چکیده

A total dominating set of a graph is a set of vertices such that every vertex is adjacent to a vertex in the set. We show that given a graph of order n with minimum degree at least 2, one can add at most (n−2√n )/4+O(log n) edges such that the resulting graph has two disjoint total dominating sets, and this bound is best possible.

TOTAL DOMINATION POLYNOMIAL OF GRAPHS FROM PRIMARY SUBGRAPHS

Let $G = (V, E)$ be a simple graph of order $n$. The total dominating set is a subset $D$ of $V$ that every vertex of $V$ is adjacent to some vertices of $D$. The total domination number of $G$ is equal to minimum cardinality of total dominating set in $G$ and denoted by $gamma_t(G)$. The total domination polynomial of $G$ is the polynomial $D_t(G,x)=sum d_t(G,i)$, where $d_t(G,i)$ is the numbe...

On graphs with disjoint dominating and 2-dominating sets

A DD2-pair of a graph G is a pair (D,D2) of disjoint sets of vertices of G such that D is a dominating set and D2 is a 2-dominating set of G. Although there are infinitely many graphs that do not contain a DD2-pair, we show that every graph with minimum degree at least two has a DD2-pair. We provide a constructive characterization of trees that have a DD2-pair and show that K3,3 is the only con...

The Disjoint Total Domination Number of a Graph

The disjoint total domination number of a graph G is the minimum cardinality of the union of two disjoint total dominating sets in G. We also consider an invariant the minimum cardinality of the disjoint union of a dominating set and a total dominating set. In this paper, we initiate a study of these parameters.

Pairs of Disjoint Dominating Sets and the Minimum Degree of Graphs

For a connected graph G of order n and minimum degree δ we prove the existence of two disjoint dominating sets D1 and D2 such that, if δ ≥ 2, then |D1∪D2| ≤ 67n unless G = C4, and, if δ ≥ 5, then |D1 ∪ D2| ≤ 2 δ+1 n. While for the first estimate there are exactly six extremal graphs which are all of order 7, the second estimate is asymptotically best-possible.

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...
