signed domatic number - Opis:
- Let D be a finite and simple digraph with the vertex set V(D), and let f:V(D) → {-1,1} be a two-valued function. If $∑_{x ∈ N¯[v]}f(x) ≥ 1$ for each v ∈ V(D), where N¯[v] consists of v and all vertices of D from which arcs go into v, then f is a signed dominating function on D. The sum f(V(D)) is called the weight w(f) of f. The minimum of weights w(f), taken over all signed dominating functions f on D, is the signed domination number $γ_S(D)$ of D. A set ${f₁,f₂,...,f_d}$ of signed dominating functions on D with the property that $∑_{i = 1}^d f_i(x) ≤ 1$ for each x ∈ V(D), is called a signed dominating family (of functions) on D. The maximum number of functions in a signed dominating family on D is the signed domatic number of D, denoted by $d_S(D)$. In this work we show that $4-n ≤ γ_S(D) ≤ n$ for each digraph D of order n ≥ 2, and we characterize the digraphs attending the lower bound as well as the upper bound. Furthermore, we prove that $γ_S(D) + d_S(D) ≤ n + 1$ for any digraph D of order n, and we characterize the digraphs D with $γ_S(D) + d_S(D) = n + 1$. Some of our theorems imply well-known results on the signed domination number of graphs.
