The Algorithmic Complexity of Bondage and Reinforcement Problems in bipartite graphs
Let be a graph. A subset is a dominating set if
every vertex not in is adjacent to a vertex in . The domination number
of , denoted by , is the smallest cardinality of a dominating set
of . The bondage number of a nonempty graph is the smallest number of
edges whose removal from results in a graph with domination number larger
than . The reinforcement number of is the smallest number of
edges whose addition to results in a graph with smaller domination number
than . In 2012, Hu and Xu proved that the decision problems for the
bondage, the total bondage, the reinforcement and the total reinforcement
numbers are all NP-hard in general graphs. In this paper, we improve these
results to bipartite graphs.Comment: 13 pages, 4 figures. arXiv admin note: substantial text overlap with

Upper bounds for domination related parameters in graphs on surfaces
AbstractIn this paper we give tight upper bounds on the total domination number, the weakly connected domination number and the connected domination number of a graph in terms of order and Euler characteristic. We also present upper bounds for the restrained bondage number, the total restrained bondage number and the restricted edge connectivity of graphs in terms of the orientable/nonorientable genus and maximum degree
Fair Restrained Dominating Set in the Corona of Graphs
In this paper, we give the characterization of a fair restrained dominating set in the corona of two nontrivial connected graphs and give some important results
