For every positive integer k, a set S of vertices in a graph G = (V;E) is a k- tuple dominating set of G if every vertex of V -S is adjacent to at least k vertices and every vertex of S is adjacent to at least k - 1 vertices in S. The minimum cardinality of a k-tuple dominating set of G is the k-tuple domination number of G. When k = 1, a k-tuple domination number is the well-studied domination...

Let G = (V,E) be a simple undirected graph, and k be a positive integer. A k-dominating set of G is a set of vertices S ⊆ V satisfying that every vertex in V \ S is adjacent to at least k vertices in S. A k-domatic partition of G is a partition of V into k-dominating sets. The k-domatic number of G is the maximum number of k-dominating sets contained in a k-domatic partition of G. In this paper...

Let $A$ and $B$ be two disjoint subsets of the vertex set $V$ of a graph $G$. The set $A$ is said to dominate $B$, denoted by $A rightarrow B$, if for every vertex $u in B$ there exists a vertex $v in A$ such that $uv in E(G)$. For any graph $G$, a partition $pi = {V_1,$ $V_2,$ $ldots,$ $V_p}$ of the vertex set $V$ is an textit{upper domatic partition} if $V_i rightarrow V_j$ or $V_j rightarrow...

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)...

For a positive integer k, a total {k}-dominating function of a digraph D is a function f from the vertex set V (D) to the set {0, 1, 2, . . . , k} such that for any vertex v ∈ V (D), the condition ∑ u∈N(v) f(u) ≥ k is fulfilled, where N(v) consists of all vertices of D from which arcs go into v. A set {f1, f2, . . . , fd} of total {k}-dominating functions of D with the property that ∑ d i=1 fi(...
