Roman domination in graphs
TL;DR: The graph theoretic properties of this variant of the domination number of a graph G, a function f : V→{0,1,2} satisfying the condition that every vertex u is adjacent to at least one vertex v for which f(v)=2, are studied.

Irreversible k-threshold processes: Graph-theoretical threshold models of the spread of disease and of opinion
Paul Dreyer,Fred S. Roberts +1 more
TL;DR: This work considers models of the spread of disease or opinion through social networks, represented as graphs, called an irreversible k-threshold process, where a vertex enters state 1 if at least k of its neighbors are in state 1, andwhere a vertex never leaves state 1 once it is in it.
