Edge stability in secure graph domination
نویسندگان
چکیده
A subset X of the vertex set of a graph G is a secure dominating set of G if X is a dominating set of G and if, for each vertex u not in X, there is a neighbouring vertex v of u in X such that the swap set (X − {v}) ∪ {u} is again a dominating set of G. The secure domination number of G is the cardinality of a smallest secure dominating set of G. A graph G is p-stable if the largest arbitrary subset of edges whose removal from G does not increase the secure domination number of the resulting graph, has cardinality p. In this paper we study the problem of computing p-stable graphs for all admissible values of p and determine the exact values of p for which members of various infinite classes of graphs are p-stable. We also consider the problem of determining analytically the largest value ωn of p for which a graph of order n can be p-stable. We conjecture that ωn = n−2 and motivate this conjecture.

Edge criticality in secure graph domination
The domination number of a graph is the cardinality of a smallest subset of its vertex set with the property that each vertex of the graph is in the subset or adjacent to a vertex in the subset. This graph parameter has been studied extensively since its introduction during the early 1960s and finds application in the generic setting where the vertices of the graph denote physical entities that...
متن کاملOn the signed Roman edge k-domination in graphs
Let $kgeq 1$ be an integer, and $G=(V,E)$ be a finite and simplegraph. The closed neighborhood $N_G[e]$ of an edge $e$ in a graph$G$ is the set consisting of $e$ and all edges having a commonend-vertex with $e$. A signed Roman edge $k$-dominating function(SREkDF) on a graph $G$ is a function $f:E rightarrow{-1,1,2}$ satisfying the conditions that (i) for every edge $e$of $G$, $sum _{xin N[e]} f...

We also obtainattainable upper bounds on the maximum number of elements in a partitionof a vertex set of a connected graph into geodetic sets, edge geodetic sets,geodetic domin...
متن کاملSecure Edge Domination in Graphs
Let G = (V, E) be a graph without isolated vertices. A secure edge dominating set of G is an edge dominating set F⊆E with the property that for each e ∈ E – F, there exists f∈F adjacent to e such that (F – {f}) ∪ {e} is an edge dominating set. The secure edge domination number γ's(G) of G is the minimum cardinality of a secure edge dominating set of G. In this paper, we initiate a study of the ...
متن کاملOn exponential domination and graph operations
An exponential dominating set of graph $G = (V,E )$ is a subset $Ssubseteq V(G)$ such that $sum_{uin S}(1/2)^{overline{d}{(u,v)-1}}geq 1$ for every vertex $v$ in $V(G)-S$, where $overline{d}(u,v)$ is the distance between vertices $u in S$ and $v in V(G)-S$ in the graph $G -(S-{u})$. The exponential domination number, $gamma_{e}(G)$, is the smallest cardinality of an exponential dominating set....
