is_redundant()

Check whether a set of vertices has redundant vertices (with respect to domination).

private_neighbors()

Return the private neighbors of a vertex with respect to other vertices.

greedy_dominating_set()

EXAMPLES:

We compute the size of a minimum dominating set of the Petersen graph:

sage: g = graphs.PetersenGraph()
sage: g.dominating_set(value_only=True)                                             # needs sage.numerical.mip
3
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> g = graphs.PetersenGraph()
>>> g.dominating_set(value_only=True)                                             # needs sage.numerical.mip
3

We enumerate the minimal dominating sets of the 5-star graph:

sage: g = graphs.StarGraph(5)
sage: list(g.minimal_dominating_sets())
[{0}, {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}]
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> g = graphs.StarGraph(Integer(5))
>>> list(g.minimal_dominating_sets())
[{0}, {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}]

Now only those that dominate the middle vertex:

sage: list(g.minimal_dominating_sets([0]))
[{0}, {1}, {2}, {3}, {4}, {5}]
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> list(g.minimal_dominating_sets([Integer(0)]))
[{0}, {1}, {2}, {3}, {4}, {5}]

Now the minimal dominating sets of the 5-path graph:

sage: g = graphs.PathGraph(5)
sage: list(g.minimal_dominating_sets())
[{0, 2, 4}, {1, 4}, {0, 3}, {1, 3}]
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> g = graphs.PathGraph(Integer(5))
>>> list(g.minimal_dominating_sets())
[{0, 2, 4}, {1, 4}, {0, 3}, {1, 3}]

We count the minimal dominating sets of the Petersen graph:

sage: sum(1 for _ in graphs.PetersenGraph().minimal_dominating_sets())
27
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> sum(Integer(1) for _ in graphs.PetersenGraph().minimal_dominating_sets())
27

Methods#

sage.graphs.domination.dominating_set(g, k, independent=1, total=False, connected=False, value_only=False, solver=False, verbose=None, integrality_tolerance=0)[source]#

Return a minimum distance-\(k\) dominating set of the graph.

A minimum dominating set \(S\) of a graph \(G\) is a set of its vertices of minimal cardinality such that any vertex of \(G\) is in \(S\) or has one of its neighbors in \(S\). See the Wikipedia article Dominating_set.

A minimum distance-\(k\) dominating set is a set \(S\) of vertices of \(G\) of minimal cardinality such that any vertex of \(G\) is in \(S\) or at distance at most \(k\) from a vertex in \(S\). A distance-\(0\) dominating set is the set of vertices itself, and when \(k\) is the radius of the graph, any vertex dominates all the other vertices.

As an optimization problem, it can be expressed as follows, where \(N^k(u)\) denotes the set of vertices at distance at most \(k\) from \(u\) (the set of neighbors when \(k=1\)):

\[\begin{split}\mbox{Minimize : }&\sum_{v\in G} b_v\\ \mbox{Such that : }&\forall v \in G, b_v+\sum_{u \in N^k(v)} b_u\geq 1\\ &\forall x\in G, b_x\mbox{ is a binary variable}\end{split}\]

INPUT:

  • k – a non-negative integer (default: 1); the domination distance

  • independent – boolean (default: False); when True, computes a minimum independent dominating set, that is a minimum dominating set that is also an independent set (see also independent_set())

  • total – boolean (default: False); when True, computes a total dominating set (see the See the Wikipedia article Dominating_set)

  • connected – boolean (default: False); when True, computes a connected dominating set (see Wikipedia article Connected_dominating_set)

  • value_only – boolean (default: False); whether to only return the cardinality of the computed dominating set, or to return its list of vertices (default)

  • solver – string (default: None); specify a Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP) solver to be used. If set to None, the default one is used. For more information on MILP solvers and which default solver is used, see the method solve of the class MixedIntegerLinearProgram.

  • verbose – integer (default: 0); sets the level of verbosity. Set to 0 by default, which means quiet.

  • integrality_tolerance – float; parameter for use with MILP solvers over an inexact base ring; see MixedIntegerLinearProgram.get_values().

