Abstract

Let G = (V (G),E(G)) be a graph and let k be an integer. A vertex subset S ⊆ V (G) is called a k-extended dominating set if every vertex u of G satisfies one of the following conditions: the distance between u and S is at most one or there are at least k different vertices s1,s2,…,sk ∈ S such that the distance between u and si (i ∈ [k]) is two. The k-extended domination number γek(G) of G is the minimum size over all k-extended dominating sets in G. When k = 2, they are called the extended dominating set and the extended domination number of G, respectively. In this paper, we mainly study the bounds of the extended domination numbers of graphs. First, we obtain the exact values of the extended domination numbers for paths and cycles. And then the Nordhaus–Gaddum bounds for the extended domination numbers are provided. Additionally, we give some bounds of the extended domination numbers for planar graphs with small diameters. Finally, we consider the k-extended domination numbers in Random graphs.
