Edge Domination in Hypergraph

Abstract

In this paper we define the concept of edge domination in hypergraphs. We characterize minimal edge dominating sets in hypergraphs. We also prove that a set of vertices S of a hypergraph is a dominating set iff S* is an edge dominating set in the dual hypergraph. We also prove a necessary and sufficient condition under which the edge domination number of a hypergraph increases when a vertex is removed from the hypergraph. We also give some examples of edge dominating set.
