چکیده

A function f defined on the vertices of a graph G = (V ,E), f : V → {−1, 0, 1} is a total minus dominating function (TMDF) if the sum of its values over any open neighborhood is at least one. The weight of a TMDF is the sum of its function values over all vertices. The total minus domination number, denoted by −t (G), of G is the minimum weight of a TMDF on G. In this paper, a sharp lower bound on −t of k-partite graphs is given. © 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Minus domination number in k-partite graphs

A function f de1ned on the vertices of a graph G = (V; E); f :V → {−1; 0; 1} is a minus dominating function if the sum of its values over any closed neighborhood is at least one. The weight of a minus dominating function is f(V ) = ∑ v∈V f(v). The minus domination number of a graph G, denoted by −(G), equals the minimum weight of a minus dominating function of G. In this paper, a sharp lower bo...

An application of Turán theorem to domination in graphs ∗

3 A function f : V (G) → {+1,−1} defined on the vertices of a graph G is a signed domi4 nating function if for any vertex v the sum of function values over its closed neighborhood 5 is at least one. The signed domination number γs(G) of G is the minimum weight of a 6 signed dominating function on G. By simply changing “{+1,−1}” in the above definition 7 to “{+1, 0,−1}”, we can define the minus ...

Twin minus domination in directed graphs

Let $D=(V,A)$ be a finite simple directed graph. A function$f:Vlongrightarrow {-1,0,1}$ is called a twin minus dominatingfunction (TMDF) if $f(N^-[v])ge 1$ and $f(N^+[v])ge 1$ for eachvertex $vin V$. The twin minus domination number of $D$ is$gamma_{-}^*(D)=min{w(f)mid f mbox{ is a TMDF of } D}$. Inthis paper, we initiate the study of twin minus domination numbersin digraphs and present some lo...
