2-domination subdivision number of graphs

چکیده
In a graph G, a vertex dominates itself and its neighbors. A subset S ⊆ V (G) is a 2-dominating set of G if S dominates every vertex of V (G) \ S at least twice. The 2-domination number γ2(G) is the minimum cardinality of a 2-dominating set of G. The 2-domination subdivision number sdγ2(G) is the minimum number of edges that must be subdivided (each edge in G can be subdivided at most once) in order to increase the 2domination number. In this paper, we establish upper bounds on the 2-domination subdivision number for arbitrary graphs in terms of vertex degree and for several graph classes. Then we present some conditions on G which are sufficient to imply that sdγ2(G) = 1.

Total Roman domination subdivision number in graphs
A {em Roman dominating function} on a graph $G$ is a function $f:V(G)rightarrow {0,1,2}$ satisfying the condition that every vertex $u$ for which $f(u)=0$ is adjacent to at least one vertex $v$ for which $f(v)=2$. A {em total Roman dominating function} is a Roman dominating function with the additional property that the subgraph of $G$ induced by the set of all vertices of positive weight has n...
متن کاملTotal perfect codes, OO-irredundant and total subdivision in graphs
Let $G=(V(G),E(G))$ be a graph, $gamma_t(G)$. Let $ooir(G)$ be the total domination and OO-irredundance number of $G$, respectively. A total dominating set $S$ of $G$ is called a $textit{total perfect code}$ if every vertex in $V(G)$ is adjacent to exactly one vertex of $S$. In this paper, we show that if $G$ has a total perfect code, then $gamma_t(G)=ooir(G)$. As a consequence, ...
متن کاملDomination number of graph fractional powers
For any $k in mathbb{N}$, the $k$-subdivision of graph $G$ is a simple graph $G^{frac{1}{k}}$, which is constructed by replacing each edge of $G$ with a path of length $k$. In [Moharram N. Iradmusa, On colorings of graph fractional powers, Discrete Math., (310) 2010, No. 10-11, 1551-1556] the $m$th power of the $n$-subdivision of $G$ has been introduced as a fractional power of $G$, denoted by ...
متن کاملOn the Total Domination Subdivision Numbers of Grid Graphs
A set S of vertices in a graph G(V,E) is called a total dominating set if every vertex v ∈ V is adjacent to an element of S. The total domination number of a graph G denoted by γt(G) is the minimum cardinality of a total dominating set in G. Total domination subdivision number denoted by sdγt is the minimum number of edges that must be subdivided to increase the total domination number. Here we...
متن کاملInfluence of edge subdivision on the convex domination number
We study the influence of edge subdivision on the convex domination number. We show that in general an edge subdivision can arbitrarily increase and arbitrarily decrease the convex domination number. We also find some bounds for unicyclic graphs and we investigate graphs G for which the convex domination number changes after subdivision of any edge in G.
