On global location-domination in graphs
A dominating set S of a graph G is called locating-dominating, LD-set for short, if every vertex v not in S is uniquely determined by the set of neighbors of v belonging to S. Locating-dominating sets of minimum cardinality are called LD-codes and the cardinality of an LD-code is the location-domination number lambda(G). An LD-set S of a graph G is global if it is an LD-set of both G and its complement G'. The global location-domination number lambda g(G) is introduced as the minimum cardinality of a global LD-set of G.
In this paper, some general relations between LD-codes and the location-domination number in a graph and its complement are presented first.
Next, a number of basic properties involving the global location-domination number are showed. Finally, both parameters are studied in-depth for the family of block-cactus graphs.Postprint (published version
Roman Domination in Complementary Prism Graphs
A Roman domination function on a complementary prism graph GGc is a function f : V [ V c ! {0, 1, 2} such that every vertex with label 0 has a neighbor with label 2. The Roman domination number R(GGc) of a graph G = (V,E) is the minimum of Px2V [V c f(x) over such functions, where the complementary prism GGc of G is graph obtained from disjoint union of G and its complement Gc by adding edges of a perfect matching between corresponding vertices of G and Gc. In this paper, we have investigated few properties of R(GGc) and its relation with other parameters are obtaine
Protecting a Graph with Mobile Guards
Mobile guards on the vertices of a graph are used to defend it against
attacks on either its vertices or its edges. Various models for this problem
have been proposed. In this survey we describe a number of these models with
particular attention to the case when the attack sequence is infinitely long
and the guards must induce some particular configuration before each attack,
such as a dominating set or a vertex cover. Results from the literature
concerning the number of guards needed to successfully defend a graph in each
of these problems are surveyed.Comment: 29 pages, two figures, surve

A dominating set of a graph is called locating-dominating, LD-set for
short, if every vertex not in is uniquely determined by the set of
neighbors of belonging to . Locating-dominating sets of minimum
cardinality are called -codes and the cardinality of an LD-code is the
location-domination number . An LD-set of a graph is global
if it is an LD-set of both and its complement . The global

locating-dominating sets and the location-domination number in a graph and its
complement.Comment: 15 pages: 2 tables; 8 figures; 20 reference
A Greedy Partition Lemma for Directed Domination
A directed dominating set in a directed graph is a set of vertices of
such that every vertex has an adjacent vertex
in with directed to . The directed domination number of , denoted
by , is the minimum cardinality of a directed dominating set in .
The directed domination number of a graph , denoted , which is
the maximum directed domination number over all orientations of
. The directed domination number of a complete graph was first studied by
Erd\"{o}s [Math. Gaz. 47 (1963), 220--222], albeit in disguised form. In this
paper we prove a Greedy Partition Lemma for directed domination in oriented
graphs. Applying this lemma, we obtain bounds on the directed domination
number. In particular, if denotes the independence number of a graph
