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
Perfect domination in regular grid graphs
We show there is an uncountable number of parallel total perfect codes in the
integer lattice graph of . In contrast, there is just one
1-perfect code in and one total perfect code in
restricting to total perfect codes of rectangular grid graphs (yielding an
asymmetric, Penrose, tiling of the plane). We characterize all cycle products
with parallel total perfect codes, and the -perfect and
total perfect code partitions of and , the former
having as quotient graph the undirected Cayley graphs of with
generator set . For , generalization for 1-perfect codes is
provided in the integer lattice of and in the products of cycles,
with partition quotient graph taken as the undirected Cayley graph
of with generator set .Comment: 16 pages; 11 figures; accepted for publication in Austral. J. Combi
