  • Abstract
    The k -domination number of a graph is the cardinality of a smallest set of vertices such that every vertex not in the set is adjacent to at least k vertices of the set. We prove two bounds on the k -domination number of a graph, inspired by two conjectures of the computer program Graffiti.pc. In particular, we show that for any graph with minimum degree at least 2 k − 1 , the k -domination number is at most the matching number.
