Abstract

Determining whether or not a graph has an efficient dominating set (equivalently, a perfect code) is an NP-complete problem. Here we present a polynomial time algorithm to decide if a given simplicial graph has an efficient dominating set. However, the efficient domination number decision problem is NP-complete for simplicial graphs.

Keywords: Dominating sets; Efficient domination number; Simplicial graphs; Computational complexity.
