Minus total κ-subdomination in graphs

Let G=(V, E)be a simple graph without isolated vertices. For positive integer κ, a 3-valued function f:V → {-1, 0, 1} is said to be a minus total k-subdominating function(MTκSF)if ∑u∈N(u)f(u)≥ 1 for at least κ vertices v in G, where N(v)is the open neighborhood of v. The minus total κ-subdomination number γ-κt(G)equals the minimum weight of an MTkSF on G. In this paper, the values on the minus total κ-subdomination number of some special graphs are investigated. Several lower bounds on γ-κt of general graphs and trees are obtained.
