Abstract

Let D = (V;A) be a finite simple directed graph (digraph). A function f : V ? {-1,1} is called a twin signed k-dominating function (TSkDF) if f (N-[v]) ? k and f (N+[v]) ? k for each vertex v ? V. The twin signed k-domination number of D is ?* sk(D) = min{?(f)?f is a TSkDF of D}. In this paper, we initiate the study of twin signed k-domination in digraphs and present some bounds on ?* sk(D) in terms of the order, size and maximum and minimum indegrees and outdegrees, generalising some of the existing bounds for the twin signed domination numbers in digraphs and the signed k-domination numbers in graphs. In addition, we determine the twin signed k-domination numbers of some classes of digraphs.
