Abstract

Graph Theory has been realized as one of the most useful branches of Mathematics of recent origin with wide applications to combinatorial problems and to classical algebraic problems. Graph theory has applications in diverse areas such as social sciences, linguistics, physical sciences, communication engineering etc. The theory of domination in graphs is an emerging area of research in graph theory today. It has been studied extensively and finds applications to various branches of Science & Technology. An introduction and an extensive overview on domination in graphs and related topics is surveyed and detailed in the two books by Haynes et al [7, 8]. Frucht and Harary [6] introduced a new product on two graphs G1 and G2, called corona product denoted by G1G2. The object is to construct a new and simple operation on two graphs G1 and G2 called their corona, with the property that the group of the new graph is in general isomorphic with the wreath product of the groups of G1 and of G2 . Products are often viewed as a convenient language with which one can describe structures, but they are increasingly being applied in more substantial ways. Every branch of mathematics employs some notion of product that enables the combination or decomposition of its elemental structures. In this paper, some results on minimal signed and Roman total edge dominating functions of corona product graph of a cycle with a star are presented.
