Bounds on Total Domination Subdivision Numbers.

The domination subdivision number of a graph is the minimum number of edges that must be subdivided in order to increase the domination number of the graph. Likewise, the total domination subdivision number is the minimum number of edges that must be subdivided in order to increase the total dominat...
