On graphs with largest possible game domination number

Let $\gamma \left(G\right)$ and ${\gamma }_g\left(G\right)$ be the domination number and the game domination number of a graph $G$, respectively. In this paper ${\gamma }_g$-maximal graphs are introduced as the graphs $G$ for which ${\gamma }_g\left(G\right)=2\gamma \left(G\right)?1$ holds. Large families of ${\gamma }_g$-maximal graphs are constructed among the graphs in which their sets of support vertices are minimum dominating sets. ${\gamma }_g$-maximal graphs are also characterized among the starlike trees, that is, trees which have exactly one vertex of degree at least $3$.
