A mixed dominating set is a collection of vertices and edges that dominates all graph. We study the complexity exact parameterized algorithms for \textsc{Mixed Dominating Set}, resolving some open questions. In particular, we settle problem's by treewidth pathwidth giving an algorithm running in time $O^*(5^{tw})$ (improving current best $O^*(6^{tw})$), as well lower bound showing our cannot be...

A subset X of edges in a graph G is called an edge dominating set of G if every edge not in X is adjacent to some edge in X. The edge domination number γ′(G) of G is the minimum cardinality taken over all edge dominating sets of G. Let m,n and k be positive integers with n − 1 ≤ m ≤ (n 2 ) , G(m,n) be the set of all non-isomorphic connected graphs of order n and size m, and G(m,n; k) = {G ∈ G(m...

A subset X of edges of a graph G is called an edge dominating set of G if every edge not in X is adjacent to some edge in X . The edge domination number γ′(G) of G is the minimum cardinality taken over all edge dominating sets of G. An edge Roman dominating function of a graph G is a function f : E(G) → {0, 1, 2} such that every edge e with f(e) = 0 is adjacent to some edge e′ with f(e′) = 2. T...

The inflated graph GI of a graph G with n(G) vertices is obtained from G by replacing every vertex of degree d of G by a clique, which is isomorph to the complete graph Kd, and each edge (xi, xj) of G is replaced by an edge (u, v) in such a way that u ∈ Xi, v ∈ Xj , and two different edges of G are replaced by non-adjacent edges of GI . For integer k ≥ 1, the k-tuple total domination number γ ×...

In this paper, we study both concepts of geodetic dominatingand edge geodetic dominating sets and derive some tight upper bounds onthe edge geodetic and the edge geodetic domination numbers. We also obtainattainable upper bounds on the maximum number of elements in a partitionof a vertex set of a connected graph into geodetic sets, edge geodetic sets,geodetic domin...

This paper is devoted to the online dominating set problem and its variants on trees, bipartite, bounded-degree, planar, and general graphs, distinguishing between connected and not necessarily connected graphs. We believe this paper represents the first systematic study of the effect of two limitations of online algorithms: making irrevocable decisions while not knowing the future, and being i...
