A general lower bound for the domination number of cylindrical graphs

José Juan Carreño, José Antonio Martínez, María Luz Puertas

Published 2018-11-05Version 1

In this paper we present a lower bound for the domination number of the Cartesian product of a path and a cycle, that is tight if the length of the cycle is a multiple of five. This bound improves the natural lower bound obtained by using the domination number of the Cartesian product of two paths, that is the best one known so far.
