A theorem of Ore and self-stabilizing algorithms for disjoint minimal dominating sets

Published: 16 August 2015 Publication History

Abstract

A theorem of Ore 20] states that if D is a minimal dominating set in a graph G = ( V, E ) having no isolated nodes, then V - D is a dominating set. It follows that such graphs must have two disjoint minimal dominating sets R and B. We describe a self-stabilizing algorithm for finding such a pair of sets. It also follows from Ore's theorem that in a graph with no isolates, one can find disjoint sets R and B where R is maximal independent and B is minimal dominating. We describe a self-stabilizing algorithm for finding such a pair. Both algorithms are described using the Distance-2 model, but can be converted to the usual Distance-1 model 7], yielding running times of O ( n 2 m ) .
