In this paper, we determine for a simple graph G on n vertices and m edges a variety of domination parameters such as connected domination number, outer connected domination number, doubly connected domination number, global domination number, total global connected domination number, 2-connected domination number, strong domination number, fair domination number, independence domination number etc.
The concept of vertex coloring pose a number of challenging open problems in graph theory. Among several interesting parameters, the coloring parameter, namely the pseudoachromatic number of a graph stands a class apart. Although not studied very widely like other parameters in the graph coloring literature, it has started gaining prominence in recent years. The pseudoachromatic number of a simple graph G, denoted ψ(G), is the maximum number of colors used in a vertex coloring of G, where the adjacent vertices may or may not receive the same color but any two distinct pair of colors are represented by at least one edge in it. In this paper we have computed this parameter for a number of classes of graphs.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
