given a graph $g$, the total dominator coloring problem seeks aproper coloring of $g$ with the additional property that everyvertex in the graph is adjacent to all vertices of a color class. weseek to minimize the number of color classes. we initiate to studythis problem on several classes of graphs, as well as findinggeneral bounds and characterizations. we also compare the totaldominator chro...

A node in a graph G = (V,E) is said to dominate itself and all nodes adjacent to it. A set S C V is a dominating set for G if each node in V is dominated by some node in S and is a double dominating set for G if each node in V is dominated by at least two nodes in S. First we give a brief survey of Nordhaus-Gaddum results for several domination-related parameters. Then we present new inequaliti...

A vertex of a graph is said to dominate itself and all of its neighbors. A double dominating set of a graph G is a set D of vertices of G such that every vertex of G is dominated by at least two vertices of D. The double domination number of a graph G is the minimum cardinality of a double dominating set of G. For a graph G = (V,E), a subset D ⊆ V (G) is a 2dominating set if every vertex of V (...

We consider two general frameworks for multiple domination, which are called 〈r, s〉-domination and parametric domination. They generalise and unify {k}-domination, k-domination, total k-domination and k-tuple domination. In this paper, known upper bounds for the classical domination are generalised for the 〈r, s〉-domination and parametric domination numbers. These generalisations are based on t...

‎‎Let $G=(V‎, ‎E)$ be a simple graph with vertex set $V$ and edge set $E$‎. ‎A {em mixed Roman dominating function} (MRDF) of $G$ is a function $f:Vcup Erightarrow {0,1,2}$ satisfying the condition that every element $xin Vcup E$ for which $f(x)=0$ is adjacent‎‎or incident to at least one element $yin Vcup E$ for which $f(y)=2$‎. ‎The weight of an‎‎MRDF $f$ is $sum _{xin Vcup E} f(x)$‎. ‎The mi...