EXAMPLES:

A basic illustration on a PappusGraph:

sage: g = graphs.PappusGraph()
sage: g.dominating_set(value_only=True)                                         # needs sage.numerical.mip
5
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> g = graphs.PappusGraph()
>>> g.dominating_set(value_only=True)                                         # needs sage.numerical.mip
5

If we build a graph from two disjoint stars, then link their centers we will find a difference between the cardinality of an independent set and a stable independent set:

sage: g = 2 * graphs.StarGraph(5)
sage: g.add_edge(0, 6)
sage: len(g.dominating_set())                                                   # needs sage.numerical.mip
2
sage: len(g.dominating_set(independent=True))                                   # needs sage.numerical.mip
6
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> g = Integer(2) * graphs.StarGraph(Integer(5))
>>> g.add_edge(Integer(0), Integer(6))
>>> len(g.dominating_set())                                                   # needs sage.numerical.mip
2
>>> len(g.dominating_set(independent=True))                                   # needs sage.numerical.mip
6

The total dominating set of the Petersen graph has cardinality 4:

sage: G = graphs.PetersenGraph()
sage: G.dominating_set(total=True, value_only=True)                             # needs sage.numerical.mip
4
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> G = graphs.PetersenGraph()
>>> G.dominating_set(total=True, value_only=True)                             # needs sage.numerical.mip
4

The dominating set is calculated for both the directed and undirected graphs (modification introduced in Issue #17905):

sage: g = digraphs.Path(3)
sage: g.dominating_set(value_only=True)                                         # needs sage.numerical.mip
2
sage: g = graphs.PathGraph(3)
sage: g.dominating_set(value_only=True)                                         # needs sage.numerical.mip
1
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> g = digraphs.Path(Integer(3))
>>> g.dominating_set(value_only=True)                                         # needs sage.numerical.mip
2
>>> g = graphs.PathGraph(Integer(3))
>>> g.dominating_set(value_only=True)                                         # needs sage.numerical.mip

Cardinality of distance-\(k\) dominating sets:

sage: G = graphs.PetersenGraph()
sage: [G.dominating_set(k=k, value_only=True) for k in range(G.radius() + 1)]   # needs sage.numerical.mip
[10, 3, 1]
sage: G = graphs.PathGraph(5)
sage: [G.dominating_set(k=k, value_only=True) for k in range(G.radius() + 1)]   # needs sage.numerical.mip
[5, 2, 1]
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> G = graphs.PetersenGraph()
>>> [G.dominating_set(k=k, value_only=True) for k in range(G.radius() + Integer(1))]   # needs sage.numerical.mip
[10, 3, 1]
>>> G = graphs.PathGraph(Integer(5))
>>> [G.dominating_set(k=k, value_only=True) for k in range(G.radius() + Integer(1))]   # needs sage.numerical.mip
[5, 2, 1]
sage.graphs.domination.dominating_sets(g, k, independent=1, total=False, connected=False, solver=False, verbose=None, integrality_tolerance=0)[source]#

Return an iterator over the minimum distance-\(k\) dominating sets of the graph.

A minimum dominating set \(S\) of a graph \(G\) is a set of its vertices of minimal cardinality such that any vertex of \(G\) is in \(S\) or has one of its neighbors in \(S\). See the Wikipedia article Dominating_set.

A minimum distance-\(k\) dominating set is a set \(S\) of vertices of \(G\) of minimal cardinality such that any vertex of \(G\) is in \(S\) or at distance at most \(k\) from a vertex in \(S\). A distance-\(0\) dominating set is the set of vertices itself, and when \(k\) is the radius of the graph, any vertex dominates all the other vertices.

As an optimization problem, it can be expressed as follows, where \(N^k(u)\) denotes the set of vertices at distance at most \(k\) from \(u\) (the set of neighbors when \(k=1\)):

\[\begin{split}\mbox{Minimize : }&\sum_{v\in G} b_v\\ \mbox{Such that : }&\forall v \in G, b_v+\sum_{u \in N^k(v)} b_u\geq 1\\ &\forall x\in G, b_x\mbox{ is a binary variable}\end{split}\]

We use constraints generation to iterate over the minimum distance-\(k\) dominating sets. That is, after reporting a solution, we add a constraint to discard it and solve the problem again until no more solution can be found.

