Eternal domination: criticality and reachability
We show that for every minimum eternal dominating set, D, of a graph G and every vertex v ∈ D, there is a sequence of attacks at the vertices of G which can be defended in such a way that an eternal dominating set not containing v is reached. The study of the stronger assertion that such a set can be reached after a single attack is defended leads to the study of graphs which are critical in th...
متن کاملDomination, eternal domination and clique covering
Eternal and m-eternal domination are concerned with using mobile guards to protect a graph against infinite sequences of attacks at vertices. Eternal domination allows one guard to move per attack, whereas more than one guard may move per attack in the m-eternal domination model. Inequality chains consisting of the domination, eternal domination, m-eternal domination, independence, and clique c...
متن کاملDomination Criticality
For many graphs parameters, criticality is a fundamental issue. For domination number, Brigham, Chinn, and Dutton began the study of graphs where the domination number decreases on the removal of any vertex. Brigham, Haynes, Henning, and Rall defined the term (γ, k)-critical and proved results for graphs that are (γ, 2)-critical or bicritical. A graph G is said to be (γ, k)-critical if γ(G − S)...
متن کاملEternal domination on 3 × n grid graphs
In the eternal dominating set problem, guards form a dominating set on a graph and at each step, a vertex is attacked. After each attack, if the guards can “move” to form a dominating set that contains the attacked vertex, then the guards have successfully defended against the attack. We wish to determine the minimum number of guards required to successfully defend against any possible sequence...
متن کاملEdge Criticality in Graph Domination
A vertex subset D ⊆ V of a graph G = (V, E) is a dominating set of G if each vertex of G is a member of D or is adjacent to a member of D. The cardinality of a smallest dominating set of G is called the domination number of G and a nonempty graph G is q-critical if q is the smallest number of arbitrary edges of G whose removal fromG necessarily increases the domination number of the resulting g...
