چکیده

We show that for any fixed i, j ≥ 1, the k-Dominating Set problem restricted to graphs that do not have Ki,j as a subgraph is fixed parameter tractable (FPT) and has a polynomial kernel. This result implies that this problem restricted to bounded-degenerate graphs has a polynomial kernel, solving an open problem posed by Alon and Gutner in [3]. Our result extends the class of graphs for which the k-Dominating Set problem is known to have (1) FPT algorithms and (2) polynomial kernels, to the class of Ki,j-free graphs.

Total 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...

TOTAL DOMINATION POLYNOMIAL OF GRAPHS FROM PRIMARY SUBGRAPHS

Let $G = (V, E)$ be a simple graph of order $n$. The total dominating set is a subset $D$ of $V$ that every vertex of $V$ is adjacent to some vertices of $D$. The total domination number of $G$ is equal to minimum cardinality of total dominating set in $G$ and denoted by $gamma_t(G)$. The total domination polynomial of $G$ is the polynomial $D_t(G,x)=sum d_t(G,i)$, where $d_t(G,i)$ is the numbe...

On the domination polynomials of non P4-free graphs

A graph $G$ is called $P_4$-free, if $G$ does not contain an induced subgraph $P_4$. The domination polynomial of a graph $G$ of order $n$ is the polynomial $D(G,x)=sum_{i=1}^{n} d(G,i) x^{i}$, where $d(G,i)$ is the number of dominating sets of $G$ of size $i$. Every root of $D(G,x)$ is called a domination root of $G$. In this paper we state and prove formula for the domination polynomial of no...

Kernelization Hardness of Connectivity Problems in d-Degenerate Graphs

A graph is d-degenerate if its every subgraph contains a vertex of degree at most d. For instance, planar graphs are 5-degenerate. Inspired by recent work by Philip, Raman and Sikdar, who have shown the existence of a polynomial kernel for DOMINATING SET in d-degenerate graphs, we investigate kernelization hardness of problems that include connectivity requirement in this class of graphs. Our m...
