A partition D = D 1 D 2 D k of the vertex set of G is said to be a domatic partition or simply a d-partition of G, if each class of D i of D is a dominating set in G. The maximum cardinality taken over all d-partitions of G is called the domatic number of G denoted by d G . A graph G is said to be domatically critical or d-critical if for every edge x in G, d G − x < d G otherwise G is said to be domatically non d-critical. The embedding index of a non d-critical graph G is defined to be the smallest order of d-critical graph H containing G as an induced sub graph denoted by G . In this paper, we find the upper bound of G for few well known classes of graphs.

Cockayne defined Roman dominating function (RDF) on a Graph G = (V, E) to be a function f : V → {0, 1, 2} satisfying the condition that every vertex u for which f (u) = 0 is adjacent to at least one vertex v for which f (v) = 2. For a real valued function f : V → R the weight of f is w(f ) = P v∈V f (v). The Roman domination number (RDN) denoted by γ R (G) is the minimum weight among all RDF in G. If V − D contains a roman dominating function f 1 : V → {0, 1, 2}. "D" is the set of vertices v for which f (v) > 0. Then f 1 is called Inverse Roman Dominating function (IRDF) on a graph G w.r.t. f . The inverse roman domination number (IRDN) denoted by γ 1 R (G) is the minimum weight among all IRDF in G. In this paper we find few results of IRDN.

A partition D = {D1, D2, …, Dk} of the vertex set of G is said to be a domatic partition or simply a d-partition of G if each class Di of D is a dominating set in G. The maximum cardinality taken over all d-partitions of G is called the domatic number of G denoted by d(G). A graph G is said to be domatically critical or d-critical if for every edge x in G, d(G-x) < d(G), otherwise G is said to be domatically non d-critical. The embedding index of a non d-critical graph G is defined to be the smallest order of a d-critical graph H containing G as an induced subgraph denoted by θ(G). In this paper, we find the upper bound of θ(G) for grid graphs.

A dominating set D in G is a minimal dominating set if no proper subset of D is a dominating set. The minimum cardinality among all the minimal dominating sets is called domination number of the graph G denoted by g (G).

The 3 rd dimensional product of vertex measurable graph is applicable in supply chain network. Assigning secondary warehouses and maintaining the selling stores plays important role in supply chain network. In this paper, the mathematical model of 3 rd dimensional product of vertex measurable graph is developed and the numerical example is taken to illustrate the model.

Let G(V, E) be a graph and S ⊆ V be a set of vertices, we can represent the set S by means of a matrix as follows, in the adjacency matrix A(G) of G replace the aii element by 1 if and only if vi ∈ S. In this paper we define set energy and find its properties and also study the special case of set S being a dominating set and corresponding domination energy of some special class of graphs.

If V -D contains a Roman dominating function f 1 : V → {0, 1, 2}, where D is the set of vertices v for which f (v) > 0.

Although domination and related topics are extensively studied, the respective analogies on digraphs have not received much attention. Such studies in the directed graphs have applications in game theory and other areas.

The general method widely used involves measurement of diameter of several circular dark fringes. We propose two alternative methods involving different formulae. It is based on the fact that, the formation of bright and dark interference fringes is a measure of the thickness of the air film at that point. The methods use simpler geometry and the formulae are easier to derive. We present the experimental data. The results from the experiment are in agreement with results obtained through the general method.