INPUT:

  • k – a non-negative integer (default: 1); the domination distance

  • independent – boolean (default: False); when True, computes minimum independent dominating sets, that is minimum dominating sets that are also independent sets (see also independent_set())

  • total – boolean (default: False); when True, computes total dominating sets (see the See the Wikipedia article Dominating_set)

  • connected – boolean (default: False); when True, computes connected dominating sets (see Wikipedia article Connected_dominating_set)

  • solver – string (default: None); specify a Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP) solver to be used. If set to None, the default one is used. For more information on MILP solvers and which default solver is used, see the method solve of the class MixedIntegerLinearProgram.

  • verbose – integer (default: 0); sets the level of verbosity. Set to 0 by default, which means quiet.

  • integrality_tolerance – float; parameter for use with MILP solvers over an inexact base ring; see MixedIntegerLinearProgram.get_values().

EXAMPLES:

sage: g = graphs.PathGraph(10)
sage: [sum(1 for _ in g.dominating_sets(k=k)) for k in range(11)]               # needs sage.numerical.mip
[1, 13, 1, 13, 25, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 10]
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> g = graphs.PathGraph(Integer(10))
>>> [sum(Integer(1) for _ in g.dominating_sets(k=k)) for k in range(Integer(11))]               # needs sage.numerical.mip
[1, 13, 1, 13, 25, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 10]

If we build a graph from two disjoint stars, then link their centers we will find a difference between the cardinality of an independent set and a stable independent set:

sage: g = 2 * graphs.StarGraph(5)
sage: g.add_edge(0, 6)
sage: [sum(1 for _ in g.dominating_sets(k=k)) for k in range(11)]               # needs sage.numerical.mip

[1, 1, 2, 12, 12, 12, 12, 12, 12, 12, 12]

sage.graphs.domination.greedy_dominating_set(G, k=1, vertices=None, ordering=None, return_sets=False, closest=False)[source]#

Return a greedy distance-\(k\) dominating set of the graph.

A distance-\(k\) dominating set \(S\) of a graph \(G\) is a set of its vertices of minimal cardinality such that any vertex of \(G\) is in \(S\) or is at distance at most \(k\) from a vertex in \(S\). See the Wikipedia article Dominating_set.

When \(G\) is directed, vertex \(u\) can be a dominator of vertex \(v\) if there is a directed path of length at most \(k\) from \(u\) to \(v\).

This method implements a greedy heuristic to find a minimal dominatic set.

INPUT:

  • G – a Graph

  • k – integer (default: 1); the domination distance to consider

  • vertices – iterable container of vertices (default: None); when specified, return a dominating set of the specified vertices only

  • ordering – string (default: None); specify the order in which to consider the vertices

    • None – if vertices is None, then consider the vertices in the order given by list(G). Otherwise, consider the vertices in the order of iteration of vertices.

    • "degree_min" – consider the vertices by increasing degree

    • "degree_max" – consider the vertices by decreasing degree

  • return_sets – boolean (default: False); whether to return the vertices of the dominating set only (default), or a dictionary mapping each vertex of the dominating set to the set of vertices it dominates.

  • closest – boolean (default: False); whether to attach a vertex to its closest dominator or not. This parameter is use only when return_sets is True.

sage.graphs.domination.is_dominating(G, dom, focus=None)[source]#

Check whether dom is a dominating set of G.

We say that a set \(D\) of vertices of a graph \(G\) dominates a set \(S\) if every vertex of \(S\) either belongs to \(D\) or is adjacent to a vertex of \(D\). Also, \(D\) is a dominating set of \(G\) if it dominates \(V(G)\).

INPUT:

  • dom – iterable of vertices of G; the vertices of the supposed dominating set.

  • focus – iterable of vertices of G (default: None); if specified, this method checks instead if dom dominates the vertices in focus.

