A set S of vertices of a graphG = (V,E) is a dominating set if every vertex of V (G)\S is adjacent to some vertex in S. The domination number γ(G) is the minimum cardinality of a dominating set of G. The domination subdivision number sdγ(G) is the minimum number of edges that must be subdivided (each edge in G can be subdivided at most once) in order to increase the domination number. Velammal ...

We compute the light hadron mass spectrum at β = 5.7 using the O(a)improved Sheikholeslami-Wohlert (SW) fermion action with two choices of the clover coefficient: the classical value, c = 1, and a mean-field or tadpoleimproved estimate c = 1.57. We compare our results with those of the GF11 Collaboration who use the Wilson fermion action (c = 0). We find that changing c from zero to 1 and 1.57 ...

A set S of vertices of a graph G = (V, E) without isolated vertex is a total dominating set if every vertex of V (G) is adjacent to some vertex in S. The total domination number γt(G) is the minimum cardinality of a total dominating set of G. The total domination subdivision number sdγt(G) is the minimum number of edges that must be subdivided (each edge in G can be subdivided at most once) in ...

We construct a locally-lexicographic SSOR preconditioner to accelerate the parallel iterative solution of linear systems of equations for two improved discretizations of lattice fermions: (i) the Sheikholeslami-Wohlert scheme where a non-constant blockdiagonal term is added to the Wilson fermion matrix and (ii) renormalization group improved actions which incorporate couplings beyond nearest ne...

We discuss the improvement of flavour non-singlet point and one-link lattice quark operators, which describe the quark currents and the first moment of the DIS structure functions respectively. Suitable bases of improved operators are given, and the corresponding renormalisation factors and improvement coefficients are calculated in one-loop lattice perturbation theory, using the Sheikholeslami...

Last year Collins, Edwards, Heller, and Sloan [1] studied heavy Wilson quarks [2] with the improved action of Sheikholeslami and Wohlert [3]. In lattice units the heavy-quark mass mQa typically exceeded unity, a regime in which the numerical results require a nonrelativistic interpretation [4,5] just as in NRQCD [6,7]. Ref. [1] presents a test of the nonrelativistic interpretation that removes ...

We investigate a tadpole-improved tree-level-O(a)-accurate action, D234c, on coarse lattices, using the mean link in Landau gauge to measure the tadpole contribution. We find that D234c shows much better rotational invariance than Sheikholeslami-Wohlert, and that mean-link tadpole improvement gives much better hadron mass scaling than plaquette tadpole improvement, with finite-a errors at 0.25 ...

We calculate the critical value of the hopping parameter, κ c , in O(a) improved Lattice QCD, to two loops in perturbation theory. We employ the Sheikholeslami-Wohlert (clover) improved action for Wilson fermions. The quantity which we study is a typical case of a vacuum expectation value resulting in an additive renormalization; as such, it is characterized by a power (linear) divergence in th...

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,±2, . . . ,±k} 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)}. The signed star {k}-domination number of a graph G is γ{k}SS(G) = min{ ∑ e∈E f(e) | f is a S...

The rings considered in this article are commutative with identity which are not fields. Let R be a ring. A. Alilou, J. Amjadi and Sheikholeslami introduced and investigated a graph whose vertex set is the set of all nontrivial ideals of R and distinct vertices I, J are joined by an edge in this graph if and only if either ann(I)J = (0) or ann(J)I = (0). They called this graph as a new graph as...
