Abstract

A dominating set in a graph \(G\) is a set \(D\) of nodes such that every node of \(G\) is either in \(D\) or is adjacent to some node in \(D\). The domination number \(\alpha(G)\) is the minimum size of a dominating set. The purpose of this paper is to explore the changing or unchanging of \(\alpha(G)\) when either a node is deleted, or an edge is added or deleted.
