Upper domination: towards a dichotomy through boundary properties
From MaRDI portal
Publication:722525
Abstract: An upper dominating set in a graph is a minimal (with respect to set inclusion) dominating set of maximum cardinality. The problem of finding an upper dominating set is generally NP-hard. We study the complexity of this problem in classes of graphs defined by finitely many forbidden induced subgraphs and conjecture that the problem admits a dichotomy in this family, i.e. it is either NP-hard or polynomial-time solvable for each class in the family. A helpful tool to study the complexity of an algorithmic problem on finitely defined classes of graphs is the notion of boundary classes. However, none of such classes has been identified so far for the upper dominating set problem. In the present paper, we discover the first boundary class for this problem and prove the dichotomy for classes defined by a single forbidden induced subgraph.
