Abstract. Let G = (V,E) be a simple graph. A function f : V → {−1, 1} is called an inverse signed total dominating function if the sum of its function values over any open neighborhood is at most zero. The inverse signed total domination number of G, denoted by γ0 st(G), equals to the maximum weight of an inverse signed total dominating function of G. In this paper, we establish upper bounds on...

Let $kge 1$ be an integer, and let $G$ be a finite and simple graph with vertex set $V(G)$.A weak signed Roman $k$-dominating function (WSRkDF) on a graph $G$ is a function$f:V(G)rightarrow{-1,1,2}$ satisfying the conditions that $sum_{xin N[v]}f(x)ge k$ for eachvertex $vin V(G)$, where $N[v]$ is the closed neighborhood of $v$. The weight of a WSRkDF $f$ is$w(f)=sum_{vin V(G)}f(v)$. The weak si...

3 A function f : V (G) → {+1,−1} defined on the vertices of a graph G is a signed domi4 nating function if for any vertex v the sum of function values over its closed neighborhood 5 is at least one. The signed domination number γs(G) of G is the minimum weight of a 6 signed dominating function on G. By simply changing “{+1,−1}” in the above definition 7 to “{+1, 0,−1}”, we can define the minus ...

Listing, generating or enumerating objects of specified type is one of the principal tasks in algorithmics. In graph algorithms one often enumerates vertex subsets satisfying a certain property. We study the enumeration of all minimal connected dominating sets of an input graph from various graph classes of bounded chordality. We establish enumeration algorithms as well as lower and upper bound...

Let G = (V, E) be a simple graph on vertex set V and define a function f : V → {−1, 1}. The function f is a signed dominating function if for every vertex x ∈ V , the closed neighborhood of x contains more vertices with function value 1 than with −1. The signed domination number of G, γs(G), is the minimum weight of a signed dominating function on G. Let G denote the complement of G. In this pa...

Let G be a simple graph without isolated vertices with vertex set V (G) and edge set E(G) and let k be a positive integer. A function f : E(G) → {−1, 1} is said to be a signed star k-dominating function on G if ∑ e∈E(v) f(e) ≥ k for every vertex v of G, where E(v) = {uv ∈ E(G) | u ∈ N(v)}. A set {f1, f2, . . . , fd} of signed star k-dominating functions on G with the property that ∑d i=1 fi(e) ...

The maximum number of minimal dominating sets that a graph on n vertices can have is known to be at most 1.7159. This upper bound might not be tight, since no examples of graphs with 1.5705 or more minimal dominating sets are known. For several classes of graphs, we substantially improve the upper bound on the maximum number of minimal dominating sets in graphs on n vertices. In some cases, we ...

A vertex subset S in a graph G is a dominating set if every vertex not contained in S has a neighbor in S. A dominating set S is a connected dominating set if the subgraph G[S] induced by S is connected. A connected dominating set S is a minimal connected dominating set if no proper subset of S is also a connected dominating set. We prove that there exists a constant ǫ > 10 such that every grap...

Let k ≥ 1 be an integer, and let G be a finite and simple graph with vertex set V (G). A signed total Italian k-dominating function (STIkDF) on a graph G is a functionf : V (G) → {−1, 1, 2} satisfying the conditions that $sum_{xin N(v)}f(x)ge k$ for each vertex v ∈ V (G), where N(v) is the neighborhood of $v$, and each vertex u with f(u)=-1 is adjacent to a vertex v with f(v)=2 or to two vertic...
