The relationship between the existence of efficient (j, k)-dominating functions and various kinds of efficient dominating sets is explored. It is shown that if a strongly chordal graph has an efficient (j, k)-dominating function, then it has an efficient dominating set. Further, every efficient (j, k)-dominating function of a strongly chordal graph can be expressed as a sum of characteristic functions of efficient dominating sets. For j < k there are strongly chordal graphs with an efficient dominating set but no efficient (j, k)-dominating function. The problem of deciding whether a given graph has an efficient (j, k)-dominating function is shown to be NP-complete for all positive integers j and k, and solvable in polynomial time for strongly chordal graphs when j = k. By taking j = 1 we obtain NP-completeness of the problem of deciding whether a given graph has an efficient k-tuple dominating set for any fixed positive integer k. Finally, we consider efficient (2, 2)-dominating functions of trees. We describe a new constructive characterization of the trees with an efficient dominating set and a constructive characterization of the trees with two different efficient dominating sets. A number of open problems and questions are stated throughout the work.","PeriodicalId":48875,"journal":{"name":"Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2022-11-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49363110","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An intersecting family is said to be trivial if its sets have a common element. A graph G is said to be r-EKR if at least one of the largest intersecting families of independent r-element sets of G is trivial. Let α (G) and ω (G) denote the independence number and the clique number of G, respectively. Hilton and Spencer recently showed that if G is the vertex-disjoint union of a cycle C raised to the power k and s cycles 1C, . . ., sC raised to the powers k1, . . ., ks, respectively, 1 ≤ r ≤ α (G), and min(ω(C1k1),…,ω(Csks))≥ω(Ck), min left( {omega left( {{}_1{C^{k1}}} right), ldots ,omega left( {{}_s{C^{ks}}} right)} right) ge omega left( {{C^k}} right), then G is r-EKR.

Additionally, we show that every planar graph without 4-cycles and 7-cycles is DP-(1, 1, 1)-colorable. This generalizes a result of Lih et al. [A note on list improper coloring planar graphs, Appl.

Lesk et al. [Equi-matchable graphs, Graph Theory and Combinatorics (Academic Press, London, 1984) 239–254] has provided a characterization of equimatchable bipartite graphs. Motivated by the fact that this characterization is not structural, Frendrup et al. [A note on equimatchable graphs, Australas. J. Combin. 46 (2010) 185–190] has also provided a structural characterization for equimatchable graphs with girth at least five, in particular, a characterization for equimatchable bipartite graphs with girth at least six. In this paper, we extend the characterization of Frendrup by eliminating the girth condition. For an equimatchable graph, an edge is said to be a critical-edge if the graph obtained by the removal of this edge is not equimatchable. An equimatchable graph is called edge-critical, denoted by ECE, if every edge is critical. Noting that each ECE-graph can be obtained from some equimatchable graph by recursively removing non-critical edges, each equimatchable graph can also be constructed from some ECE-graph by joining some non-adjacent vertices. Our study reduces the characterization of equimatchable bipartite graphs to the characterization of bipartite ECE-graphs.","PeriodicalId":48875,"journal":{"name":"Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2022-11-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44276827","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
