چکیده

An asteroidal triple (AT) is a set of vertices such that each pair of vertices is joined by a path that avoids the neighborhood of the third. Every AT-free graph contains a dominating pair, a pair of vertices such that for every path between them, every vertex of the graph is within distance one of the path. We say that a graph is a hereditary dominating pair (HDP) graph if each of its connected induced subgraphs contains a dominating pair. In this paper we introduce the notion of frame HDP graphs in order to capture the structure of HDP graphs that contain asteroidal triples. We also determine the maximum diameter of frame HDP graphs.

Dominating Pair Graphs

A pair of vertices of a graph is called a dominating pair if the vertex set of every path between these two vertices is a dominating set of the graph. A graph is a weak dominating pair graph if it has a dominating pair. Further, a graph is called a dominating pair graph if each of its connected induced subgraphs is a weak dominating pair graph. Dominating pair graphs form a class of graphs cont...

On the existence of total dominating subgraphs with a prescribed additive hereditary property

Recently, Bacsó and Tuza gave a full characterization of the graphs for which every connected induced subgraph has a connected dominating subgraph satisfying an arbitrary prescribed hereditary property. Using their result, we derive a similar characterization of the graphs for which any isolate-free induced subgraph has a total dominating subgraph that satisfies a prescribed additive hereditary...

Convex and isometric domination of (weak) dominating pair graphs

A set D of vertices in a graph G is a dominating set if every vertex of G, which is not in D, has a neighbor in D. A set of vertices D in G is convex (respectively, isometric), if all vertices in all shortest paths (respectively, all vertices in one of the shortest paths) between any two vertices in D lie in D. The problem of finding a minimum convex dominating (respectively, isometric dominati...

R-domination Problems on Homogeneously Orderable Graphs

In this paper, we consider r-dominating cliques in homogeneously orderable graphs (a common generalization of dually chordal and distance-hereditary graphs) and their relation to strict r-packing sets. We prove that a homogeneously orderable graph G possesses an r-dominating clique if and only if for any pair of vertices x , y of G d (x , y ) ° r ( x ) / r ( y ) / 1 holds where r : V r N is a g...

Strength of strongest dominating sets in fuzzy graphs

A set S of vertices in a graph G=(V,E) is a dominating set ofG if every vertex of V-S is adjacent to some vertex of S.For an integer k≥1, a set S of vertices is a k-step dominating set if any vertex of $G$ is at distance k from somevertex of S. In this paper, using membership values of vertices and edges in fuzzy graphs, we introduce the concepts of strength of strongestdominating set as well a...
