Abstract

In this paper properties of disjunctive domination in some graph products are studied. We examine whether disjunctive domination number is multiplicative with respect to different graph products, that is, $\gamma_2^d\left(G_1 * G_2\right) \geq$ $\gamma_2^d\left(G_1\right) \gamma_2^d\left(G_2\right)$ for all graphs $G_1$ and $G_2$ or $\gamma_2^d\left(G_1 * G_2\right) \leq \gamma_2^d\left(G_1\right) \gamma_2^d\left(G_2\right)$ for all graphs $G_1$ and $G_2$ where $*$ denotes lexicographic, tensor, strong or Cartesian product of graphs. Some other inequalities involving disjunctive domination number of product graphs and the graphs attaining these inequalities are also given.
