Abstract

Let $G=(V,E)$ be a simple graph. A set $D\subseteq V$ is a strong dominating set of $G$, if for every vertex $x\in V\setminus D$ there is a vertex $y\in D$ with $xy\in E(G)$ and $deg(x)\leq deg(y)$. The strong domination number $γ_{st}(G)$ is defined as the minimum cardinality of a strong dominating set. In this paper, we study the effects on $γ_{st}(G)$ when $G$ is modified by operations on vertex and edge of $G$.
