## Abstract Let __G__ = (__V, E__) be a connected graph. A set __D__ β __V__ is a __setβdominating set__ (sdβset) if for every set __T__ β __V__ β __D__, there exists a nonempty set __S__ β __D__ such that the subgraph γ__S__ βͺ __T__γ induced by __S__ βͺ __T__ is connected.

The problem of determining the domination number of a graph is a well known NPhard problem, even when restricted to planar graphs. By adding a further restriction on the diameter of the graph, we prove that planar graphs with diameter two and three have bounded domination numbers. This implies that
## Abstract MacGillivray and Seyffarth (J Graph Theory 22 (1996), 213β229) proved that planar graphs of diameter two have domination number at most three and planar graphs of diameter three have domination number at most ten. They also give examples of planar graphs of diameter four having arbitrar
In 1975, John Sheehan conjectured that every Hamiltonian 4-regular graph has a second Hamiltonian cycle. Combined with earlier results this would imply that every Hamiltonian r-regular graph (r 3) has a second Hamiltonian cycle. We shall verify this for r 300.
## Abstract In this paper, we show that a Cayley graph for an abelian group has an independent perfect domination set if and only if it is a covering graph of a complete graph. As an application, we show that the hypercube __Q~n~__ has an independent perfect domination set if and only if __Q~n~__ i
## Abstract Let __G__ be a graph and let __S__β__V__(__G__). We say that __S__ is __dominating__ in __G__ if each vertex of __G__ is in __S__ or adjacent to a vertex in __S__. We show that every triangulation on the torus and the Klein bottle with __n__ vertices has a dominating set of cardinality
