Abstract

Given a graph G=(V,E), a perfect dominating set is a subset of vertices V′⊆V(G) such that each vertex v∈V(G)\V′ is dominated by exactly one vertex v′∈V′. An efficient dominating set is a perfect dominating set V′ where V′ is also an independent set. These problems are usually posed in terms of edges instead of vertices. Both problems, either for the vertex or edge variant, remains NP-Hard, even when restricted to certain graphs families. We study both variants of the problems for the circular-arc graphs, and show efficient algorithms for all of them.
