摘要
Fricke, Hedetniemi, Hedetniemi, and Hutson asked whether every tree with domination number gamma has at most 2(gamma) minimum dominating sets. Bien gave a counterexample, which allows us to construct forests with domination number gamma and 2.0598(gamma) minimum dominating sets. We show that every forest with domination number gamma has at most 2.4606(gamma) minimum dominating sets, and that every tree with independence number alpha has at most 2(alpha-1) + 1 maximum independent sets.
