The edge-to-edge geodetic domination number of a graph

Abstract: Let G = (V, E) be a connected graph with at least three vertices. A set S ⊆ E(G) is called an edge-to-edge geodetic dominating set of G if S is both an edge-to-edge geodetic set of G and an edge dominating set of G. The edge-to-edge geodetic domination number γgee(G) of...

The edge-to-edge geodetic domination number of a graph
description Abstract: Let G = (V, E) be a connected graph with at least three vertices. A set S &#8838; E(G) is called an edge-to-edge geodetic dominating set of G if S is both an edge-to-edge geodetic set of G and an edge dominating set of G. The edge-to-edge geodetic domination number &#947;gee(G) of G is the minimum cardinality of its edge-to-edge geodetic dominating sets. Some general properties satisfied by this concept are studied. Connected graphs of size m with edge-to-edge geodetic domination number 2 or m or m &#8722; 1 are characterized. We proved that if G is a connected graph of size m &#8805; 4 and &#7712; is also connected, then 4 &#8804; &#947;gee(G) + &#947;gee(&#7712;) &#8804; 2m &#8722; 2. Moreover we characterized graphs for which the lower and the upper bounds are sharp. It is shown that, for every pair of positive integers a, b with 2 &#8804; a &#8804; b, there exists a connected graph G with gee(G) = a and &#947;gee(G) = b.
