Signed Roman (Total) Domination Numbers of Complete Bipartite Graphs and Wheels

A signed(res. signed total) Roman dominating function, SRDF(res.STRDF) for short, of a graph G =(V, E) is a function f : V → {-1, 1, 2} satisfying the conditions that(i)∑v∈N[v]f(v) ≥ 1(res.∑v∈N(v)f(v) ≥ 1) for any v ∈ V, where N [v] is the closed neighborhood and N(v) is the neighborhood of v, and(ii) every vertex v for which f(v) =-1 is adjacent to a vertex u for which f(u) = 2. The weight of a SRDF(res. STRDF) is the sum of its function values over all vertices.The signed(res. signed total) Roman domination number of G is the minimum weight among all signed(res. signed total) Roman dominating functions of G. In this paper,we compute the exact values of the signed(res. signed total) Roman domination numbers of complete bipartite graphs and wheels.

Total Restrained Domination in Cubic Graphs

A set S of vertices in a graph G = (V, E) is a total restrained dominating set (TRDS) of G if every vertex of G is adjacent to a vertex in S and every vertex of V − S is adjacent to a vertex in V − S. The total restrained domination number of G, denoted by γ _tr (G), is the minimum cardinality of a TRDS of G. Let G be a cubic graph of order n. In this paper we establish an upper bound on γ _tr (G). If adding the restriction that G is claw-free, then we show that γ _tr (G) = γ _t (G) where γ _t (G) is the total domination number of G, and thus some results on total domination in claw-free cubic graphs are valid for total restrained domination.

A lower bound on the total signed domination numbers of graphs

Let G be a finite connected simple graph with a vertex set V(G)and an edge set E(G). A total signed domination function of G is a function f:V(G)∪E(G)→{-1,1}.The weight of f is W(f)=∑_(x∈V)(G)∪E(G))f(X).For an element x∈V(G)∪E(G),we define f[x]=∑_(y∈NT[x])f(y).A total signed domination function of G is a function f:V(G)∪E(G)→{-1,1} such that f[x]≥1 for all x∈V(G)∪E(G).The total signed domination numberγ_s~*(G)of G is the minimum weight of a total signed domination function on G. In this paper,we obtain some lower bounds for the total signed domination number of a graph G and compute the exact values ofγ_s~*(G)when G is C_n and P_n.

划分图上的正影响数

一个社会网络中通常包括具有正面影响和负面影响的两类人员,为了研究这个社会网络中人们之间相互影响的某些规律,引入了一个新的概念. 用划分图G=(V,E),V=V⁺ cup V^-表示这样的一个社会网络,其中V⁺和V^- 分别表示正面人员的集合和负面人员的集合. 图G的一个点子集Dsubseteq V^-被称为G的一个正影响集,若G的每个点的至少一半的邻点在Dcup V⁺中. G的所有正影响集的最小基数称为G的正影响数. 给出G的正影响数的几个下界并证明了这些界是紧的. 此外,还证明了求正影响数问题在二部图和弦图上都是NP-完全的.     

Remarks on restrained domination and total restrained domination in graphs

The restrained domination number ^r(G) and the total restrained domination number _t ^r (G) of a graph G were introduced recently by various authors as certain variants of the domination number (G) of (G). A well-known numerical invariant of a graph is the domatic number d(G) which is in a certain way related (and may be called dual) to (G). The paper tries to define analogous concepts also for the restrained domination and the total restrained domination and discusses the sense of such new definitions.This research was supported by Grant MSM 245100303 of the Ministry of Education, Youth and Sports of the Czech Republic.

Lower bounds on signed edge total domination numbers in graphs

The open neighborhood N _G (e) of an edge e in a graph G is the set consisting of all edges having a common end-vertex with e. Let f be a function on E(G), the edge set of G, into the set {−1, 1}. If for each e ∈ E(G), then f is called a signed edge total dominating function of G. The minimum of the values , taken over all signed edge total dominating function f of G, is called the signed edge total domination number of G and is denoted by γ _st ′(G). Obviously, γ _st ′(G) is defined only for graphs G which have no connected components isomorphic to K ₂. In this paper we present some lower bounds for γ _st ′(G). In particular, we prove that γ _st ′(T) ⩾ 2 − m/3 for every tree T of size m ⩾ 2. We also classify all trees T with γ _st ′(T).
