Signed Domination of Graphs and (0, 1)-Matrices

چکیده
We briefly review known results about the signed edge domination number of graphs. In the case of bipartite graphs, the signed edge domination number can be viewed in terms of its bi-adjacency matrix. This motivates the introduction of the signed domination number of a (0, 1)-matrix. We investigate the signed domination number for various classes of (0, 1)-matrices, in particular for regular and semi-regular matrices. A conjectured upper bound for the signed edge domination of a graph of order n leads to the conjecture that the signed domination number of an m by n (0, 1)-matrix is bounded above by m + n − 1, and this conjecture is the focus of much of our work. We also determine a lower bound on the signed edge domination number of regular graphs and characterize the case of equality.

Domination 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 }.

A {em weak signed Roman dominating function} (WSRDF) of a graph $G$ with vertex set $V(G)$ is defined as afunction $f:V(G)rightarrow{-1,1,2}$ having the property that $sum_{xin N[v]}f(x)ge 1$ for each $vin V(G)$, where $N[v]$ is theclosed neighborhood of $v$.

In this paper, we investigate domination number, $gamma$, as well as signed domination number, $gamma_{_S}$, of all cubic Cayley graphs of cyclic and quaternion groups. In addition, we show that the domination and signed domination numbers of cubic graphs depend on each other.
