On the upper geodetic global domination number of a graph

Abstract A set S of vertices in a connected graph G = (V, E) is called a geodetic set if every vertex not in S lies on a shortest path between two vertices from S. A set D of vertices in G is called a dominating set of G if every vertex not in D has at least one neighbor in D. A set D is called a gl...
