Abstract
Abstract A dominating set of a graph is a vertex subset such that every vertex not in the subset is adjacent to at least one in the subset. In this paper we study whenever there exists a new dominating set contained (respectively, containing) the subset obtained by removing a common vertex from the union of two minimal dominating sets. A complete description of the graphs satisfying such elimination properties is provided.
期刊介绍:
The Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory publishes high-quality refereed original papers. Occasionally, very authoritative expository survey articles and notes of exceptional value can be published. The journal is mainly devoted to the following topics in Graph Theory: colourings, partitions (general colourings), hereditary properties, independence and domination, structures in graphs (sets, paths, cycles, etc.), local properties, products of graphs as well as graph algorithms related to these topics.
