Total Domination on Some Graph Operators

Abstract

Let G=(V,E) be a graph; a set D⊆V is a total dominating set if every vertex v∈V has, at least, one neighbor in D. The total domination number γt(G) is the minimum cardinality among all total dominating sets. Given an arbitrary graph G, we consider some operators on this graph; S(G),R(G), and Q(G), and we give bounds or the exact value of the total domination number of these new graphs using some parameters in the original graph G.
