Abstract
A set S of vertices of a graph G = (V, E) without isolated vertex is a total dominating set if every vertex of V (G) is adjacent to some vertex in S. The total domatic number of a graph G is the maximum number of total dominating sets into which the vertex set of G can be partitioned. We show that the total domatic number of a random r-regular graph is almost surely at most r − 1, and that for 3-regular random graphs, the total domatic number is almost surely equal to 2. We also give a lower bound on the total domatic number of a graph in terms of order, minimum degree and maximum degree. As a corollary, we obtain the result that the total domatic number of an r-regular graph is at least r/(3 ln(r)).
