The independent domination number i(G) of a graph G is the minimum cardinality of a maximal independent set of G, also called an i(G)-set. The i-graph of G, denoted I (G), is the graph whose vertices correspond to the i(G)-sets, and where two i(G)sets are adjacent if and only if they differ by two adjacent vertices. Although not all graphs are i-graph realizable, that is, given a target graph H, there does not necessarily exist a source graph G such that H ∼ = I (G), all graphs have i-graphs. We determine the i-graphs of paths and cycles and, in the case of cycles, discuss the Hamiltonicity of these i-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.
