Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to present some basic properties of -dominating, -independent, and -irredundant sets in graphs which generalize well-known properties of dominating, independent and irredundant sets, respectively.

Keywords

hereditary property of graphs, generalized domination, independence and irredundance numbers
