摘要
The study of k-tuple domination problem in special graphs was presented. The complexity of the domination problem was analyzed by using the hardness results and approximation algorithms. In this regard, a linear-time algorithm for the 2-tuple domination problem in trees and in strongly chordal graphs was devised. The obtained approximation algorithm was a polynomial time algorithm whose output solution was compared with the optimal solution.
