چکیده
This paper aims to provide a detailed survey of existing graph models and algorithms for important problems that arise in different areas of wireless telecommunication. In particular, applications of graph optimization problems such as minimum dominating set, minimum vertex coloring and maximum clique in multihop wireless networks are discussed. Different forms of graph domination have been used extensively to model clustering in wireless ad hoc networks. Graph coloring problems and their variants have been used to model channel assignment and scheduling type problems in wireless networks. Cliques are used to derive bounds on chromatic number, and are used in models of traffic flow, resource allocation, interference, etc. In this paper we survey the solution methods proposed in the literature for these problems and some recent theoretical results that are relevant to this area of research in wireless networks.

On trees attaining an upper bound on the total domination number
A total dominating set of a graph $G$ is a set $D$ of vertices of $G$ such that every vertex of $G$ has a neighbor in $D$. The total domination number of a graph $G$, denoted by $gamma_t(G)$, is~the minimum cardinality of a total dominating set of $G$.

متن کاملComplexity of the game domination problem
The game domination number is a graph invariant that arises from a game, which is related to graph domination in a similar way as the game chromatic number is related to graph coloring. In this paper we show that verifying whether the game domination number of a graph is bounded by a given integer is PSPACEcomplete. This contrasts the situation of the game coloring problem whose complexity is s...
متن کاملAnalogues of cliques for oriented coloring
We examine subgraphs of oriented graphs in the context of oriented coloring that are analogous to cliques in traditional vertex coloring. Bounds on the sizes of these subgraphs are given for planar, outerplanar, and series-parallel graphs. In particular, the main result of the paper is that a planar graph cannot contain an induced subgraph D with more than 36 vertices such that each pair of ver...
متن کاملRealizable Triples for Stratified Domination in Graphs
A graph is 2-stratified if its vertex set is partitioned into two classes, where the vertices in one class are colored red and those in the other class are colored blue. Let F be a 2-stratified graph rooted at some blue vertex v. An F -coloring of a graph G is a red-blue coloring of the vertices of G in which every blue vertex v belongs to a copy of F rooted at v. The F -domination number γF (G...
متن کاملTwo-coloring with many monochromatic cliques in both colors
Color the edges of the n-vertex complete graph red and blue, and suppose that red kcliques are fewer than blue k-cliques. We show that the number of red k-cliques is always less than ckn , where ck ∈ (0, 1) is the unique root of the equation z = (1 − z) + kz(1 − z)k−1. On the other hand, we construct a coloring in which there are at least ckn k −O(nk−1) red k-cliques and at least the same numbe...
