Abstract: Given a graph G=(V,E), the dominating set problem asks for a minimum subset of vertices DsubseteqV such that every vertex uinVsetminusD is adjacent to at least one vertex vinD. That is, the set D satisfies the condition that |N[v]capD|geq1 for each vinV, where N[v] is the closed neighborhood of v. In this paper, we study two variants of the classical dominating set problem: -tuple dominating set (k-DS) problem and Liar's dominating set (LDS) problem, and obtain several algorithmic and hardness results. On the algorithmic side, we present a constant factor (frac112)-approximation algorithm for the Liar's dominating set problem on unit disk graphs. Then, we obtain a PTAS for the -tuple dominating set problem on unit disk graphs. On the hardness side, we show a Omega(n2) bits lower bound for the space complexity of any (randomized) streaming algorithm for Liar's dominating set problem as well as for the -tuple dominating set problem. Furthermore, we prove that the Liar's dominating set problem on bipartite graphs is W[2]-hard.
