Further characterization of induced paired domination number of a graph

چکیده
A set S V is a induced -paired dominating set if S is a dominating set of G and the induced subgraph is a perfect matching. The induced paired domination number ip(G) is the minimum cardinality taken over all paired dominating sets in G. The minimum number of colours required to colour all the vertices so that adjacent vertices do not receive the same colour and is denoted by (G). The authors4 characterized the classes of graphs whose sum of induced paired domination number and chromatic number equals to 2n 6, for any n 4. In this paper we extend the above result and characterize the classes of all graphs whose sum of induced paired domination number and chromatic number equals to 2n 7, for any n 4.

Paired-Domination Game Played in Graphs
In this paper, we continue the study of the domination game in graphs introduced by Bre{v{s}}ar, Klav{v{z}}ar, and Rall. We study the paired-domination version of the domination game which adds a matching dimension to the game. This game is played on a graph $G$ by two players, named Dominator and Pairer. They alternately take turns choosing vertices of $G$ such that each vertex chosen by Domin...
متن کاملCoverings, matchings and paired domination in fuzzy graphs using strong arcs
The concepts of covering and matching in fuzzy graphs using strong arcs are introduced and obtained the relationship between them analogous to Gallai’s results in graphs. The notion of paired domination in fuzzy graphs using strong arcs is also studied. The strong paired domination number γspr of complete fuzzy graph and complete bipartite fuzzy graph is determined and obtained bounds for the s...
متن کاملA characterization relating domination, semitotal domination and total Roman domination in trees
A total Roman dominating function on a graph $G$ is a function $f: V(G) rightarrow {0,1,2}$ such that for every vertex $vin V(G)$ with $f(v)=0$ there exists a vertex $uin V(G)$ adjacent to $v$ with $f(u)=2$, and the subgraph induced by the set ${xin V(G): f(x)geq 1}$ has no isolated vertices. The total Roman domination number of $G$, denoted $gamma_{tR}(G)$, is the minimum weight $omega(f)=sum_...
متن کاملA Characterization of Cubic Graphs with Paired-Domination Number Three-Fifths Their Order
A paired-dominating set of a graph is a dominating set of vertices whose induced subgraph has a perfect matching, while the paired-domination number is the minimum cardinality of a paired-dominating set in the graph. Recently, Chen, Sun and Xing [Acta Mathematica Scientia Series A Chinese Edition 27(1) (2007), 166–170] proved that a cubic graph has paired-domination number at most three-fifths ...
متن کاملA characterization of trees with equal total domination and paired-domination numbers
Let G = (V,E) be a graph without isolated vertices. A set S ⊆ V is a total dominating set if every vertex in V is adjacent to at least one vertex in S. A total dominating set S ⊆ V is a paired-dominating set if the induced subgraph G[S] has at least one perfect matching. The paired-domination number γpr(G) is the minimum cardinality of a paired-domination set of G. In this paper, we provide a c...
