The double domination number (total $2$-domination number) of a digraph $D$ is the minimum cardinality of a double dominating set (total $2$-dominating set) in $D$. In this work, we investigate these concepts which can be considered as two extensions of double domination in graphs to digraphs, along with the concepts $2$-limited packing and total $2$-limited packing which have close relationships with the above-mentioned concepts.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2019-07-23T21:23:40.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "dual problems", "double dominating set", "double domination number", "minimum cardinality", "close relationships" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
