Isolate Domination Number and Maximum Degree

چکیده
A subset D of the vertex set V (G) of a graph G is called a dominating set of G if every vertex in V − D is adjacent to a vertex in D. The minimum cardinality of a dominating set is called the domination number and is denoted by γ(G). A dominating set D such that δ(< D >) = 0 is called an isolate dominating set. The minimum cardinality of an isolate dominating set is called the isolate domination number and is denoted by γ0(G). In this paper we investigate the properties of the graphs for which γ0 = n−∆

Hypo-efficient domination and hypo-unique domination
For a graph $G$ let $gamma (G)$ be its domination number. We define a graph G to be (i) a hypo-efficient domination graph (or a hypo-$mathcal{ED}$ graph) if $G$ has no efficient dominating set (EDS) but every graph formed by removing a single vertex from $G$ has at least one EDS, and (ii) a hypo-unique domination graph (a hypo-$mathcal{UD}$ graph) if $G$ has at least two minimum dominating sets...
متن کاملComplexity and approximation ratio of semitotal domination in graphs
A set $S subseteq V(G)$ is a semitotal dominating set of a graph $G$ if it is a dominating set of $G$ andevery vertex in $S$ is within distance 2 of another vertex of $S$. Thesemitotal domination number $gamma_{t2}(G)$ is the minimumcardinality of a semitotal dominating set of $G$.We show that the semitotal domination problem isAPX-complete for bounded-degree graphs, and the semitotal dominatio...
متن کاملOn the ratio of the domination number and the independent domination number in graphs
We let γ(G) and i(G) denote the domination number and the independent domination number ofG, respectively. Recently, Rad and Volkmann conjectured that i(G)/γ(G) ≤ ∆(G)/2 for every graph G, where ∆(G) is the maximum degree of G. In this note, we construct counterexamples of the conjecture for ∆(G) ≥ 6, and give a sharp upper bound of the ratio i(G)/γ(G) by using the maximum degree of G.
متن کاملRoman domination with respect to nondegenerate graph properties: vertex and edge removal
For a graph property P and a graph G, a subset S of the vertices of G is a P-set if the subgraph induced by S has the property P. A P-Roman dominating function on a graph G is a labeling f : V (G) → {0, 1, 2} such that every vertex with label 0 has a neighbor with label 2 and the set of all vertices with label 1 or 2 is a P-set. The P-Roman domination number γPR(G) of G is the minimum of Σv∈V (...
متن کاملIrredundance, secure domination and maximum degree in trees
It is shown that the lower irredundance number and secure domination number of an n vertex tree T with maximum degree 3, are bounded below by 2(n+ 1)/(2 + 3) (T = K1, ) and ( n+ − 1)/(3 − 1), respectively. The bounds are sharp and extremal trees are exhibited. © 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved. MSC: 05C69
