Abstract

'Domination in graphs' has been studied extensively and at present it is an emerging area of research in graph theory. An introduction and an extensive overview on domination in graphs and related topics is surveyed and detailed in the two books by Haynes et al. [1,2]. Product of graphs occurs naturally in discrete mathematics as tools in combinatorial constructions. They give rise to an important classes of graphs and deep structural problems. In this paper we study the dominating and total dominating functions of corona product graph of a cycle with a complete graph.
