Exact Algorithms for Dominating Set 2005; Fomin, Grandoni, Kratsch DIETER KRATSCH UFM MIM – LITA, Paul Verlaine University, Metz, France Keywords and Synonyms Connected dominating set Problem Definition The dominating set problem is a classical NP-hard optimization problem which fits into the broader class of covering problems. Hundreds of papers have been written on this problem that has a natural motivation in facility location. Definition 1 For a given undirected, simple graph G = (V ; E) a subset of vertices D V is called a dominating set if every vertex u 2 V  D has a neighbor in D. The

minimum dominating set (MDS) problem is to find a minimum dominating set of G, i. e. a dominating set of G of minimum cardinality. Problem 1 (MDS) Input: Undirected simple graph G = (V ; E). Output: A minimum dominating set D of G. Various modifications of the dominating set problem are of interest, some of them obtained by putting additional constraints on the dominating set such as, for example, requesting it to be an independent set or to be connected. In graph theory there is a huge literature on domination dealing with the problem and its many modifications (see e. g.[9]). In graph algorithms the MDS problem and some of its modifications like Independent Dominating Set and Connected Do
