A dominating set in a graph G is a set S of vertices such that every vertex in V (G) \ S is adjacent to at least one vertex in S, and the domination number of G is the minimum cardinality of a dominating set of G. Placing constraints on a dominating set yields different domination parameters, including total, connected, restrained, and clique domination numbers. In this paper, we study relationships...
The Wiener index W(G) of a connected graph G, introduced by Wiener in 1947, is defined as W(G) =∑u,v∈V (G) dG(u, v), where dG(u, v) is the distance (the length a shortest path) between the vertices u and v in G. For S ⊆ V (G), the Steiner distance d(S) of the vertices of S, introduced by Chartrand et al. in 1989, is the minimum size of a connected subgraph of G whose vertex set contains S. The k-th...
Let G be a graph of order n and let S be a set of positive integers with |S| = n. Then G is said to be S-magic if there exists a bijection ϕ : V (G) → S satisfying ∑x∈N(u) ϕ(x) = k (a constant) for every u ∈ V (G). Let α(S) = max{s : s ∈ S}. Let i(G) = min α(S), where the minimum is taken over all sets S for which the graph G admits an S-magic labeling. Then i(G) − n is called the distance magic index...
