Dominating Set Counting in Graph Classes

چکیده
We make an attempt to understand the dominating set counting problem in graph classes from the viewpoint of polynomial-time computability. We give polynomial-time algorithms to count the number of dominating sets (and minimum dominating sets) in interval graphs and trapezoid graphs. They are based on dynamic programming. With the help of dynamic update on a binary tree, we further reduce the time complexity. On the other hand, we prove that counting the number of dominating sets (and minimum dominating sets) in split graphs and chordal bipartite graphs is #P-complete. These results are in vivid contrast with the recent results on counting the independent sets and the matchings in chordal graphs and chordal bipartite graphs.

Independent domination in directed graphs
In this paper we initialize the study of independent domination in directed graphs. We show that an independent dominating set of an orientation of a graph is also an independent dominating set of the underlying graph, but that the converse is not true in general. We then prove existence and uniqueness theorems for several classes of digraphs including orientations of complete graphs, paths, tr...
متن کاملOn the Maximum Number of Dominating Classes in Graph Coloring
In this paper we investigate the dominating- -color number، of a graph G. That is the maximum number of color classes that are also dominating when G is colored using colors. We show that where is the join of G and H. This result allows us to construct classes of graphs such that and thus provide some information regarding two questions raised in [1] and [2].

متن کاملThe convex domination subdivision number of a graph
Let $G=(V,E)$ be a simple graph. A set $Dsubseteq V$ is adominating set of $G$ if every vertex in $Vsetminus D$ has atleast one neighbor in $D$. The distance $d_G(u,v)$ between twovertices $u$ and $v$ is the length of a shortest $(u,v)$-path in$G$. An $(u,v)$-path of length $d_G(u,v)$ is called an$(u,v)$-geodesic. A set $Xsubseteq V$ is convex in $G$ ifvertices from all $(a, b)$-geodesics belon...
متن کامل$k$-tuple total restrained domination/domatic in graphs
For any integer $kgeq 1$, a set $S$ of vertices in a graph $G=(V,E)$ is a $k$-tuple total dominating set of $G$ if any vertex of $G$ is adjacent to at least $k$ vertices in $S$, and any vertex of $V-S$ is adjacent to at least $k$ vertices in $V-S$. The minimum number of vertices of such a set in $G$ we call the $k$-tuple total restrained domination number of $G$. The maximum num...
