On Domination Critical Graphs with Cutvertices having Connected Domination Number 3

چکیده
A subset of vertices D of a graph G is a dominating set for G if every vertex of G not in D is adjacent to one in D. A dominating set for G is a connected dominating set if it induces a connected subgraph of G. The connected domination number of G, denoted by γc(G), is the minimum cardinality of a connected dominating set. Graph G is said to be k−γc−critical if γc(G) = k but γc(G+e) < k for each edge e / ∈ E(G). In this paper, we investigate the structure of connected domination critical graphs with cutvertices. We also establish a characterization of 3 − γc−critical graphs with cutvertices. Mathematics Subject Classification: 05C69

Matching properties in connected domination critical graphs
A dominating set of vertices S of a graph G is connected if the subgraph G[S] is connected. Let c(G) denote the size of any smallest connected dominating set in G. A graph G is k-connected-critical if c(G)= k, but if any edge e ∈ E(Ḡ) is added to G, then c(G+ e) k − 1. This is a variation on the earlier concept of criticality of edge addition with respect to ordinary domination where a graph G ...
متن کاملSome recent results on domination in graphs
In this paper, we survey some new results in four areas of domination in graphs, namely: (1) the toughness and matching structure of graphs having domination number 3 and which are “critical” in the sense that if one adds any missing edge, the domination number falls to 2; (2) the matching structure of graphs having domination number 3 and which are “critical” in the sense that if one deletes a...
متن کاملDomination and Signed Domination Number of Cayley Graphs
In this paper, we investigate domination number as well as signed domination numbers of Cay(G : S) for all cyclic group G of order n, where n in {p^m; pq} and S = { a^i : i in B(1; n)}. We also introduce some families of connected regular graphs gamma such that gamma_S(Gamma) in {2,3,4,5 }.
متن کاملPaired-Domination Game Played in Graphs
In this paper, we continue the study of the domination game in graphs introduced by Bre{v{s}}ar, Klav{v{z}}ar, and Rall. We study the paired-domination version of the domination game which adds a matching dimension to the game. This game is played on a graph $G$ by two players, named Dominator and Pairer. They alternately take turns choosing vertices of $G$ such that each vertex chosen by Domin...
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...
