Abstract :

An isolated signed dominating function(ISDF) of a graph $G$ is a signed dominating function(SDF) $f:V(G)\rightarrow \{-1,+1 \}$ such that $f(N[w])=+1$ for at least one vertex of $w \in V(G)$. An isolated signed domination number of $G$, denoted by $\gamma_{is}(G)$, is the minimum weight of an ISDF of $G$. In this paper, we study some properties of ISDF and we give isolated signed domination number of disconnected graphs, cycles and paths.
