On the monophonic global domination number of a graph

UDC 519.17 We introduce the monophonic global domination number $\overline{\gamma}_m(G)$ by combining monophonic convexity (via chordless paths) with the global domination in a graph and its complement. A monophonic global dominating set is defined, and $\overline{\gamma}_m(G)$ is regarded as the mi...

description UDC 519.17 We introduce the monophonic global domination number $\overline{\gamma}_m(G)$ by combining monophonic convexity (via chordless paths) with the global domination in a graph and its complement. A monophonic global dominating set is defined, and $\overline{\gamma}_m(G)$ is regarded as the minimum size of sets of this kind. We also establish the bounds, relate $\overline{\gamma}_m(G)$ to the classical domination number, and characterize the graphs that attain extreme values. The realization theorem is proved for prescribed parameter values. The behavior of $\overline{\gamma}_m(G)$ under graph operations, in particular, for the corona product, is analyzed. The applications to the network monitoring are discussed and several open problems are proposed for further research.

УДК 519.17 Про монофонне глобальне число домінування графа Введено число монофонічного глобального домінування $\overline{\gamma}_m(G),$ що поєднує монофонічну опуклість (через безхордові шляхи) та глобальне домінування в графі і його доповненні. Визначено монофонічну глобально домінантну множину, а $\overline{\gamma}_m(G)$ визначено як мінімальна потужність таких множин. Встановлено оцінки та зв'язок $\overline{\gamma}_m(G)$ з класичним числом домінування, а також охарактеризовано графи, на яких досягаються екстремальні значення. Доведено теорему реалізації для наперед заданих значень параметра. Досліджено поведінку $\overline{\gamma}_m(G)$ при операціях над графами, зокрема для коронного добутку. Обговорено застосування до моніторингу мереж і запропоновано низку відкритих задач для подальших досліджень.
