Summary: This paper points out an error in the proof of a graph characterization and provides complete multipartite graphs as counterexamples. Furthermore, it finds several metric values for complete multipartite graphs and generalizes existing results from complete bipartite to complete multipartite graphs.

Summary: This paper focuses on the study of double domination in vague graphs, making contributions to the field of graph theory and the symmetry/asymmetry of symmetry. Symmetry, an important criterion in fuzzy graphs, has applications in dominating sets and construction placement. The concept of energy is introduced in this work to model problems related to dominating vague graphs (DVGs) and a new notion of double dominating vague graphs (DDVGs) is proposed with examples provided. Additionally, an application of energy on DVGs is presented.

Summary: This paper introduces the concepts of connected dominating sets and their connected domination numbers in graphs, and proposes an algorithm for finding connected dominating sets in maximal outerplanar graphs. An upper bound for the connected domination number of maximal outerplanar graphs is obtained through this algorithm. Additionally, the advantages of the results are evaluated through simulations.

Summary: In this paper, a complete characterization of a maximal 1-plane graph G is provided for values of k between 3 and 6. Moreover, it is proven that G has at least 25n-4 edges for k=2, and this bound is tight. Finally, it is shown that G has at least 73n-103 edges for k=1. These results also resolve an open problem posed by Ouyang et al. in 2019.

Summary: This paper investigates the structural characterization of non-universal maximal planar graph with diameter two, identifying 10 basic graphs to generate all 25 non-universal maximal planar graphs. Additionally, it shows that maximal planar graphs with diameter two are pancyclic, except for five special cases.

Summary: This paper introduces rough set theory to solve the minimum dominating set problem of undirected graphs. By establishing an induced decision table and defining the significance of attributes based on rough set theory, a heuristic approximation algorithm is designed to improve the approximation accuracy of the minimum dominating set. The use of a cumulative strategy also helps reduce computational complexity.

Summary: This study examines the vertex-edge domination problem in unit disk graphs and proves that the decision version of the problem belongs to the NP-complete class. It also presents a simple polynomial-time 4-factor approximation algorithm and a polynomial-time approximation scheme (PTAS) for the problem in unit disk graphs.

Summary: This paper studies the problem of partitioning a given graph into three independent sets with minimizing the maximum one. The problem is proven to be NP-hard, even for bipartite graphs. A simple 3/2-approximation algorithm is presented for any 2-colorable graph, followed by an improved 75-approximation algorithm for trees. The theoretical proof of the improved algorithm provides an explicit partition approach for each case based on the cardinality of two color classes.
