A Lower Bound for the Domination Number of Complete Grid Graphs

Abstract

We use a dynamic programming algorithm to establish a lower bound on the domination number of complete grid graphs \( G_{m,n} \). The bound is within \( 5 \) of a known upper bound that has been conjectured to be the exact domination number of the complete grid graphs.
