Abstract

A set    is said to be a private edge dominating set, if it is an edge dominating set, for every has at least one external private neighbor in . Let  and  denote the minimum and maximum cardinalities, respectively, of a private edge dominating sets in a graph . In this paper we characterize connected graph for which ? q/2 and the graph for some upper bounds. The private edge domination numbers of several classes of graphs are determined.

Keywords: Edge domination; Perfect domination; Private domination; Edge irredundant sets.
