摘要
Vizing conjectured that gamma (G square H) >= gamma (G) gamma (H) for every pair G, H of graphs, where "square" is the Cartesian product, and gamma (G) the domination number of the graph G. Denote by gamma(i) (G) the maximum, over all independent sets I in G, of the minimal number of vertices needed to dominate I. We prove that gamma(G square H) >= gamma(i)(G)gamma(H). Since for chordal graphs gamma(i) = gamma, this proves Vizing's conjecture when G is chordal. (C) 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
