Abstract:

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. Graph operations are important methods for constructing new graphs, and they play key roles in the design and analysis of networks.  In this study, we consider the exponential domination number of graph operations including edge corona, neighborhood corona and power.

On Powers of Some Graph Operations

Let $G*H$ be the product $*$ of $G$ and $H$. In this paper we determine the rth power of the graph $G*H$ in terms of $G^r, H^r$ and $G^r*H^r$, when $*$ is the join, Cartesian, symmetric difference, disjunctive, composition, skew and corona product. Then we solve the equation $(G*H)^r=G^r*H^r$. We also compute the Wiener index and Wiener polarity index of the skew product.

Characteristics of Common Neighborhood Graph under Graph Operations and on Cayley Graphs

Let G(V;E) be a graph. The common neighborhood graph (congraph) of G is a graph with vertex set V , in which two vertices are adjacent if and only if they have a common neighbor in G. In this paper, we obtain characteristics of congraphs under graph operations; Graph :::::union:::::, Graph cartesian product, Graph tensor product, and Graph join, and relations between Cayley graphs and its c...

Domination with exponential decay

Let G be a graph and S ⊆ V (G). For each vertex u ∈ S and for each v ∈ V (G) − S, we define d(u, v) = d(v, u) to be the length of a shortest path in 〈V (G)−(S−{u})〉 if such a path exists, and∞ otherwise. Let v ∈ V (G). We define wS(v) = ∑ u∈S 1 2d(u,v)−1 if v 6∈ S, and wS(v) = 2 if v ∈ S. If, for each v ∈ V (G), we have wS(v) ≥ 1, then S is an exponential dominating set. The smallest cardinalit...

On Exponential Domination of Cm × Cn

An exponential dominating set of graph G = (V,E) is a subset D ⊆ V such that ∑ w∈D( 1 2 )d(v,w)−1 ≥ 1 for every v ∈ V, where d(v, w) is the distance between vertices v and w. The exponential domination number, γe(G), is the smallest cardinality of an exponential dominating set. Lower and upper bounds for γe(Cm × Cn) are determined and it is shown that limm,n→∞ γe(Cm×Cn) mn ≤ 1 13 . Two connecti...

On certain graph domination numbers and applications

In this paper we compute for paths and cycles certain graph domination invariants like locating domination number, differentiating domination number, global alliance number etc., We also do some comparison analysis of certain parameters defined by combining the domination measures and the second smallest eigen value of the Laplacian matrix of all connected graphs of order 4.While discussing app...
