However, this paper argues that she is still prejudiced against by her new friends because she is considered to be a Jewess by blood. So her flight from her father is not an escape from bondage but a plunge into another kind of bondage.展开更多

文摘A subset S of vertices of a graph G with no isolated vertex is a total restrained dominating set if every vertex is adjacent to a vertex in S and every vertex in V (G) S is also adjacent to a vertex in V (G) S. The total restrained domination number of G is the minimum cardinality of a total restrained dominating set of G. In this paper we initiate the study of total restrained bondage in graphs. The total restrained bondage number in a graph G with no isolated vertex, is the minimum cardinality of a subset of edges E such that G E has no isolated vertex and the total restrained domination number of G E is greater than the total restrained domination number of G. We obtain several properties, exact values and bounds for the total restrained bondage number of a graph.
