Let $G$ be a simple graph with vertex set $V$. A double Roman dominating function (DRDF) on $G$ is a function $f:Vrightarrow{0,1,2,3}$ satisfying that if $f(v)=0$, then the vertex $v$ must be adjacent to at least two vertices assigned $2$ or one vertex assigned $3$ under $f$, whereas if $f(v)=1$, then the vertex $v$ must be adjacent to at least one vertex assigned $2$ or $3$. The weight of a DR...

Let G = (V,E) be a graph without isolated vertices. A set S ⊆ V is a total dominating set if every vertex in V is adjacent to at least one vertex in S. A total dominating set S ⊆ V is a paired-dominating set if the induced subgraph G[S] has at least one perfect matching. The paired-domination number γpr(G) is the minimum cardinality of a paired-domination set of G. In this paper, we provide a c...

In this paper, we introduce a new scheme of parameters which generalises many wellknown parameters, including the domination number, the total domination number, the independence number, and the vertex covering number.

A subset S of vertices in a graph G is a global total dominating set, or just GTDS, if S is a total dominating set of both G and G. The global total domination number γgt(G) of G is the minimum cardinality of a GTDS of G. We present bounds for the global total domination number in graphs.

In this paper we determine the exact values of the signed domination number, signed total domination number, and minus domination number of complete multipartite graphs, which substantially generalizes some previous results obtained for special subclasses of complete multipartite graphs such as cliques and complete bipartite graphs.

MacGillivray and Seyffarth (J. Graph Theory 22 (1996), 213–229) proved that planar graphs of diameter three have domination number at most ten. Recently it was shown (J. Graph Theory 40 (2002), 1–25) that a planar graph of diameter three and of radius two has domination number at most six while every sufficiently large planar graph of diameter three has domination number at most seven. In this ...

A graph G with no isolated vertex is total domination vertex critical if for any vertex v of G that is not adjacent to a vertex of degree one, the total domination number of G− v is less than the total domination number of G. These graphs we call γt-critical. If such a graph G has total domination number k, we call it k-γt-critical. We characterize the connected graphs with minimum degree one t...

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 }.
