A $k$-CEC graph is a graph $G$ which has CONNECTED DOMINATION NUMBER $\gamma_{c}(G) = k$ and $\gamma_{c}(G + uv) < k$ for every $uv \in E(\overline{G})$. A $k$-CVC graph $G$ is a $2$-CONNECTED graph with  $\gamma_{c}(G) = k$ and $\gamma_{c}(G - v) < k$ for any $v \in V(G)$. A graph is said to be maximal $k$-CVC if it is both $k$-CEC and $k$-CVC. Let $\delta$, $\kappa$, and $\alpha$ be the minimum degree, connectivity, and independence NUMBER of $G$, respectively. In this work, we prove that for a maximal $3$-CVC graph, if $\alpha = \kappa$, then $\kappa = \delta$. We additionally consider the class of maximal $3$-CVC graphs with $\alpha < \kappa$ and $\kappa < \delta$, and prove that every $3$-CONNECTED maximal $3$-CVC graph when $\kappa < \delta$ is Hamiltonian CONNECTED.

In this paper, we investigate DOMINATION NUMBER as well as signed DOMINATION NUMBERs of Cay(G: S) for all cyclic group G of order n, where n ϵ {pm, pq} and S = {k < n: gcd(k, n) = 1}. We also introduce some families of CONNECTED regular graphs 􀀀 such that S (􀀀 ) ϵ {2, 3, 4, 5}.

Let G = (V; E) be a simple graph. A subset S  V (G) is a dominating set of G if every vertex in V (G) n S is adjacent to at least one vertex in S: The DOMINATION NUMBER of graph G; denoted by (G); is the minimum size of a dominating set of vertices V (G): Let G1 and G2 be two disjoint copies of graph G and f: V (G1)! V (G2) be a function. Then a functigraph G with function f is denoted by C(G; f); its vertices and edges are V (C(G; f)) = V (G1) [ V (G2) and E(C(G; f)) = E(G1) [ E(G2) [ f vu j v 2 V (G1); u 2 V (G2); f(v) = u g; respectively. In this paper, we investigate DOMINATION NUMBER of comple-ments of functigraphs. We show that for any CONNECTED graph G; (C(G; f)) ⩽ 3: Also we provide conditions for the function f in some graphs such that (C(G; f)) = 3: Finally, we prove if G is a bipartite graph or a CONNECTED k regular graph of order n ⩾ 4 for k 2 f 2; 3; 4 g and G = 2 f K3; K4; K5; H1; H2 g; then (C(G; f)) = 2.

A subset $D$ of the vertex set $V(G)$ in a graph $G$ is a point-set dominating set (or, in short, psd-set) of $G$ if for every set $S\subseteq V- D$, there exists a vertex $v\in D$ such that the induced subgraph $\langle S\cup \{v\}\rangle$ is CONNECTED.  The minimum cardinality of a psd-set of $G$ is called the point-set DOMINATION NUMBER of $G$. In this paper, we establish two sharp lower bounds for point-set DOMINATION NUMBER of a graph in terms of its diameter and girth. We characterize graphs for which lower bound of point set DOMINATION NUMBER is attained in terms of its diameter. We also establish an upper bound and give some classes of graphs which attains the upper bound of point set DOMINATION NUMBER.

A function $f:V\rightarrow \{0,1,2\}$ on a signed graph $S=(G,\sigma)$  where $G = (V,E)$ is a Roman dominating function(RDF) if $f(N[v]) = f(v) + \sum_{u \in N(v)} \sigma(uv)f(u) \geq 1$ for all $v\in V$ and for each vertex $v$ with $f(v)=0$ there is a vertex $u$ in $N^+(v)$ such that $f(u) = 2$. The weight of an RDF $f$ is given by $\omega(f) =\sum_{v\in V}f(v)$ and the minimum weight among all the RDFs on $S$ is called the Roman DOMINATION NUMBER $\gamma_R(S)$. Any RDF on $S$ with the minimum weight is known as a $\gamma_R(S)$-function. In this article we obtain certain bounds for $ \gamma_{R} $ and characterise the signed graphs attaining small values for $ \gamma_R. $