EXAMPLES:

sage: g = graphs.CycleGraph(5)
sage: g.is_dominating([0,1], [4, 2])
True

sage: g.is_dominating([0,1])
False
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> g = graphs.CycleGraph(Integer(5))
>>> g.is_dominating([Integer(0),Integer(1)], [Integer(4), Integer(2)])
True

>>> g.is_dominating([Integer(0),Integer(1)])
False
sage.graphs.domination.is_redundant(G, dom, focus=None)[source]#

Check whether dom has redundant vertices.

For a graph \(G\) and sets \(D\) and \(S\) of vertices, we say that a vertex \(v \in D\) is redundant in \(S\) if \(v\) has no private neighbor with respect to \(D\) in \(S\). In other words, there is no vertex in \(S\) that is dominated by \(v\) but not by \(D \setminus \{v\}\).

INPUT:

  • dom – iterable of vertices of G; where we look for redundant vertices.

  • focus – iterable of vertices of G (default: None); if specified, this method checks instead whether dom has a redundant vertex in focus.

Warning

The assumption is made that focus (if provided) does not contain repeated vertices.

EXAMPLES:

sage: G = graphs.CubeGraph(3)
sage: G.is_redundant(['000', '101'], ['011'])
True
sage: G.is_redundant(['000', '101'])
False
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> G = graphs.CubeGraph(Integer(3))
>>> G.is_redundant(['000', '101'], ['011'])
True
>>> G.is_redundant(['000', '101'])
False
sage.graphs.domination.maximum_leaf_number(G, solver=None, verbose=0, integrality_tolerance=0.001)[source]#

Return the maximum leaf number of the graph.

The maximum leaf number is the maximum possible number of leaves of a spanning tree of \(G\). This is also the cardinality of the complement of a minimum connected dominating set. See the Wikipedia article Connected_dominating_set.

The MLN of a graph with less than 2 vertices is 0, while the MLN of a connected graph with 2 or 3 vertices is 1 or 2 respectively.

INPUT:

  • G – a Graph

  • solver – string (default: None); specify a Mixed Integer Linear Programming (MILP) solver to be used. If set to None, the default one is used. For more information on MILP solvers and which default solver is used, see the method solve of the class MixedIntegerLinearProgram.

  • verbose – integer (default: 0); sets the level of verbosity. Set to 0 by default, which means quiet.

  • integrality_tolerance – float; parameter for use with MILP solvers over an inexact base ring; see MixedIntegerLinearProgram.get_values().

EXAMPLES:

Empty graph:

sage: G = Graph()
sage: G.maximum_leaf_number()
0
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> G = Graph()
>>> G.maximum_leaf_number()
0

Petersen graph:

sage: G = graphs.PetersenGraph()
sage: G.maximum_leaf_number()
6
>>> from sage.all import *
>>> G = graphs.PetersenGraph()
>>> G.maximum_leaf_number()
6
sage.graphs.domination.minimal_dominating_sets(G, to_dominate=None, work_on_copy=True, k=1)[source]#

Return an iterator over the minimal dominating sets of a graph.

INPUT:

  • G – a graph.

  • to_dominate – vertex iterable or None (default: None); the set of vertices to be dominated.

  • work_on_copy – boolean (default: True); whether or not to work on a copy of the input graph; if set to False, the input graph will be modified (relabeled).

  • k – a non-negative integer (default: 1); the domination distance

OUTPUT:

An iterator over the inclusion-minimal sets of vertices of G. If to_dominate is provided, return an iterator over the inclusion-minimal sets of vertices that dominate the vertices of to_dominate.

ALGORITHM: The algorithm described in [BDHPR2019].

sage.graphs.domination.private_neighbors(G, vertex, dom)[source]#

Return the private neighbors of a vertex with respect to other vertices.

A private neighbor of a vertex \(v\) with respect to a vertex subset \(D\) is a closed neighbor of \(v\) that is not dominated by a vertex of \(D \setminus \{v\}\).

INPUT:

  • vertex – a vertex of G.

  • dom – iterable of vertices of G; the vertices possibly stealing private neighbors from vertex.

OUTPUT:

Return the closed neighbors of vertex that are not closed neighbors of any other vertex of dom.
