Total domination of Cartesian products of graphs
نویسنده
چکیده
Let γt(G) and γpr(G) denote the total domination and the paired domination numbers of graph G, respectively, and let G ¤ H denote the Cartesian product of graphs G and H. In this paper, we show that γt(G)γt(H) ≤ 5γt(G ¤ H), which improves the known result γt(G)γt(H) ≤ 6γt(G ¤ H) given by Henning and Rall.

Total domination number of grid graphs
We use the link between the existence of tilings in Manhattan metric with {1}-bowls and minimum total dominating sets of Cartesian products of paths and cycles. From the existence of such a tiling, we deduce the asymptotical values of the total domination numbers of these graphs and we deduce the total domination numbers of some Cartesian products of cycles. Finally, we investigate the problem ...
متن کاملPacking and Domination Invariants on Cartesian Products and Direct Products
The dual notions of domination and packing in finite simple graphs were first extensively explored by Meir and Moon in [15]. Most of the lower bounds for the domination number of a nontrivial Cartesian product involve the 2-packing, or closed neighborhood packing, number of the factors. In addition, the domination number of any graph is at least as large as its 2-packing number, and the invaria...
متن کاملOn independent domination numbers of grid and toroidal grid directed graphs
A subset $S$ of vertex set $V(D)$ is an {em indpendent dominating set} of $D$ if $S$ is both an independent and a dominating set of $D$. The {em indpendent domination number}, $i(D)$ is the cardinality of the smallest independent dominating set of $D$. In this paper we calculate the independent domination number of the { em cartesian product} of two {em directed paths} $P_m$ and $P_n$ for arbi...
متن کاملOn the super domination number of graphs
The open neighborhood of a vertex $v$ of a graph $G$ is the set $N(v)$ consisting of all vertices adjacent to $v$ in $G$. For $Dsubseteq V(G)$, we define $overline{D}=V(G)setminus D$. A set $Dsubseteq V(G)$ is called a super dominating set of $G$ if for every vertex $uin overline{D}$, there exists $vin D$ such that $N(v)cap overline{D}={u}$. The super domination number of $G$ is the minimum car...
متن کاملOn the upper total domination number of Cartesian products of graphs
In this paper we continue the investigation of total domination in Cartesian products of graphs first studied in Graphs Combin. 21 (2005), 63–69. A set S of vertices in a graph G is a total dominating set of G if every vertex in G is adjacent to some vertex in S. The maximum cardinality of a minimal total dominating set of G is the upper total domination number of G, denoted by Γt(G). We prove ...
