Hardness of r-dominating set on Graphs of Diameter (r + 1)

چکیده
The dominating set problem has been extensively studied in the realm of parameterized complexity. It is one of the most common sources of reductions while proving the parameterized intractability of problems. In this paper, we look at dominating set and its generalization r-dominating set on graphs of bounded diameter in the realm of parameterized complexity. We show that Dominating set remains W[2]-hard on graphs of diameter 2, while r-dominating set remains W[2]-hard on graphs of diameter r+1. The lower bound on the diameter in our intractability results is the best possible, as r-dominating set is clearly polynomial time solvable on graphs of diameter at most r.

A note on the Roman domatic number of a digraph
Roman dominating function} on a digraph $D$ with vertex set $V(D)$ is a labeling$fcolon V(D)to {0, 1, 2}$such that every vertex with label $0$ has an in-neighbor with label $2$. A set ${f_1,f_2,ldots,f_d}$ ofRoman dominating functions on $D$ with the property that $sum_{i=1}^d f_i(v)le 2$ for each $vin V(D)$,is called a {em Roman dominating family} (of functions) on $D$....
متن کاملDirected domination in oriented hypergraphs
ErdH{o}s [On Sch"utte problem, Math. Gaz. 47 (1963)] proved that every tournament on $n$ vertices has a directed dominating set of at most $log (n+1)$ vertices, where $log$ is the logarithm to base $2$. He also showed that there is a tournament on $n$ vertices with no directed domination set of cardinality less than $log n - 2 log log n + 1$. This notion of directed domination number has been g...
متن کاملStrength of strongest dominating sets in fuzzy graphs
A set S of vertices in a graph G=(V,E) is a dominating set ofG if every vertex of V-S is adjacent to some vertex of S.For an integer k≥1, a set S of vertices is a k-step dominating set if any vertex of $G$ is at distance k from somevertex of S. In this paper, using membership values of vertices and edges in fuzzy graphs, we introduce the concepts of strength of strongestdominating set as well a...
متن کاملTotal domination in $K_r$-covered graphs
The inflation $G_{I}$ of a graph $G$ with $n(G)$ vertices and $m(G)$ edges is obtained from $G$ by replacing every vertex of degree $d$ of $G$ by a clique, which is isomorph to the complete graph $K_{d}$, and each edge $(x_{i},x_{j})$ of $G$ is replaced by an edge $(u,v)$ in such a way that $uin X_{i}$, $vin X_{j}$, and two different edges of $G$ are replaced by non-adjacent edges of $G_{I}$. T...
متن کاملOn quasi-zero divisor graphs of non-commutative rings
Let $R$ be an associative ring with identity. A ring $R$ is called reversible if $ab=0$, then $ba=0$ for $a,bin R$. The quasi-zero-divisor graph of $R$, denoted by $Gamma^*(R)$ is an undirected graph with all nonzero zero-divisors of $R$ as vertex set and two distinct vertices $x$ and $y$ are adjacent if and only if there exists $0neq rin R setminus (mathrm{ann}(x) cup mathrm{ann}(y))$ such tha...
