in graphs, Arab J. Math. Sci. 22(2) (2016) 232–241].

Let $G = (V, E)$ be a connected graph. A set $S$ of vertices in $G$ is a perfect dominating set if every vertex $v$ in $V-S$ is adjacent to exactly one vertex in $S$. A perfect dominating set $S$ is said to be a neighborhood connected perfect dominating set (ncpd-set) if the induced subgraph $$ is connected. The minimum cardinality of a ncpd-set of $G$ is called the neighborhood connected perfect domination number of $G$ and is denoted by $\gamma_{ncp}(G)$. In this paper we initiate a study of this parameter.

For a graph G a subset D of the vertex set of G is a k-dominating set if every vertex not in D has at least k neighbors in D. The k-domination number k(G) is the minimum cardinality among the k-dominating sets of G. Note that the 1-domination number 1(G) is the usual domination number (G). Fink and Jacobson showed in 1985 that the inequality ?k(G)?(G)+k?2 is valid for every connected graph G. In this paper, we concentrate on the case k = 2, where k can be equal to ?, and we characterize all claw-free graphs and all line graphs G with ?(G) = ?2(G).

Let [Formula: see text] be a connected graph. Brigham et al., Resolving domination in graphs, Math. Bohem. 1 (2003) 25–36 defined a resolving dominating set as a set [Formula: see text] of vertices of a connected graph [Formula: see text] that is both resolving and dominating. A resolving dominating is a [Formula: see text]-movable resolving dominating set of [Formula: see text] if for every [Formula: see text], either [Formula: see text] is a resolving dominating set or there exists a vertex [Formula: see text] such that [Formula: see text] is a resolving dominating set of [Formula: see text]. The minimum cardinality of a [Formula: see text]-movable resolving dominating set of [Formula: see text], denoted by [Formula: see text] is the [Formula: see text]-movable[Formula: see text]-domination number of [Formula: see text]. A [Formula: see text]-movable resolving dominating set with cardinality [Formula: see text] is called a [Formula: see text]-set of [Formula: see text]. In this paper, we characterize the [Formula: see text]-movable resolving dominating sets in the join and lexicographic product of two graphs and determine the bounds or exact values of the [Formula: see text]-movable resolving domination number of these graphs.

Abstract Let G = (V;E) be a graph. A set S ⊂ V (G) is a hop dominating set of G if for every v ∈ V - S, there exists u ∈ S such that d(u; v) = 2. The minimum cardinality of a hop dominating set of G is called a hop domination number of G and is denoted by γh(G). In this paper we characterize the family of trees and unicyclic graphs for which γh(G) = γt(G) and γh(G) = γc(G) where γt(G) and γc(G) are the total domination and connected domination numbers of G respectively. We then present the strong equality of hop domination and hop independent domination numbers for trees. Hop domination numbers of shadow graph and mycielskian graph of graph are also discussed.
