Let G be a simple connected graph. The transmission of any vertex v of a graph G is defined as the sum of distances of a vertex v from all other vertices in a graph G. Then the distance signless Laplacian matrix of G is defined as D^{Q}(G)=D(G)+Tr(G), where D(G) denotes the distance matrix of graphs and Tr(G) is the diagonal matrix of vertex transmissions of G. For a given minimum dominating se...

A subset D of vertices of a graph G is a dominating set if for each u ∈ V (G) \ D, u is adjacent to somevertex v ∈ D. The domination number, γ(G) ofG, is the minimum cardinality of a dominating set of G. A setD ⊆ V (G) is a total dominating set if for eachu ∈ V (G), u is adjacent to some vertex v ∈ D. Thetotal domination number, γt (G) of G, is theminimum cardinality of a total dominating set o...

This paper studies learning meaningful node representations for signed graphs, where both positive and negative links exist. problem has been widely studied by meticulously designing expressive graph neural networks, as well capturing the structural information of through traditional structure decomposition methods, e.g., spectral theory. In this paper, we propose a novel representation framewo...

Let G be a connected graph with vertex set V (G). A set S of vertices in G is called a weakly connected dominating set of G if (i) S is a dominating set of G and (ii) the graph obtained from G by removing all edges joining two vertices in V (G) \ S is connected. A weakly connected dominating set S of G is said to be minimum or a γw-set if |S| is minimum among all weakly connected dominating set...

In this paper, we consider r-dominating cliques in homogeneously orderable graphs (a common generalization of dually chordal and distance-hereditary graphs) and their relation to strict r-packing sets. We prove that a homogeneously orderable graph G possesses an r-dominating clique if and only if for any pair of vertices x , y of G d (x , y ) ° r ( x ) / r ( y ) / 1 holds where r : V r N is a g...

A three-valued function f defined on the vertices of a graph G = ( V, E), f : V 4 {-I. 0. I }, is a minus dominating function if the sum of its function values over any closed neighborhood is at least one. That is, for every 1~ t V, ,f(N[o]) > 1, where N[c] consists of I: and every vertex adjacent to 1’. The weight of a minus dominating function is f(V) = c f(u), over all vertices L: t V. The m...

The energy of signed graph is the sum of the absolute values of the eigenvalues of its adjacency matrix. Two signed graphs are said to be equienergetic if they have same energy. In the literature the construction of equienergetic signed graphs are reported. In this paper we obtain the characteristic polynomial and energy of the join of two signed graphs and thereby we give another construction ...

We study the flow spectrum S(G) and the integer flow spectrum S(G) of odd regular graphs. We show that there are signed graphs where the difference between the integer flow number and the flow number is greater than or equal to 1, disproving a conjecture of Raspaud and Zhu [7]. Let G be a (2t + 1)-regular graph. We show that if r ∈ S(G), then r = 2 + 1t or r ≥ 2 + 2 2t−1 . This result generaliz...
