A set D of vertices in a graph G is a dominating set if every vertex of G, which is not in D, has a neighbor in D. A set of vertices D in G is convex (respectively, isometric), if all vertices in all shortest paths (respectively, all vertices in one of the shortest paths) between any two vertices in D lie in D. The problem of finding a minimum convex dominating (respectively, isometric dominati...

An exponential dominating set of graph $G = (V,E )$ is a subset $Ssubseteq V(G)$ such that $sum_{uin S}(1/2)^{overline{d}{(u,v)-1}}geq 1$ for every vertex $v$ in $V(G)-S$, where $overline{d}(u,v)$ is the distance between vertices $u in S$ and $v  in V(G)-S$ in the graph $G -(S-{u})$. The exponential domination number, $gamma_{e}(G)$, is the smallest cardinality of an exponential dominating set....

Clique-node and closed neighborhood matrices of circular interval graphs are matrices. The stable set polytope the dominating on these therefore closely related to packing covering polyhedron Eisenbrand et al. (2008) take advantage this relationship propose a complete linear description graphs. In paper we follow similar ideas obtain same class As in case, our results established for larger pol...

A pair of vertices of a graph is called a dominating pair if the vertex set of every path between these two vertices is a dominating set of the graph. A graph is a weak dominating pair graph if it has a dominating pair. Further, a graph is called a dominating pair graph if each of its connected induced subgraphs is a weak dominating pair graph. Dominating pair graphs form a class of graphs cont...

Let G be a connected simple graph. A restrained dominating set S of the vertex set of G, V (G) is a secure restrained dominating set of G if for each u ∈ V (G) \ S, there exists v ∈ S such that uv ∈ E(G) and the set (S \ {v}) ∪ {u} is a restrained dominating set of G. The minimum cardinality of a secure restrained dominating set of G, denoted by γsr(G), is called the secure restrained dominatio...

in this note by considering a complete lattice l, we define thenotion of an l-fuzzy hyperrelation on a given non-empty set x. then wedefine the concepts of (pom)l-fuzzy graph, hypergraph and subhypergroupand obtain some related results. in particular we construct the categories ofthe above mentioned notions, and give a (full and faithful) functor form thecategory of (pom)l-fuzzy subhypergroups ...

Finding a dominating set of minimum cardinality is an NP-hard graph problem, even when the graph is bipartite. In this paper we are interested in solving the problem on graphs having a large independent set. Given a graph G with an independent set of size z, we show that the problem can be solved in time O∗(2n−z), where n is the number of vertices of G. As a consequence, our algorithm is able t...
