Let G = (V, E) be a graph. A set D ⊆ V is a total restrained dominating set of G if every vertex in V has a neighbor in D and every vertex in V −D has a neighbor in V −D. The cardinality of a minimum total restrained dominating set in G is the total restrained domination number of G. In this paper, we define the concept of total restrained domination edge critical graphs, find a lower bound for...

A set D ⊆ V of a graph G = (V,E) is called a restrained dominating set of G if every vertex not in D is adjacent to a vertex in D and to a vertex in V \D. The MINIMUM RESTRAINED DOMINATION problem is to find a restrained dominating set of minimum cardinality. Given a graph G, and a positive integer k, the RESTRAINED DOMINATION DECISION problem is to decide whether G has a restrained dominating ...

For a graph G = (V, E), a set S ⊆ V (G) is a total dominating set if it is dominating and both 〈S〉 has no isolated vertices. The cardinality of a minimum total dominating set in G is the total domination number. A set S ⊆ V (G) is a total restrained dominating set if it is total dominating and 〈V (G) − S〉 has no isolated vertices. The cardinality of a minimum total restrained dominating set in ...

For a graph G = (V,E), a set D ⊆ V (G) is a total restrained dominating set if it is a dominating set and both 〈D〉 and 〈V (G)−D〉 do not have isolated vertices. The cardinality of a minimum total restrained dominating set in G is the total restrained domination number. A set D ⊆ V (G) is a restrained dominating set if it is a dominating set and 〈V (G) − D〉 does not contain an isolated vertex. Th...

A subset S of vertices of a graph G with no isolated vertex is a total restrained dominating set if every vertex is adjacent to a vertex in S and every vertex in V (G) − S is also adjacent to a vertex in V (G) − S. The total restrained domination number of G is the minimum cardinality of a total restrained dominating set of G. In this paper we initiate the study of total restrained bondage in g...

A graph with no isolated vertices is edge critical with respect to total restrained domination if for any non-edge e of G, the total restrained domination number of G+ e is less than the total restrained domination number of G. We call these graphs γtr-edge critical. In this paper, we characterize all γtr-edge critical unicyclic graphs.

The following fundamental result for the domination number γ(G) of a graph G was proved by Alon and Spencer, Arnautov, Lovász and Payan: γ(G) ≤ ln(δ + 1) + 1 δ + 1 n, where n is the order and δ is the minimum degree of vertices of G. A similar upper bound for the double domination number was found by Harant and Henning [On double domination in graphs. Discuss. Math. Graph Theory 25 (2005) 29–34...
