In this paper we consider the (d, n)-domination number, γd,n(Qn), the distance-d domination number γd(Qn) and the connected distance-d domination number γc,d(Qn) of ndimensional hypercube graphs Qn. We show that for 2 ≤ d ≤ bn/2c, and n ≥ 4, γd,n(Qn) ≤ 2n−2d+2, improving the bound of Xie and Xu [19]. We also show that γd(Qn) ≤ 2n−2d+2−r, for 2 − 1 ≤ n − 2d + 1 < 2 − 1, and γc,d(Qn) ≤ 2n−d, for ...

Let G = (V, E) be a graph without isolated vertices. A set D ⊆ V is a d-distance paired-dominating set of G if D is a d-distance dominating set of G and the induced subgraph 〈D〉 has a perfect matching. The minimum cardinality of a d-distance paired-dominating set for graph G is the d-distance paired-domination number, denoted by γd p(G). In this paper, we study the ddistance paired-domination n...

This paper is motivated by the concept of the signed k-domination problem and dedicated to the complexity of the problem on graphs. For any fixed nonnegative integer k, we show that the signed k-domination problem is NP-complete for doubly chordal graphs. For strongly chordal graphs and distance-hereditary graphs, we show that the signed k-domination problem can be solved in polynomial time. We...

A graph is distance-hereditary if the distance between any two vertices in a connected induced subgraph is the same as in the original graph. This paper presents e-cient algorithms for solving the weighted connected k-domination and the weighted k-dominating clique problems in distance-hereditary graphs. c © 2001 Elsevier Science B.V.

Let G = (V,E) be a simple graph. A subset Dof V (G) is a (k, r)dominating set if for every vertexv ∈ V −D, there exists at least k vertices in D which are at a distance utmost r from v in [1]. The minimum cardinality of a (k, r)-dominating set of G is called the (k, r)-domination number of G and is denoted by γ(k,r)(G). In this paper, minimal (k, r)dominating sets are characterized. It is prove...

The k-domination number of a graph is the minimum size of a set X such that every vertex of G is in distance at most k from X. We give a linear time constant-factor approximation algorithm for k-domination number in classes of graphs with bounded expansion, which include e.g. proper minor-closed graph classes, classes closed on topological minors or classes of graphs that can be drawn on a fixe...
