Broadcast Domination of Triangular Matchstick Graphs and the Triangular Lattice (1804.07812v1)

Published 20 Apr 2018 in math.CO

Abstract: Blessing, Insko, Johnson and Mauretour gave a generalization of the domination number of a graph $G=(V,E)$ called the $(t,r)$ broadcast domination number which depends on the positive integer parameters $t$ and $r$. In this setting, a vertex $v \in V$ is a broadcast vertex of transmission strength $t$ if it transmits a signal of strength $t-d(u,v)$ to every vertex $u \in V$, where $d(u,v)$ denotes the distance between vertices $u$ and $v$ and $d(u,v) <t$. Given a set of broadcast vertices $S\subseteq V$, the reception at vertex $u$ is the sum of the transmissions from the broadcast vertices in $S$. The set $S \subseteq V$ is called a $(t,r)$ broadcast dominating set if every vertex $u \in V$ has a reception strength $r(u) \geq r$ and for a finite graph $G$ the cardinality of a smallest broadcast dominating set is called the $(t,r)$ broadcast domination number of $G$. In this paper, we consider the infinite triangular grid graph and define efficient $(t,r)$ broadcast dominating sets as those broadcasts that minimize signal waste. Our main result constructs efficient $(t,r)$ broadcasts on the infinite triangular lattice for all $t\geq r\geq 1$. Using these broadcasts, we then provide upper bounds for the $(t,r)$ broadcast domination numbers for triangular matchstick graphs when $(t,r)\in{(2,1),(3,1),(3,2),(4,1),(4,2),(4,3),(t,t)}$.
