Characterization of Trees with Equal Total Edge Domination and Double Edge Domination Numbers

M.H. Muddebihal, A.R. Sedamkar

Abstract


A total edge dominating set of a graph  is a set  of edges of  such that the sub graph  has no isolated edges. The total edge domination number of  denoted by, is the minimum cardinality of a total edge dominating set of. Further, the set  is said to be double edge dominating set of graph. If every edge of  is dominated by at least two edges of. The double edge domination number of, denoted by, , is the minimum cardinality of a double edge dominating set of . In this paper, we provide a constructive characterization of trees with equal total edge domination and double edge domination numbers.

Key words: Trees, Total edge domination number, Double edge domination number.
