Semipaired Domination in Some Subclasses of Chordal Graphs
Michael A. Henning ; Arti Pandey ; Vikash Tripathi ;
Date 31 Aug 2020
AbstractA dominating set $D$ of a graph $G$ without isolated vertices is called semipaired dominating set if $D$ can be partitioned into $2$-element subsets such that the vertices in each set are at distance at most $2$. The semipaired domination number, denoted by $gamma_{pr2}(G)$ is the minimum cardinality of a semipaired dominating set of $G$. Given a graph $G$ with no isolated vertices, the extsc{Minimum Semipaired Domination} problem is to find a semipaired dominating set of $G$ of cardinality $gamma_{pr2}(G)$. The decision version of the extsc{Minimum Semipaired Domination} problem is already known to be NP-complete for chordal graphs, an important graph class. In this paper, we show that the decision version of the extsc{Minimum Semipaired Domination} problem remains NP-complete for split graphs, a subclass of chordal graphs. On the positive side, we propose a linear-time algorithm to compute a minimum cardinality semipaired dominating set of block graphs. In addition, we prove that the extsc{Minimum Semipaired Domination} problem is APX-complete for graphs with maximum degree $3$.
