Abstract

Let 𝐺 = (𝑉, 𝐸) be a simple undirected graph with order n. The inverse, or complement, of a graph 𝐺 is denoted by 𝐺̅and is obtained by filling in all the remaining edges needed to form a complete graph while removing all previously existing edges. Equivalently, 𝑉 (𝐺) = 𝑉 (𝐺̅) and E(𝐺̅) = E(Kn) − E(G) and also |𝐸(𝐺̅)| = ( 𝑛 2 ) − |𝐸(𝐺)|. A domination polynomial of an inverse graph of G is given as 𝐷(𝐺̅, 𝑥 ) = ∑ 𝑑(𝐺̅, 𝑥 )𝑥 𝑛 𝑖 𝑖=𝛾(𝐺̅) , where 𝑑(𝐺̅, 𝑥 ) is the number of all dominating sets of 𝐺̅with size 𝑖 and γ(𝐺̅) is the minimum domination number of 𝐺̅. In this paper, we introduce a generating function called a domination polynomial for inverse dominating sets of cycle, star, wheel graphs, and triangular book graphs. Also, the bounds of the minimum dominating number γ(G) discussed with their corresponding inverse of the minimum dominating number γ(𝐺̅).
